  1. It's not that much harder physically, but it's really harder mentally...progressing in shortline is about where and not how much...
  2. be interesting to see a 350lb steroid/HGH infused mamoth on a 62" ski to really make ZO work...would have to use cable for a tow rope probably...

  4. The ground, the trees, the deck, the driveway, hello off season S.S. (snow shovel) training...
  5. Isles of lake Hancock, lake 1 and 2, big turn island on lake 1 through the trees is sweet, for scenic, top of the hill dropping down to the lakes @ Predator Bay in Calgary is incredible and our little lake @ home, fisherman, tubers and all...
  6. it's the knucklehead's that seem to gravitate to them...
  7. The only ski I ever had an issue with was a Sixam SS, it has a slightly rounded top where the front of the plate ends and the dual lock wouldn't stay locked...
  8. I agree with Roger, 35 is the answer, not that I'm at the level of the Big Dawgs but I really like the way 35 skis and think it would be a good 'next level' for elite 34 guys...
  9. "your not good enough to get mad at this sport..." Was told that during a golf game, but pretty much applicable every where...
  10. Next year is going to be a big year in M3/MM, 41 is going to go down and some new, but known faces will be on top...
  11. Light on the line...very little handle pressure through the turn itself is what he's telling you, it is wrong to be light/pressureless after the turn and into the wakes (as the line gets shorter you need to start edge changing in the wakes)... this is only where a person should feel any load/pressure, or another way to look at it is he's telling you that you are impatient at the buoy and forcing the turn...or your loading at the ball...there are lots of ways you can create 'patience/light line/' through the turn, Marco softens his knees, this creates more time letting the ski finsh the turn and inhibits him from forcing a 'pulling' action too soon...pressure in the pull "behind the boat" (a term which is a misrepresentation of applicable area to "pull") is an absolute, it's when the application of pressure that is instituted in your path through the course that affects your skiing results. Marco you are so right with the soft knees and lowering stance is a superior position to be in the pull rather than a tall stacked position...a lower CG will always require less effort on a skiers part in comparison to a taller straight legged position...Does a person stand tall during a tug of war? Worlds strongest man comps, always low in any pulling comps...
  12. So what ski was he riding when he broke the record?
  13. was in a boat that had a GPS based path system, a take off form the ag industry, worked pretty slick, kind of freaky no having someone holding the steering wheel when theres a skier back there...
  14. 70-77, that's the warmest our lake gets...no rashie!!! man up...
  15. What's the orange buoy's before the pre gates for?
  16. Any one know (JH??) which carbon fin was most similar to the new Red fin on the A2? The 108 or 98/6? Can't read the #'s on that one...
  17. They can't be safe, when the two contact points (front and back) move closer together because of the ski flexing in the turn how does it compensate for the added pressure on the rail? Probably works fine any place the ski isn't flexed to that extent...
  18. Ham, just to verify 2.94???
  19. Sorry my mistake on weight, was looking and not reading, that was capacity, LXI 2600lb 200 2800lb as far as the LX goes Smooth Water Sports in NY seems to be getting some in every year...
  20. You can still get the LX if you want... Funny how evryone keeps commenting on the size of the Boo but yet CC made their boat bigger and with a OB w/ walkthrough... LXI length: 20' 6" beam: 93.5" weight: 1265lb 200 length:20' beam: 95" weight: 1450 lb Hmmm
  21. How about behind a Supra Comp early 90's...worst ever I skied without a head wind...
