  1. Maybe the skiers should have the flag attached to their heads!
  2. @Texas6‌ when installing the zip ties, attach your handle to something sturdy so you can apply tension. While under tension, tighten the zip ties. This way when you load the rope while skiing the zip ties will not pop.
  3. @MISkier‌ twcues@gci.net ArmGuard Thomas Wayne
  4. No, but I do have a right foot rear size 8 with plate if anyone's interested. http://www.ski-it-again.com/php/skiitagain.php?topic=Search&category=Bindings&postid=28609
  5. Be very careful, I think most of dual lock types are designed for static applications and can easily let go when flexed.
  6. You're welcome. The brains behind this tip is Will Bush. My boat tracks exceptionally well.
  7. @cragginshred‌ Gath Helmets are the ones most slalom skiers use. Close fitting at the face helps prevent water from grabbing the edge during a crash.
  8. Heard the Nautique electric boat was working on better batteries. Maybe now the Tesla has passed along 200+ patents it will help everyone in the electric vehicle arena.
  9. Are you sure the kills with with the lanyard hasn't been dislodged ? Newer boats the touch of the key and it cranks until it fires up, so if the kill switch has been bumped it will continually crank and not fire.
  10. @akale15‌ Not sure if you electrical background would cross over but MasterCraft and several othe boat manufacturers are in Tenn.
  11. @racerdjs You are welcome. Will Bush is the brains behind that tip! Thanks Will, my boat is incredible since you and the crew worked on it !
  12. Reflex good ! Dual lock bad! I like Dave Goode and think him very innovative. I was in Powershells starting way back with the 9500. He invented Powershells to work with his skis before they had threaded inserts. Dual lock was the only way to go. Now his skis have inserts. I love my Nano One with Reflex front and R-style rear.
  13. Suggest you list it on Ski-it-again.com if you haven't already.
  14. I saw a blue one go 4@41@36 recently! Not sure if it's just a new color for '15 or if the ski is different. Could have been just a custom one off color
  15. By the way - Just to get the thread back on track, this thread is about my Promo ProStar that's for sale. Personally dialed in by Will Bush and Marcus Brown, this baby is awesome!
  16. I think all the boat companies use standard parts unless customized is required. Using standard parts sometimes requires field modification necessitated by the end users application. Strictly customer preference, just like those that like a lot of rudder load and others don't want any.
  17. The 2014 MasterCraft ProStar with Ilmor 5.7L uses 5W-30 full synthetic Pennzoil Platimum. So does the 6.2L
  18. @Jibbo‌ I don't see that the Wakeye app allows for video stabilization, did I miss it?
  19. White cuff for slalom, black for trick. R style rear rocks!
  20. @Jibbo‌ I blocked the wind and it didn't help. AE/AF lock helped but not great. I switched from my iPhone 5s to my iPhone 4s and the problem is solved. Must be something in the i5 that's the problem. I really like the Wakeye a lot ! Great product. Hope you can fix the i5 issue.
  21. @skihart‌ Yes, the heel about an inch up. The little notch in the plate is suppose to be the same as the rear heel of your front boot. When your rear boot is attached it's impossible to get a good measurement of the rear of your front heel. With the rear boot removed and the front boot slightly loose, place the plate on the ski and measure from the notch to the tail down the edge of the ski to the factory spec. Then clamp it in place and slide the boot to the same dimension measuring from the bulbous area of the shell at the rear. Tighten the front boot down. Now when you install your rear boot you'll always measure from the notch down the edge of the ski to the tail. Always keep your front boot in this location and you'll be able to move the plate is 1/16" steps on the dual lock always measuring from the notch. When making future adjustment of the front boot requires removing the plate an indexing, moving the rear boot does not.
  22. Just for fun I thought I'd see how many new ProStar's pics we can get posted on BOS. Whether it's yours or not, let's see 'em. Any PB's to report would be good too.
  23. @Timber‌ Great pic! Let's see more of that ProStar!
  24. @Colebrah‌ Thanks, that means a lot coming from an extreme shortline skier like you. Happy you set your new PB behind my new ProStar! Yours makes the eight new PB in just two events! Thanks again for hosting the Wilson Bros. clinic! Great event set up by Steve Cesnauskas at Pacific Slalom. I think it was a great success for MasterCraft Boats, Pacific Slalom, Radar Skies, and the Wilson Bros. That was terrific to watch Brooks and KC ski and coach, everyone loved them and their style. It was amazing to watch KC run up the line through 2@41 behind my boat. I should have had him sign it! Damn!
