Of the four skiers who've run 10.25 in the last 12 months, only CP has skied around buoy number 2 at 9.75. A feat he's accomplished five times. Yet never received credit for the full 2 buoys. He has scored 2 twice. In 2005 and 2010. Getting a full two must be wicked hard at 9.75.

@OB not to mention a great coach to learn from.

9.75 - 1 Nate

10.25 - 4 CP

10.25 - 3 JMac

10.25 - 2.5 JT

10.25 - 1 Will

@Wish If buoys were in the lake, you'd see the gates you blew by on your way to ball seven.

 

 

@6balls Ripping your arms off is an impressive feat.

Who cares about a rule change that effects 30-50 people.

I think it's time to take poll creation privileges away. Drinking beer with @MS is part of my ultimate goal. Which is enjoying skiing and the company of good friends.

@Horton‌ What exactly is a D1/D2 format change attempting to accomplish?

Please stop the golf comparisons. I care less about that particular diatribe than practice scores.

@MS True and I haven't seen it at my local craft beer store. If anybody could get it in MN, Four Firkins "The Beer Store" would be the place. All they sell is craft brew. No Bud, Coors, or Miller products. It's beer paradise.

@gmut I skied most of the season with the bindings too far back. Moving them to 30" helped. Unfortunately, I've only had a few rides on the new binding placement and have to determine if I can make the G5 a go. I've had some good sets & some bad ones. My off sides have been a trouble spot as well. I've found that standing on the right spot of the ski can make a pretty big difference.

 

current settings:

CBS will likely show it, tape delayed, on CBS SPORTS NETWORK. I'd assume that it would be on the program CBS Sports Spectacular.

And last I checked, the boat is going 16.08 no matter the wind speed.

What size?

I'm on it, but having trouble dialing it in. I'll be testing out Horton's settings this week. It's different than the Nano One that I was on.

This is a huge pet peeve of mine. The key phrase "if you know you missed a ball". I know of two people who regularly do this in Minnesota. It drives me crazy. At the State tournament, one of them skied 2-3 feet inside 3 & 5 while skiing around the other buoys, then had the nerve to position themselves on the right side of the wake after getting through the exit gates hoping the driver was going to drop the skier and shorten the line. When the boat headed for the starting dock instead, the skier quickly adjusted and skied to shore.

top 16. Only three skiers made the top sixteen who were seeded outside of the top 16. And only one of the top fourteen seeds didn't make the finals.

 

 

 

Does Badal ever miss 10.75/-39?

@Horton Final settings?

@oldjeep both MA events are today

M2 numbers are really low compared to where they once were. That's not good long term for competitive skiing.

24 M2 skiers.

@Horton‌ What settings are really working? Still dialing in my G5.
