    Mirror

    They are all flat mirrors. Convex does not work with the multiple panels. I did experiment with that. As stated above , you do not see the skier in the turns at shoreline. The original version was made for me by the Wink company up in Washington. It was just the car mirror with a stainless screw built into it. That 2” tall version was much too small , so the final product morphed into a 5” tall mirror. If anyone out there has one of these and needs parts for it , hit me up. As far as selling the whole unit , I am currently retired and out of stock. I actually bought this mirror from Steve for a friend of mine. If you ever do see advertising on BOS for Rawly Vision , that means the full time retirement gig didn’t pan out. Which I think will be highly doubtful ?
  2. Be careful , Hortons gonna hit you up to make some of his ideas if you keep this up ?. Nice looking work there.
  3. Which explains the big goose egg for the Love It team.
  4. Hey @ESPNSkier , you are an insider. Any thoughts on this ? Thanks
  5. Must be serious if a guy named Scotch gets banned from this sight. The way he ran his names together to make Scotchipman , I always figured he was Scotch Ipman. My bad.
  6. All of those years of waiting for the ice to melt have prepared you for this moment. The good news is that when your lake is ready for you , you won’t need a dry suit ? Good to see that you survived ok and are just being inconvenienced for a while.
  7. You guys must be lost , this is wood shop , the science wing is across campus , way over there.
  8. Hugedaddy asking if size matters ?? Must be a joke eh ? ? If not , the early 90’s ski brendallas are one of the narrowest older boats with killer slalom and trick ( wakeboard ) wakes. As a matter of fact , I may have one for sale for cheap in So Cal soon ?
  9. Good stuff. Worth a listen just to hear Rossi’s sound effects of a 6 liter pulling Nick Parsons at high elevation.
  10. Arkansas .....will you then become skihawg ? ? Good luck with the sale and the new pad. Thanks for all of ski knowledge you have passed on to us on this sight. ( can’t get myself to say “ thanks for all that you have passed on to us ballers “ ?. Hopefully it’s a short retirement and you get back to skiing.
  11. What a spokes person ! Love the enthusiasm that Joel throws out to us. Makes me want to de•vi•ate from my Radar.
  12. Like all of the other pro and expert skiers out there , Coles elbows are tucked to his vest all the way through his edge change. This is probably the most important move that separates them from us. Rope tension into the turn = rope tension out of the turn. It is easy to see in the first set of his video. Most intermediate skiers have an edge change / reach combination going on. Short line skiers have an edge change with both hands , then a reach when the rope gets taken by the boat. You will notice that all of the top skiers have their inside elbow still stuck to the vest and their arm coming off of the vest at 90* going into the turn. I am at your level as well , if I do a correct edge change , I run an easy 35 , if not it’s 2 or 3 buoys.
  13. Might want to consider a Goode Power vest for your return to skiing ?? They take the load off of your hands , arms , shoulders and back. I always wanted one for my bad back but kept putting it off until I wanted to ski after my shoulder surgery. I have saved well over the $600 price tag on the epidurals that I no longer get from the pain management doc. There is actually one for sale in another thread. Guys with arm injuries will sell them. Back injury people tend to hold on to them. Good luck with your recovery.
  14. Geico/BoatU.S. charges me $200 a year for the same coverage that you are looking for.
  15. If you’re near southern Canada , swing by the former home of @The_MS and you can pick up a few for free. Word on the street is that when they froze off for the final time , he left them there , packed up , and moved to Florida ???
  16. ^ looks like @ColeGiacopuzzi neighbor at Creekside.
  17. Had to pull out of the Georgia opening day challenge ☹️ Wife and I self administered the Clorox / Lysol I.V. drips yesterday and we aren’t feeling up to continuing further than the Walmart parking lot that we pulled into. Not to mention the blotches on our skin from that damn UV light that we rigged up. Guess those Covid tattoos will have to wait. On the bright side , seams as if the fish tank cleaner that we drank a few weeks back appears to have had no side affects ??
  18. Highly doubtful @skimtb would pick an administrator over a waterski industry professional. Just sayin.
  19. Covid 19 Southern Style Challenge !! - Planning a road trip to Georgia. Will take that governor up on his offer and throw out an opening day challenge. Wife and I will start the day off at the gym , get the nails and hair done , slap on a Covid 19 themed tattoo , roll a few bowling balls , then end the day with a nice full body massage. Who’s in ??
  20. Big ticket sounds like a boat ? Pre Covid days weren’t too hard to find a baller in the area to go check it out. May still be able to get someone to help ?? Bought and sold a few boats there. Felt very safe buying sight unseen after several ballers vouched for boat and seller of my last boat purchase. Promo’s are a slam dunk !!
  21. How bout dubbing in some audio @AdamCord and taking us all the way through that clip. Would be very entertaining to hear your final statement ?. Please Thank you Adam
  22. Damn that was good ^. Almost sounded like one of those daily briefings.
