    @aswinter05, you're welcome. That was a great deal. If it were a 67 i would have bought it!

    This might be closer to razorback red, in your price range, and still a good ski: http://hosports.com/WATER-SKIS/Men-s/Coefficient-X

    Measure from the lowest stitch line on the heel of the front vector to the tail of the ski, just like with the Strada boot. 29.25"

    The Theory would be easy to get up on but performs best 28-30 mph. The Senate is better at 32-34.

    Horton's reviews of each might help: http://www.ballofspray.com/home-v16/2011-ski-tests/2011-ski-tests/996-ho-a2-review http://www.ballofspray.com/forum#/discussion/5141/2012-radar-vice-review

    I'd try deeper in the finger to start. Overall looks better protected. And you can always move the course if it doesn't work out. Have you run both those proposed paths to see if either might give you some unanticipated rollers coming back off the shoreline?

    The Mid S was designed more as a fun freeriding ski. It might carve a decent turn but wake crossings in the course could be an adventure. 71" HO Triumph or 71" Radar P-6 might be better choices.
  11. MJE
    HO Couture or Radar Lyric might be good options as well. As far as double boots, that's really a matter of personal preference.
  12. MJE
    2012 71" HO Triumph would be a good one to try

    A little more expensive but you don't have to find a core to fit your box, and drill the rivets out of your existing box. http://www.skidim.com/products.asp?dept=1020

    Looks like it's selling for $990

    Without taking into account your height/weight, if you were comfortable on the 65 Senate you should be fine on the 66 Strada.
  16. MJE
    67 Radar Senate, 67 Radar Theory, 67 Connelly V, 67 HO Coefficient X, 67 HO Triumph.

    Friend's 98 developed a ticking noise last yearthat sounded like that. Turned out to be a very small leak in the exhaust manifold.

    225

    If the screw fits tight in the hole, you can apply a layer to the amount of threads that'll be in the ski and install wet. If the holes are a little big, fill the holes, let it cure, drill a pilot hole, then install the screws.

    I'd use JB Welb Marine Weld. Won't be able to ski today though. http://www.jbweld.net/products/marine.php

    It's easiest if this is your first time doing it to remove the rear boor or toe piece and measure from the back of the heel rubber on front boot to tail of ski (down the centerline of the ski). If your screwing your front boot to the ski using the holes in the enzo boot plate, pick the set of holes that gets you closest to 29.625".
  22. MJE
    Not real familiar with the Enzo bindings but I'd measure from where the heel of the front boot (under the hinge) meets the plate.
  23. MJE
    Here are the 2008 F1 Settings: Front Binding - 29.625, DFT - 0.775, Length - 6.85, Depth - 2.51, Wing - 9

    I'm very happy with my Senate (non C) in and out of the course at 34mph. With that said, you probably can't go wrong with either ski. Both will be forgiving in the open water and still will allow you to progress in the course. If you have a chance to ski each, go with the one you feel more comfortable on.

    Ditto what @OB said. Barefoot International since '96. Replaced the seals once. Suit is indestructible.
