  1. Used my Evo2 vest last night for first time. This vest is outstanding. Great fit, great floatation, excellent construction. Holds no water. I am between sizes and decided to go up. Glad I did. I've tried a bunch of vests over the years and this is hands down the best! Great job Stokes
  2. Am l the only one that thinks this is silly? In my mind given all of the variables involved there really can be no such thing as world record. Even with tight tolerances, the combined favorable variation of multiple variables could easily de-standardize an event and provide more favorable conditions. The slide rule guys should be the first to point this out. Rules really are to make sure we are competing in the same sport. In the real world weather and water conditions alone probably effect negative performances 10:1.

     

    World standings points should be performance based and adjusted with consideration to size and strength of competitive field. Given the nature of our sport I think that we should be doing nothing other than cheering anyone that that runs into 43 off and also thanking those that donated countless hours to put on an event to make It possible. Just my opinion

     

  3. EEC is easy test. Find friend with GT-40, borrow his for a few hours and install in your boat. If all symptoms gone you have answer, if not guess keep looking. In 1999 EEC was reprogramed to help with idle speed at start up but otherwise the same. Lots of stuff on Planet Nautique if you do search.
  4. @horton - I think the question that floats around is “have we been recently duped” or is it just a smoldering issue. With the weight that we place on cyber information, keeping this site clean is the only way to maintain credibility. Thanks
  5. @Chris Rossi despite the fact that my 2018 vapor pro build “68 is my favorite ski of all time I couldn’t resist pulling the trigger on 67” pro build senate this winter. Skiing 32 @34 and at 225 # I’m upper end for the vapor, but thinking that .2 extra width of senate may be the boom! I’ve tried 69” vapor but always come back to 68. Excited to get season started
  6. @Horton Thanks John for stepping up and giving the WF a rip because for many of us 300$ is out of budget to take a test drive. A couple of questions

    -Did you feel more acceleration from ski?

    -Did you feel less Drag?

    -How much forward binding movement are we talking about to compensate for the small fin area and forward fin.
