@Than_Bogan pretty sure you would not recognize the name of any of the 4 or 5 drivers at the event. Maybe Botas or Pigozzi. It gets very political at that level of events. My experience at iwwf events is that some of the drivers are....... Well lets just say that some class c have better pulls. Sad really. Kind of like the site conditions. Maybe the new president of the federatIon can improve things

Just looked St sledge score was updated. Awesome.
-
Noticed some good skiers for bargain costs. Filchenko in tricks for 50k. Really??? Relative to others he was a bargain. I must not have been paying close attention to costs. 600 for each point is too low. Look at your team and see what the cost per point is. Closer to 620 to 640. Heck call it 650. Did sledges score in trick get updated to reflect the 8900 points vs the 8100 that was first posted. I like the idea. Good beta tests and fun for bragging rights. Got my butt kicked in ms. JT nuvue and kolmann way below expectations. Ugh.

@MattP Sledge and Josh have not jumped yet. I dont think that will hold up.
-
#3 seed going into the finals came from Series 3.... I would say that there was a huge difference in condtions. Not sure that many would have projected him into the finals.

Usa waterski will now allow the use of zero off boats in class C all the way back to 2008 model year with approval from the regional tow boat committee.
-
@disland longest single jump in any of the four rounds.
-
He has it figured out. Three jumps over 230 feet in a set.
-
My guess is that it is a typo. Maybe Day Camp?????
-
@Inboardfix. Lol. My numbers are incorrect also.... No jump for B1/G1 so that reduces it by 10
-
@Inboardfix you might want to check your math. B1/G1 thru. B3/G3 is 120 medals. Slalom. Trick. Jump. Overall. Places 1-5
-
@mwetskier a good machine shop will charge between 75-100 per hour. How bad do you want that handel rebuilt???
-
@LLUSA I dont know for sure, and just a guess, but I dont think there is any way that @horton has a sibling young enought to be college age. Niece maybe????

I have seen hulls trashed by doing this. I know they are there to be used to lift, but I would not do it for a extended time. Support bunks under the motor are the safest way to go.
-
Wow. That goes back to the days of putting a 4 inch wide piece of foam around our waist for flotation. We had the same handle configuration about 45 years ago. Amazing that it lasted this long. They sure don't make things the way they used to.
-
@disland night jump starts at 7. Or as soon as they finish on that lake if after 7
-
Imagine that. Watersking broke the internet.

@escmanaze sorry you got confused. You are questioning the 75K cost for a acre in AZ (asking "what is wrong" and "so it sounds too good to be true") vs the cost in Utah. My point was, that depending on what part of the country you are in, the cost IS very different. What a ski lot cost in Utah is different than AZ. The cost does not mean there is anything wrong with it.
-
@escmanaze . market is different in different parts of the country. Google 6 ski haven. Private 2 lake site with two community boats.
-
@Mark_Matis. The reason more sites are not bidding for nationals is the low number of skiers. Fixed costs for officials and infrastructure is the same for 600 or 1000. I bet san Marcos would love to have 1000 skies in a few weeks. I bet they are doing all they can to reduce fixed cost and increase profits from the event I bet 600 is barely above break even

Does anyone remember who pushed and designed the ranking system??? The days of "EP" discounts went away when Goode did not offer them. The rest followed. Those days are gone.
-
The 12 month system is not practical. Regional can count toward two nationals under the current system. The season starts the day after nationals. @ToddL if you use a Jan 1 date... You lose all the fall tournaments. That does not work. Common sense says that a ski season runs from the day after national.

I have a old pair of 66 inch that I will not sell. They are in great shape. Maybe someday grandkids will learn to jump on them
