  1. What do you guys use to measure wing angle, just a compass from a geometry set?
  2. Right on. Trent is actually from my lake and I am hoping he comes up here this summer.
  3. I had it done in 2006. Mine was pretty bad but I felt pretty strong after a few weeks. It was in the winter though so I wasn't skiing.
  4. There is still ice on my lake.
  5. I don't have washers or screws for any other bindings either. My last ski was from the 70's haha
  6. That wouldn't work if companies like HO want to work on new systems like the EXO. Why there are two different patterns for the Strada seems weird though. On an aside. Does anyone know what size the screws for the center holes on the 1 piece radar plate are? Also what type of washer should go between the plate and ski? I don't have these so I'll need to pick something up at the hardware store.
  7. Wait, so that ball is supposed to be in the middle of the bow?
  8. Why the heck would Radar switch hole patterns?
  9. I have heard of it happening to a few people. There are a number of complaints with Stainless Steel props but people have reported it happening with Nibral props as well.
  10. That one tree in the back right on the street corner looks a little weird. The boat looks like it has a ball in the middle of the bow, the text on "ski" looks a little off.  Mostly just the tree.
  11. By those looks I'd say the hands and feet are freezing haha.
  12. I think purchasing the adapter plate would be a better idea than drilling into your ski. The RS1 mold is probably still viable because they are using it for the 2010 annex right?
  13. I've been using the same 3 ropes since I was a kid - they've lasted a solid 15 years. Last year I found out my main rope was much too short, so I went out and bought an 11 section rope. :)
  14. I'd say the fall change is the important one. The sooner the old oil gets out the better. Changing it again in the spring is unnecessary though.

    test

    test failed :)
  16. I'd say the prophecy is everything mentioned about it so far. Jp, that thought actually crossed my mind too :).  Jared, I believe the top of the strada is meant to look like brushed aluminum but it is actually a graphic. I was really excited when I heard their plans as grew up with a Jobe Honeycomb from the 70's that has a aluminum top. The phosphor screen bottom is a cool idea too.ÂÂ
  17. Alright, some of us aren't buying a new ski this season but we still like to check em out right? My favorite graphics of 2009 went to the RS-1. This year... the Prophecy. "Awesome" was my first thought when I saw this. http://waterskimag.com/files/2010/03/connelly-prophecy-slalom-water-ski-600x69.jpg What's your pick? Hopefully putting brand loyalty and performance aside :).ÂÂ
  18. We bought one of those mowers that that has the powered wheels and it has taken a huge load of mowing the yard..... people pay 45-50 bucks to get their yards cut? I need to get into that business.
  19. I haven't lost any. But then again the only person that was ever willing to come skiing with me was my dad. Everyone else around here growing up with me went to wakeboarding before even trying skiing. Everybody thinks it's cools but no one wants to ski!
  20. Ok I am looking to get pumped up for the new season so I want a DVD. I have not seen any of the latest films so I am open for all suggestions. I am not overly interested in tricking or jumping or instructional stuff at the moment, but if that stuff is in there all is well as long as I can get my slalom fix. So Majority rules. I'll pick up whichever DVD gets the most input. Just try to base your opinion on some wicked slalom aight?
  21. I have a few pairs of Oakley board shorts I like to wear when I ski. I've found they are pretty good for deep water starts, at least compared to my collection of O'Neill shorts. When I am wearing the O'Neill shorts I slide the material up against my hamstring and it gets a little better. Commando.
  22. Does Brenda have a website? She's getting a lot of press here and I'd like to check them out.
