scuppers

The old saying “fool me once, shame on you - fool me twice, shame on me!”

ya just can’t take a chance on him even if they are the best handles ever made.

A big NO on turn islands!  A waste of everything- gas, space, work to maintain - and in the south a really good snake habitat

Thanks @Buxrus for the referral - we put that 64 WR in service. My wife is on it now and she loves itShe is 65 and strokes 38 off in the mini courseBig improvement over her brand new Lyric and half the weight.

Very early edge change

@pugs - thanks that is the stuff. Seems way better than carpet

Wasn’t there a rubber bunk cover available at one time? What happened with that?

@BlueSki - thanks!

For the gates do you change your pull out / turn in point depending on the line lengthAlso do you increase / decrease intensity per line length

How do I send in a couple of questions?

Just last week on. YouTube I saw a side by side comparison with a new IPhone 14 and I thought the IPhone performed better. Figuring out the mount (maybe a ski dock) may be a challenge. I have a GoPro 8 with all the stabilization and GPS activation but I’m not really that crazy about it. You might check it out for yourself.

Fighter

That is a really cool shot!

Great photo!

@Keith_Menard Spot on assessment of doing business with Brenda. Handles always accurate and pull straight / even

@braindamage How old are you?, and what do you know about the Catholic church. And if you really think about it most of the laws we have stem directly from people not being taught right from wrong in the first place. Too many "kind words" and not enough discipline.

@rfa quite the contrary - The church hung a plaque in my honor thanking me for not carrying on like it was the end of the earth.

Her stuff is worth the wait.

@lpskier - you just confirmed the training doesn’t work at all. I too was one of the kids moved on by a catholic priest at 8 years old. My parents and my home life and up-bringing were all the training I needed to recognize a pervert - It was handled swiftly cleanly in a dignified manner without any government involvement. The Catholic Church took care of the rest. I didn’t need any psychological counseling or special attention. Grow a pair and drive on.

@ForrestGump That is exactly correct.

Just maybe the best skiers didn't feel like taking safe sport training.

I am enjoying very much Zane's commentary. You can learn a lot from it.

Hope the gloves are better than the website

@MrJones - Yes it is. And the reason why the dead horse keeps getting a beating is some of us are just not “go along with the crowd” kind of people. Those that are should study a bit of history (before it’s erased) 6 million “go alongs” were gassed - and not that long ago. Yes we want to join and compete but not at the cost of swallowing a bowl of bull shit. @Buxrus is right - taking that class protects no one.

(I bet this post will fire ‘em up!)

@Buxrus - Right on Brother! You are totally correct and well spoken/written. Welcome to the “step & fetch it world”

@Lars - required why? Insurance? Try and collect!

Luckily where I ski it’s not required and we are well insured.

 

 

What is the point of renewing or even joining AWSA /USA /whatever, if you are not going to compete in a tournament? Mandatory Safe Sport is just one more nail in the coffin.

Nationals @ Oakeeheelee next year - I would like to compete but Safe Sport Training is gonna be a hard pill to swallow.
