Just received Radar RTP in size xl/xxl after i gave up using m/l (much too small) I'm a size 9 (42). Amazingly, xl/xxl is a bit on the tight side aswell. So, does the rubber stretch with time? I managed to push an empty Corona bottle in the binding, hoping it will help.. Grateful for any input.

I always ski behind an outboard engine boat and although I FEEL pretty stacked, i feel that my 67 ski gets pushed around quite a bit across the wakes (which are pretty big) Question:would a 69 ski feel more knife-like across the wakes at 26 mph?

...WOW! Great fun, easy to water start and for a moment there i felt like a pro (at 24/26 mph). Even though i tried to play around with the balance point, the ski wouldn't let me. It was like she was saying "i feel what you're trying to do but i'm sticking right here". My Senate Alloy will probably get far less water time from here on out. 40year old free skier (never skied a buoy all my life, probably never will)

If you are on the toes of your back foot because your back knee is bent & your front knee is straight / hips are back / shoulders forward - it's catastrophe. Needless to say, i fall into the latter group... Thank you for your input, highly appreciated! Kristoffer (Norway)

Well I guess that settles it, thanks. I'll have to think about taking up pilates or something..

So last time i skied I realised that I was balancing on the balls of my feet on the back foot (the heel was not touching the base). I'm guessing this is due to lack of stretching the last twenty years (!) and is probably a big "DON'T". Am i right?
