    US Gear Handles

    in News & Other Stuff

    @MDB1056 all of the above. They are very durable, the rubber is grippy, they were made in various diameters, there are no end caps because the ends are an extension of the handle as they turn back in to make the yoke. This is one of the most outstanding features, which really eliminates mis-grabs or mishandles at the ends. You can accidently grab the curved end of the handle and still get leverage. Plus!!!!! THEY ALL FLOAT!!!!

    When you get a new ski how do you set it up?

    It is sort of an unfair question as the answer is certainly a blend, and it is ski company specific. Goode, for all their shortcomings, have always seemed to be the most accurate in their advertised stock setting, IMHO. The rest seemed to be quite a ways off. A lot of time the pro coaches or ski brand athletes will give you some "alternate" numbers.

    Trailer bunks - gatorbak bunk?

    we actually protect the hull instead of the trailer bunks. We have been very successful with the 3M paint protector / Rockguard:

    2015 Prostar, ours lasted at least 5 years (sold the boat with it still on and in good shape) and saved our hull from having to repaired, no wear whatsoever. We just put a strip on each side where the front bunks would hit and wear the gel coat.

     

    Our boat goes on and off the trailer at least 6 times a week, April - October.

     

    How much would you donate to support a webcast event weekend ?

    I would pay if I were cooped up because of weather. Otherwise, I mostly watch the replays because the tournaments are on when I am at the lake skiing, or I have other things going on during a weekend day. I will catch tidbits live, when the opportunity presents itself, but I don't sit down and watch it from start to finish. I will pick up on the events at night, when there is nothing else going on.

    Anybody using Graphene? I used Turtle Wax Graphene on my truck, after a lot of research on the internet, it is working great!! I am going to try it on my boat, after a coat of Meguire's Marine Wax.

    Reinvent my onside

    I would argue that even Nate and Terry, at least in those videos, hardly ever break the plane of their torso with their off hand, it is never flung behind their outside hip extended. Their offsides are a little more pronounced and over the top, but they are not counter rotating, they stay pretty square.
