I would say +1 for both +hot water shower

@sagilbert I would have to say the same as @RLW ...it has been 20 years + since my wife has been back in Indiana, so I cannot say a specific MD for you to see

@sagilbert My wife is a hand therapist/OT, and she did her residency at the Indiana Hand Center in Indianapolis. Her comment when I asked her your question, was "He would have the best shot going to Indiana Hand as they set the protocols and did all the research back in the day.". Might be worth another opinion through their Center. Best of luck! I am a PT, and we own a outpatient PT clinic in WA State. Both of our advice would be vigilant with the post op rehab, and you will get through this. The question I would ask of any Ortho, would be, "what will be the ultimate effect on Lumbrical grip strength (not just global grip)."

I just want to be able to come away from a set and say, "man, my Yaw was sure off on that one!" Or, "I was a bit Pitchy on that last pass.".

@AdamCord @adamhcaldwell can I make a request? That Denali puts out a t-shirt with the picture of "Yaw, Pitch, Roll" from page 1, so us non-engineers can keep it all straight? ;)

I have also found that it helps to have a battery maintainer plugged in between outings or over winter, for the trickle charger to keep the battery closer to 100-percent. I have had expensive AGM batteries only last 1-2 years due to infrequent use of the boat without the maintainer. I have had my batteries last many more seasons now with the use of one.

@Horton yeah, I only could stand 3 "passes" free skiing. Feet just were too cold. @scotchipman just going off the dock thermometer...reads 33*. Given the fact that the last 4-5 weeks our night time temps have been 24-27*F, and day time temps have been low to mid 40's, and the lake was frozen over for about two weeks up until 6 days ago, hard to argue that 33* reading.

We skied today in the north, (north of Seattle that is...) Water 33*, Air 43*

@Jaypro we bought a lot out there (lot A5) 12 years ago as a FSBO, held onto it for about 8 years. It is beautiful out there, but pretty remote as far a business and economy. At the time we owned our lot, there were only a few homes built out there, and only a few skiers to arrange time to ski with. We thought it was beautiful, but, we also never experienced the July-August out there. We bought our lot for $25K, and sold it for the same price 4 years ago.

@Wish Thanks!!

We have a 99 SNOB with the GT-40, and I am following this very closely in the case we have anything similar happen. Anyone able to show us where the MAP sensor is located?

I have found HO has great customer service and support, as well as great products. @savaiusini and all the guys at the top of the HO Team are really committed to producing a great product, as well as pushing the tech and design of the sport forward. I can say that you wouldn't be disappointed in going HO.

@PeterAK go for it. I have a spare prop, and have a friend (thank you @Rednucleus ) that will get me his C-clamp style puller. Thank you @ALPJr for the offer!

@Gar no worries! Thanks again

@Gar sure thing! Just let me know if it works for you. Thanks! And, thanks to everyone for their thoughts!

Hey Ballers, I am looking to pickup a prop puller for our Ski Nautique, so that I have the right tools in an unfortunate opportunity of need. I have never needed to use one before, and in looking, there are the standard "C-clamp" styles, as well as the "harmonic puller kits.". Any recommendations as to either? Thanks for any advice!

@Horton great points!

Dave, I have had two recent patients who have underwent Stem Cell coupled with PRP injections, one for a knee, and one for Neck, Shoulder, and Knee. The last patient is also coupled withwacupuncture as well. Both individuals are having very favorable results. Both have gone with umbilical cell.

Water 38* and air 45* today. A bit cold

Again, @savaiusini does it again with outstanding service! I had one little part needing to be replaced, and a few emails later it is in the mail shipped same day. Sam and The HO Team Rock! Thanks Sam!

There's time for another sport besides slalom skiing and family?? ;)

@Deep11

@Deep11 also, I used a piece of 3/4" x 6" stock strapping from the hardware store to use as a "spacer" to be able to use my wing angle guages.

@Deep11 I mounted my CG fin with my standard HO wing, and, at @AdamCord suggestion, reduced my wing angle by 1* from what I was running previously. So, I setup my CG fin with my previous settings, and ran 7* rather than the prior 8*. Felt great from the first set.

I received my LFF fin about 3 weeks ago, mounted it on my HO VT-R. This time of year, I am lucky to get out to ski 1-2x/week. Previously to this CG fin, my typical average score was about -22@32 mph. In the last week, I have 5 full passes at -22@34 mph, and scored 4@-28/34mph 3x, and 5@-28/34mph 1x! I am really excited about this change. My ski finishes under the line with a ton of angle and what I feel to be less load. I am going to try it on my HO Pro next week, see how that feels. Thanks @AdamCord !
