    Chet and Noah are amazing! You won't find a better place to improve.

    +1 for Wiley's. As their sign says "If we don't have it, you don't need it!"

    Give it some time. I just went to a new set of Carbitex boots and the difference was significant. Took me a few sets to get used to it, but now the ski is more responsive. Should have switched earlier.

    Sorry I can't make it! That was a blast!

    I have skied with both the carbon and custom barlock. I switched to the custom barlock after a bout with tendonitis. Love it in the 1.10. Not only feels good, but holds up well. With the way the handles are tied, the custom barlock 13" feels like a 12" and the 13" carbon feels like a 14" to me.

    @Deanoski Glad to hear you are ok and it wasn't worse! Scary!

    Sun Valley won’t be the same without him.

    Cut it right out of the connector that attaches to the module. Had guidance from the guys at Perfect Pass

    I had some similar issues. Had to run a ground wire from the module to the block. Solved all issues. Good luck

    Gath is the name of the company. Think they are out of Australia.

    I used one of these when helmets were mandated for jump. Enough protection for contact with a ski without increasing the surface area of your head in case of a head first impact. Plus no overhang for a "bucketing" catch that torques the neck. Used it for slalom after a broken eardrum episode. Produced a little wind noise, but not bad.

    Store ski with liners out so the boots can dry.

    I just go with duct tape. Cheap yet effective.

    Would be a cool way to teach kids to cross the wake

    Here is what I use. Works great and just the right size. https://radarskis.com/products/radar-slalom-tool-kit-bathroom-bag-only

    This is one of the main things I have been working on this year. I believe the easiest way to be tall after center line is to be tall before center line. Maintain your tall rather than trying to recreate it.

    I agree with @Hallpass on increasing the rating. I recently replaced passenger seat shocks as I thought mine were done and the seat still doesn't stay up.

    +1 for the Lyric. Got one for my girls a few years ago and it made an immediate difference in their skiing. Still on the same ski and my youngest just last week said how much she loved her ski!

    Maybe not the best ever, but just saw this poster in a local burger joint. Jumping on Lake Washington back in the day!

    Yikes, that looks dicey. Are you sure you are where you want to be? I believe with the senate the holes are relatively compatible. I believe Wiley’s has extended plates. Maybe worth a call. 206-762-1300

    Sent you a PM

    +1 for carbitex.

    +1 for the pro I’d doesn’t impact your budget that much. You are a good enough skier to feel the difference. Smoother and more responsive.
