  1. What I struggle to understand is over 600 views and only 2 comments? Do people not think this is important? Anybody who has done the Safe Sport training want to comment? Cheers Ali
  2. Anybody with some 2nd hand jump skis they want to move on. Need to be > 80 inches. Asking for a friend, I am not taking up jumping!! Cheers Ali
  3. @lhoover looks great!! Could we add incremental speeds for when you slow boat down from official tournament speeds? Cheers Ali
  4. In my opinion, if you are going to Florida in Jan/Feb go to south Florida, so another vote for Eden!
  5. First viewing 4.5. Slow motion frame by frame ski comes inside, so 4. Great skiing though, as she turned 3 looks like she is going to run the whole pass but ski just hesitates as it is about to complete the turn which costs her. Cheers Ali

    CG fin

    I just ordered a 2nd LFF for my wife. She needs to try a new ski and by having a 2nd fin I can put it on a new ski without having to change out her existing fin and set up. I know I can easily resell it afterwards. Cheers Ali
  8. @C5Quest 5'7" 165 pounds 66 feels great, last 6 skis I have been on have been 66. Cheers Ali
  9. @C5Quest what the ski was set up with when it got here. I assume @brooks sets every ski up before sending it out;-). 3 of us on those numbers or round about 65, 66 and a 67 Cheers Ali
  10. Switched 10 days ago from 2018 66 to a 2020 66. I had just run 1@12M/55 for a new tournie best so it seemd like a good time to change skis. Tried 2 sets on stock fin (Brooks set it up) then changed to CG fin. Both fins were at 6.957, 0.777, 2.445 wing at 9 binding at 29.5. Liked the ski right away, onside turn then building angle into wake was awesome. Tip stayed down more than on 2018. Within a couple of sets felt like my scores were equivalent to '18 ski. Easy transition from '18 and this is coming from a skier who feels weird when I change a palm protector. Even after my ass drops back on my offside turn and tip goes up (regular issue for me) I just get the tip back down and the ski builds angle into the wakes. Only change I have made is to move boots forward 1/8 and ski still feels great maybe even better. Ran my 13m both sets today and got outside 2 at 12m and it was real windy. Shame it is September, I think there is more there. Thanks Chris Rossi and Brooks, this is a great ski!! Cheers Ali
  11. Damn you @Bdecker , you made me order a 66 as your 67 will be too big for me to steal!
  12. I needed a visitor ski and I got a great deal on a new HO Omni with bindings from Wiley. My nephew was first to try it and loved it, but after only 5 sets the ski started delaminating badly on either side of the tip. Sent Wiley an email with a few photos and they talked to HO. HO sent a new ski direct to me. Had it within a week. Great service from Wiley and HO. We all know things can go wrong. What is important is how shops/companies deal with it. Cheers Ali
  13. @jercrane Dubes is my home site and we are super friendly, the more kids that come the better. She can ski grassroots and she will be guaranteed at least 2 passes each round. Great burgers for lunch too!! Any questions let me know Cheers Ali
  14. @paul413ski I was order #281, they arrived on 09/04. I would check with the Adams. Cheers Ali
  15. Another skier on our pond on the CG fin. LFF on a D3 Quest 45. As mentioned previously the fin needed a little filing at the very front to get it far enough forward in the D3 fin block. I set it to stock. This was for a 28/30mph 15 off women skier. She has only had 1 set in 62F water and ran 2 real smooth 30mph passes. She said "it just makes everything smoother". Cheers Ali
  16. When we lived in France I used https://sports-service-proshop.com/ which is in Lacanau in SW France. Great place to ski too. Email them questions in English if you want.
  17. Been skiing and driving one for 2 months. We are skiing '16 6L Carbon Pro, '14 6L SN200 and the SN '19 this season. I like the SN '19 wake better than the 200 at 28 and 32 off. Pull feels the same at B1. I prefer the Centurion wakes very slightly. My wife is skiing at 15off 28mph and 30Mph. She loves the Centurion wakes but interestingly she likes the wakes of the SN '19 just as much. Some things I like in the interior some things I don't, like most boats! I would recommend any of the boats we have been skiing this year. Cheers Ali
  18. I am running the standard wing on my vapor at 8. Sounds like I should be trying something smaller. Where is best place to get one?
  19. What order # were you guys? @Chunkyd @One_Ski @BlueSki
  20. I was in the boat, the 38 off was a great pass. Great skiing!
  21. @Bdecker brought mine back from Nationals. @brooks had set it up. Skied up to my average off the dock first set. 3rd set ran 32off/13m on home water for the first time this year. I was laughing going from 5 to 6 I was so early. So smooth and fast and keeps getting angle. It is the real deal, I may have to give @Bdecker a cheque. Though he was being optimistic thinking he would get money from a Scotsman.
  22. Glad it worked out. Shame that a Carbon Pro is not in your future though ;-)
  23. A3 for me, was faster. The S2 was smooth when I tried it but I always found myself skiing narrow, could not get the width I liked
  24. @ozski what lake is that?
