@6balls thats super useful. I’ve gone back and forth and the need to go 36 because I’m not in a tournament.

@Horton Thank you. I guess that was really the question I was trying to ask.

@jgills88 There are a good amount of talented skiers at the lake I'm at so that might be a good idea.

 

@ral I'm starting at 32. I started skiing the course only this year. I'm 33. I definitely have a lot to learn and improve on myself. I've spent a few days with a coach, and it's been a huge help.

So I'm very new to skiing. I'm currently on a carbon omni, and am pretty consistently 15 off passes @ 34, and less consistent @ 36mph. I'm ready to move to a more high end ski or better performing ski, but I honestly don't know where to start. Cost really isn't big issue. I don't know if I should just go for a full on high end comp ski or is there something in the middle. I'm opening to any input or thoughts. Thanks

I 2nd The boarding School in Orlando area. I was just there this week for a day and half and had an absolutely amazing time. Freddie was super cool, and an awesome coach.

@keithh2oskier I made sure to set everything to the factory setting before using it. So I know I'm at least at that baseline.

So I'm pretty new to water skiing. I recently just bought a new ski, and I feel like the ski is over rotating coming around the buoy. I did a little research and it seems like moving my bindings forward would help correct some of this issue. My question is how much do I move them? Do I start with 1/2 in? Less than that, more?

 

Any advice help

@Rednucleus I'm pumped. Settled on a HO Carbon omni

@escmanaze I just bought a ski today. I used that KD just because it was there, and I just wanted to see if I’d like skiing. It’s way to big for me (68-69 i’m 150lb) and everyone says it’s not the best ski to learn on, so hopefully my new ski will help my learning.

@KRoundy it’s all new to me so I don’t know any better, haha.

@RGilmore There are buoys on each side. Left hand are a little closer. Right hand are standard.

 

@Rednucleus There are a few very good skiers at the lake we're skiing at that have being coaching us along and it's really helped.

A friend of my mine asked a few months back if I wanted to learn to slalom ski with him and I jumped at the chance. I've been on a ski maybe 5 times in my life, and that was about 10 years ago, but it's starting to make sense. We're running 30mph -15 but going for the closer buoys (I think there about 3ft closer).
