  1. easy mod to secure the phone in the cheap mounting clamp more securely/prevent dislodging from slack hits.

     

    Reverse (upside down) the vinyl/plastic pull tab on the tension bar.

     

    Place two zip-ties around the bottom rim of the bracket (the phone edge will be behind these).

     

    In effect three claws are created. Beta tested with another skier’s i-phone whom takes slack hits about 4x/set; still has his phone.n7ux63uwr3pj.jpg

  2. CORRECT CRAFT TO REPRESENT MARINE INDUSTRY AT NATIONAL PARTY CONVENTIONS

     

    ORLANDO, FL (May 6, 2016) – Today Correct Craft CEO Bill Yeargin announced that Correct Craft will be partnering with the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) to represent both the marine industry and Correct Craft at this summer’s Republican and Democratic National Conventions.

     

    During the conventions, the Correct Craft team will share both the significant impact of the marine industry on the U.S. economy and the unique Correct Craft story. At both conventions the Correct Craft team will have at least one boat on display in-water for convention attendees and press to enjoy.

     

    Yeargin stated, “We look forward to working with the NMMA during both party conventions to share our Correct Craft story and educate attendees on the – often overlooked – impact of the marine industry on the U.S. economy.” “We believe that the numerous Governors, Legislators, elected officials, dignitaries, and press will enjoy learning about both our industry and Correct Craft. We know they will enjoy the boats!” added Yeargin.

     

    About Correct Craft: Celebrating 91 years of excellence in the marine industry, Correct Craft is a Florida-based company with global operations. The Correct Craft family includes Nautique, Centurion, Supreme, Bass Cat, and Yar-Craft boat companies, Pleasurecraft Marine Engine Group, and Aktion Parks.

  3. a bit off thread but further evidence of Correct Craft's; commitment to the water sports industry in general.

  4. laser temp gun read each cylinder above/near the plug. may be clogged cooling passages/head (corrosion/gunk/fragmented impeller blade, etc.) Check them all with engine fully warm at idle.You'll get an idea pretty quick if any cylinder or more is way out of CHT range.
  5. To corroborate @lpskier; yes, it was an awesome T3 experience at LaPoint Ski Park!

    Kris LaPoint and Jeff Rodgers were great hosts and of course provided a wealth of experience in coaching tips.

     

    Apparently Square One Distribution has strong intention to continue work with Kris, Jeff, and the rest of the AM T-series skis R&D team to evolve and produce great skis.

     

    It seems like much innovation is taking place in the slalom ski market and the choices in finding one’s preferred ski is growing. The T3 must be added to that list; it’s an incredible ski!

     

    Certainly I’m not nearly qualified to endorse a ski, but feel confident that a lot of these blue T3’s will be showing up at many lakes…globally!

  6. @Waternut, thanks for the data and the suggestions. Maybe a few less entries in the list will result in less scrolling. I’ll do it if I can format the “type in" fields to result in the right numbers, though if the number is in the list it is convenient to just click on it.

     

    Insofar as speed and line length I concur, but thought the comments field would suffice; e.g. PB=3@38off/34.2, etc.

     

    @lpskier, John I’m not sure why your entries wouldn’t be submitted. I suspect some field entries were missed; all are “required” except comments, height, weight, and front binding type. Likely the “technique” (caliper) entries didn’t have a circle filled for each column of every row (4 rows x 6 columns). The “percent complete” status bar at the bottom will be removed as it reads "100% complete" inaccurately all the time.

     

    Perhaps try again if you prefer, thanks!

     

  7. Another attempt at an open sharing ski settings log.

     

    Mainly interested in what others end up with on the T3, but all data welcome.

     

    Of course DFT comparisons will vary but may still provide a general idea; length and depth comparisons should be close.

     

    It is likely to get all jacked up, I believe @Horton tried it before with no reasonable results, but worth another go?

     

    The form is easy to complete, write-in fields in place where needed (such as dual depths/Denali).

     

    Two links; one to the data entry form, the other to the resultant data log

    Thanks for contributing.

     

  8. The front Supershell will require some acclimation. Determining how much freedom of upper cuff articulation is key based on upper buckle tension and liner thickness, etc. Also some have reported more tip pressure by comparison.

     

    Suggest you try sizing them first, e.g., my foot is US 11 but in an 8 Supershell with Intuition liner (heat molded). It’s very snug, but the sense of connection is much better, and after a few “break-in” sets the ischemia resolves. If currently using Intuition liners in the Powershells, it may be best to start with those in the Reflex.

     

    Ultimately the Reflex R-style RB is a great choice imo. The inherent shape of it though allows a bit of medial-lateral rocking motion at the forefoot. This can be fixed by using a heat gun to flatten the forefoot (on a baking tin) and then an extra T-nut over the lateral toe portion to hold it down firmly on the mounting plate. This will also help prevent the screw mounts from working loose. Moving the rear large T-nut to the very back of the heel helps too.

     

    The easiest transition would probably be Reflex FB/Wiley RB (not too snug). Personally I think the Reflex RB is safer though from the release aspect.

     

    Be sure you dry test your FB release setting several times and not too much tension to release.

     

  9. Could be mistaken but reasonably certain all PCM 6.0L 409’s have the closed cooling system as standard (not optional) equipment. I assume this is due to an iron block combined with aluminum heads such that the anti-corrosive properties of the closed cooling fluid is warranted.

     

    Many advantages to the closed cooling system; the added cost is inherent with this PCM 6.0, so no real disadvantage.

     

    The 6.0 is hands down a better power package than the 5.7 in the SN 200, not so much in the Carbon Pro (5.7 is fine for slalom)

     

    Maybe Jody Seal can chime in.

     

  10. Given all other settings unchanged; does adding tail rocker, e.g., Rockerblock (30), tend to result in less tip pressure (pre-turn in particular)? The turn radius certainly seems less and the hook up smoother but also feels like less tip in and out of the apex (67 GT)

     

     

    So what are the more specific effects of adding tail rocker?
