  1. LFF On 2019 67” Vapor 67” so was at 6.870 2.505 .770 9deg and on CG went with 2.502 6.881 0.740 8.5deg as it was borrowed did two sets in 78-85deg water. Felt immediately glide on 0 ball, stayed on outside edge like never before. One ball tip stays down and snappy turn. Anxious for mine to arrive.

    Original Owner 1992 Mastercraft Prostar 190. The boat with the perfect wake. Boat has been cared for and pampered with many hours of family fun and time in the slalom course. PCM Conversion 351 Ford engine with Holley 4 barrel carburetor, Power Slot Transmission, 984 Hours, starts and runs fantastic. Hot shower for the cool mornings, extra prop. Owned by mechanic, amazingly maintained she'll fire up first time - every time!

     

    Full mooring cover and Mastercraft single axle Trailer. Stored indoors or kept on covered lift, a great boat. $10,700

     

    Located in Lakes Region of New Hampshire.

  3. I second Ed's recommendations on using heavy duty PVC and SS mainline.

     

    You need to follow the instructions 100%, if not it will not work. So many people try to cut corners on the system and get failures. Also shallow/busy lakes with curious fisherman/boaters who want to anchor over the air/mainline can cause problems from experience as well.

     

    I have the original instructions if you're interested in some assistance. What part of Minnesota is your lake? How far from the Twin Cities? Drop me a line.

  4. @thager drop me an email and I'll help out the best I can. Great system, really have to follow the directions exactly. No deviations and no "engineering experiments". Been there and done that as well have seen many others mess it up royally.
  5. Great skiing Adam, great to see you rippin' it repeatedly in the course. Applying that well paid Mechanical Engineering degree and background in composite technology from pole vaulting. Can't wait to see what comes of it in production skis in the future!
  6. You can be the first on your lake to own a ski that will match the turn buoys, http://www.perfski.com

  7. John - I agree, very forgiving ski, reminds me a lot of my old 2004 X5 but even more forgiving and hooks up so nice at the buoy. Easy through 34-28 with some fin tweaking over stock (moving DFT back .030" and reducing wing angle to 8deg). This ski really rips Eddie, LOVE IT!!! Made the transition into 36-28 much more consistent in any conditions. Much improved over my 66" MPD and 66" RS-1, just love the feeling. Never been so confident on the ski this early in the season. Started back in March 20th at 195lbs, now down to 185lbs at 5'10" with easy runs of 34-28 and very consistent back-to-back 36-22.

     

    Going to do some more fin tweaking, looks like you are running the bindings further forward at 29-7/8" I'm at 27-7/8 with 11-1/2 between to keep my bow legs together wearing Fogmans.

     

    With the full radius tail and concave bottom at tail, not easy to measure DFT.

     

    Front Binding Position 28.875 Rear Binding Position 17.375

    Wing Angle 8 Length 6.829 Depth 2.494 Dist from Tail .702 Leading Edge 8.026
