    @chef23. Sounds like a road trip to @rfa

    I would recommend you change one or the other, but not both at the same time. With that said, get off of the Phantom.

    I learned to drag when I was a kid, and didn't change until I hurt my groin(let the jokes begin) kicking in on a short set up. Since then I learned the both feet in method and have never gone back.

    Less fruit/fruit juice and more protein if you are trying to lose weight. Too much sugar especially the juice.

    It is clear that Jenny was going to kill it this year except for this unfortunate accident. They need to change the rules for regionals to let the Top 3 from last years regionals get in.

    I did not go in as I was at another event with my daughter, but in Boston, they have a gallery overlooking the floor. As far as I could see, The Big 3 did bring slalom boats. In fact the Malibu dealer had both a TXi and a Response LX.

    When in Orlando, one must make the pilgrimage to great store.

    You live 4 houses down from Drew and have been skiing with him a lot! I am jealous. I skied with Drew a couple of times at his school and he is a great teacher. I am also thinking that you should just listen to him, he will get you to the promised land.

    Call Chip at Palm Beach Water Sports 50/set and a reasonable site to grab a few sets.

    With most CMOS HD Camcorders, you get what is called rolling shutter which is caused by both the vibration and the speed the camera is swinging, but mostly the vibration. The end video is very hard to watch. I just saw that IMovie now has a feature that may clean it up, but have not tested it. Wiki link for Rolling shutter defn http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_shutter

    Get professional help. Call Jenny Labaw. She bases on crossfit but is waterski specific.

    I may be the 1% of this topic but.... I have been eating Paleo for about 1.25 years now, and for the last 4 months really concentrating on being pure with it. My cravings have really gone away. I used to be a big chocolate cookie and ice cream hound and now I can finally walk past them(wife and kids just made a huge batch) and not have the urge to eat any. I truly believe that wheat and sugar are addictive and even a little will bring back the "need".

    How many of you start the season right back in the course vs. free skiing and pull drills. I am sure it also might depend on the length of your layoff. We always start with free skiing and pull drills. Our layoff in New England is a long 5 months.

    He went to the dark side but the best lessons I ever had were with Mike Ferraro. Seth was pretty close. Drew and of course April and her crew. Also had a lot of fun and learned a lot with chuck dees back in the day.

    My O'Neill Gooru has really held up

    I used to watch them at BOS. But they moved the screening area to a remote/secure location that I have not found. Before they moved it, I helped a couple of agents get it back together again, but usually only have trouble when I have both mine and my sons skis in there. I agree with all the above that never pack anything loose in the tube, I always use my ski bag to put the handle, gloves, ski into.

    Not sure Seth is looking for someone with a mid life crisis :) But it sure sounds tempting

    Sporttube pain to pack but it takes a beating

    So tell me this. If USAWS is a charitable organization and I volunteer at say regionals/nationals any sanctioned event as a judge, driver etc with no compensation. Can I write off my expenses for driving, eating and lodging for each day I am doing volunteer work. If that is the case I like where this is going. In addition I would think that I would no be able to write off the entry fee to ski.

    I recounted. I am definitely over 20. And in 2 countries.
