  1. @MISkier Appreciate the response, but I have not found a video on how to properly inflate the balls. I assume this will differ depending on the method of attachment (bungee, latex, rope, etc.) I understand and agree with the theory behind the safety and In understand the seam crease will fade will sun exposure. The crew I ski with aren't convinced on this yet and I'm just trying to get things right.
  2. For those using the Wally Sinker balls, how much should they be under-inflated? We just installed these and I'd guess they are ~90% inflated. The seam is still visible, not that I care, but just just on much air is enough and how is too much.
  3. Ours usually comes in a plastic kind of bag (~50 lbs.). We put the bag in a burlap sack, make several cuts/slices in the bag and then tie burlap sack to back of boat, drop in a few feet of water and slowly drag the length of the pond. 1-2 passes, depending on the size of the slices/holes and the bag is empty. This allows the crystals to slowly dissolve directly into the water. I check the bag every so often and may need to adjust bag depending on # and size of slices/holes. I've also just dumped the entire bag of CS in the burlap sack but the crystals dissolve much quicker this way (bag is empty by 1/2 way down the pond). Both ways seemed to work well. Unless the algae is really bad, 1 bag works very well.

    I'm LFF. Could this be causing me to go OTF on my 1/3/5 side turn? Had a bad fall at 3 that ended my day yesterday and then 1st pass today at 1 ball. Didn't notice it til after my last crash... so as a reminder, Check Yo $#it before you ski.

     

  5. If skiing at another's place, bring gas, or at least offer beers or $. I've traveled to a few ski places (flight) and couldn't bring gas, so offered beers/alcohol or $, their choice. While gas was preferred, other options were acceptable. Do something, and I still brought my own gear.
