  1. I have to give my vote to the Carbon Omni. I think it is one of the best skis on the market! A true game changer. With what HO calls clean-edge technology, it is just effortless to ski on. It has so much less drag than other skis. Fast, predictable, easy to gain width, less work on your body - incredible ski. My family swears by it.
  2. I went skiing with @Brady early one morning. We drove out to the lake. Brady hooked up the boat trailer while I climbed in the boat. Brady backed the boat into the water. I was looking back when I noticed a buoy or something under the water to the side of the boat. I thought what is that. I looked at the truck while Brady was pulling forward and realized that there was no trailer attached to the truck! Brady didn't lock the trailer to the hitch! So when he backed in the trailer came off the hitch and just rolled into the lake! The buoy I was looking at was the trailer guide under the water with the trailer! I just started laughing! I had heard of people doing such a boner move but I didn't think Brady would be one of them! LOLOL!
  3. I just have to say that way back when I started this thread complaining that my conference in Orlando was cancelled so I can't go out to Rini's place, I had no idea that it would result in over 300 comments. That is definitely a record for me.
  4. Damn this stupid coronavirus! I was scheduled to come out to Orlando the first week of April for a work conference. I was staying two extra days so I could get some coaching from Matt Rini. I just received an email that the conference has been cancelled because of the coronavirus scare. I am pissed!! Personally I think this is being blown way out of proportion. Now it is affecting my ski plans!
  5. I think the Omni would be the perfect ski for you. It is so easy to ski yet is capable of taking you to quite short lines. It is easy to get up on and is so easy on your body because of what HO calls its clean-edge technology which eliminates much of the drag of a normal ski. Because of this it is fast and is so easy to maintain your outbound direction with a tight line. I think this ski is a real game changer.
  6. I'm not sure where you are at but I agree strongly with @Jody_Seal who said if you are above 4000 feet get the 6.2. Here in Utah we are at about 4500 and some of the lakes I ski at are close to 6000. I have to put on a different prop to get it up to the proper rpm. Altitude makes a difference.
