  1. I like to do one of two things when passes start to feel inconsistent:

     

    Really focus on gate shots and drill it until I am running passes and regain confidence in my approach and timing

     

    Good arm pressure through wakes

     

    Rarely do I focus on other things like counter rotation or reach, maybe 2 hands on handle longer

     

    Maybe occasionally I’ll look for a glitch off the second wake towards my onside or something like that but 9 times out of ten if I straighten out my gate and stay focused on it everything else falls into place

     

    This is regardless of how many sets or fatigued I am, I have considered That my issue is fatigue and still focused on gates only to realize it’s not fatigue.

     

  2. (I have not read every post in this thread)

     

    As cool as it sounds to convert, It seems like a very technical project, I have only read about elite mechanics completing them

     

    I was able to run a couple 35’s last season off a PP and a SG, that ended a long struggle and desire for change to newer, more expensive boat, or conversion project.

    SG can be dialed to work if you just want to ski the crap out of buoys.

  3. After many years on D3 I tried to get away. After 6 years on other skiis I had to go back-they just seem to suit my style and make everything feel easier and ball count in practice is back up to into 38/34.

    I’m actually on a 66 Fusion, it’s a sick ski.

    However a really fun thing to do is get a lightly used older ski (for cheap!) then look up @Horton ’s review on it and apply the technique tips he advises on for that specific ski. I tried it with an A2, a strada, and a Fusion, this really shortens the “break in” process for a new ski.
