I have had really good luck using Star Brite Waterproofing Spray I use it every year when I prep for the season

Welcome... you may be having symptoms of tendonitis lots of stuff out their on it.

I struggled with this for years… I have a 10.5 4EEE foot so often when I get the RTP where it needed to be on the ski my foot was cramped into an uncomfortable place. For years I used Wiley RTP. A few years back I got to borrow SKI with a Radar ARTP Vector I really liked it. Was hard getting used to my foot laying on the ski vs the Radar having a nice padding. I recently switched to the ARTP BOA Boot and love it. When you’re carving there is a unique feeling of placement and I feel really settled into the ski. I truly think this helped me ski better too.

When your wife comes down and says WTF ... I want to have sex and your playing with your waterski?

Not sure what I'm seeing here hopefully no-one was hurt...... But that's Awesome!

I grease mine monthly I promise my trailer is under their!

 

 

I have been thinking about trying this out. Just now learning where all the information is just to find the events. Do you just get thrown in the water and go or can you get instruction / coaching

I once used a phone and didn’t like the results, so I purchased a used Nikon D5300 DSLR that shoots 1080/60p HD video and mounted it to a DJI RSC 2 Gimbal Stabilizer Pro

The outcome is great but its rather big rig if you will compare to a phone.

 

I own a Malibu Response and for sure have had several instances where water rushed over the bow, and I took on 200 gallons of water. These where rare instances of slowing down and one of those nice wakesetters giving me a 3 foot wall of water to pass through ? That said I sure as hell never thought reversing the boat would have stopped the water from rushing in. Its hard to really understand the real situation and where the child “washed out” given the information in these articles. I certainly wouldn’t blame Malibu. I do think some of our fellow Ski boat owners all brands aside really should understand what the boat was designed for. Every time I see someone out in their ski boat in 3 foot seas I cringe…

@Clydesdale my bad...

I thought it was awesome! However my wife is sick of the only thing streaming on my TV was skiing. When it was off we went to the lake!

I just went through this and found this link to be VERY helpful. its a pretty easy job just don't get in a rush and clean everything up really good before reinstalling.
