  1. The Goode Universal Powerplate, which interlocks on, allows you to mount any binding also. Can most likely use the interlock you have on now or at least some of it.
  2. FAT Setting = C Also, seems more dramatic for bigger guys at 34 than 36 since you tend to get deeper there. Even skiing 35mph in practice I like B better, but seem to migrate back to C (FAT) at 34. Trying to fix the real issue now, but never that easy. Especially when I only ski every 3 weeks.
  3. @skiboyny Tell Zero Off that before a big strong guy skis and see if it agrees.

    I thought I only saw two wings at cedar ridge on his ski. George Levien had like 6 though to make up the difference on his. Seems irrelevant. The ski looked awesome and so did Chet. Sure it would work well with one standard wing too.
  5. @mlusa Bailey says she is glad to help you test whatever you need although she wouldn't want to use the smaller rope in tournaments. She is 5'7", 117lbs now and doesn't even turn 14 until late December.(Really bad ski birthday, but we did get an extra year tax break I guess) Not sure the small rope would be good for her. Masterline has given the sport and her unprecedented support and service. It's your products at our house. Period! Plus if I don't get her stuff from Anna's dad I'm in trouble she says.(Amazing how our names disappear and we just become someone's dad. Sorry Russell) She loves that handle with the webbed guard built in you made for her. I'm sure Joe would consider having Ruth test also. Both girls into at least purple everyday. Been fun to watch. Both their averages are higher than what is listed above now. Data would be interesting too. Their styles are fairly different.
  6. Daughter said the water was over 100 at home at Aquaplex yesterday. I'm freezing in South Africa scraping ice off the windshield this week. Doesn't seem right.
  7. Ron is one of the best guys in our sport and an inspiration to all of us. He is in our thoughts and we hope he gets better quickly. I'm sure Cox was shook up. That stuff stays with you awhile from that side too. Marc
  8. Apply coatings on pistons, valve springs, valves, brake calipers intakes, crankshafts and some other parts for years. Had a performance coatings company for about 9-10 years called Aero-Coat. Mostly drag racing, offshore racing, carting and dirt track customers and a few commercial clients like NASA. Fun stuff. Funded my own racing habits for years.
  9. @Horton I had the honor of having parts of mine in RCR cars for many years when Big E was winning like crazy. All the way back to the Andy Petree days and the championships of 93 and 94. Little E needs to bring one home. Been way too long. MA
  10. Lucky. I have been buying many skis for years and it never seems to improve my marital status like it did for that guy. Maybe I need a few more skis to push this over the top. Bring on the new graphics too.
  11. Riding a mid. Not doing anything justice these days. Not skiing much. Also Tyler Scott 1@41 today. Skidawg 3 @ 41. Looked awesome.
  12. Update from Cottonwood: Dirt was ripping today on a possible stolen ski. 3.5 @ 39 for a PB. I saw Horton on a similiar looking ski, but it didn't look this good when he was riding it!
  13. With 3 fins you could easily utilize at least 9 ventral wings. Hard to believe you missed that option. Try it and I will bet it works! And yes, please do video.
  14. Jeff's boat is awesome. Skied behind it a few weeks ago and you can't go wrong. Super clean too.
  15. MS, I thought page 19 was cool, but I'm slightly biased.

  17. Have a 2012 TXI promo. Tracks equal to an SN 200 and uses a hell of a lot less fuel. Quality seems to get better every year, which is not the same as some others. Wake is great at 15-39. Boat is effortless to drive. Has a stronger more steady pull than the LXI. Doesn't get pulled down slightly then sling you into the buoy. Boat is a big improvement over a model most of us were extremely happy with to start. Have a nice one someone can have in August if they like. Shane may ski behind it this weekend. We will let him give you a review after. Marc
  18. OB, I need good motivated people in Johannesburg and Durban as we speak. The pay is good, but man the travel is tough from here. I know for sure.
  19. OB, Your comments make me feel really good especially since I'm diamond with your employer.
  20. Shane, That is almost a believable story except for one thing. It involves Baker actually speaking. Especially since I was there. He swears to me he can't say anything when I am there.
  21. It appeared he was a proponent of both.
  22. Does guys dropping 20 - 25k per year for HGH and programs like cryogenics count? There was a once famous dentist who looked like he was on roids. Heck, made the buoys look 3ft narrow on each side when he skied.
  23. I had a consultation with Richard Chopp. He runs one hell of a March Madness special. Says its his busiest time of year.
