Will do Bogboy as I am sure there are more than the half dozen of us on this thread that are interested in this
...the trick is to find a ski that turns, starts and glides and you can do some warm up passes at wide ride kinds of speed without it feeling like a 20 second deep water start.
I tried the old Senate C, and a new Theory and they are both great skis but I felt drag at wide ride speed, the drag was so bad the ski wouldn't work. The 71 triumph didn't sink but couldn't turn very quickly. I do admit that a lot is technique but I have waterskied for decades and snow skied for the same time and I know when you have a "super G" ski don't expect to run a "slalom" course in it. I own DH, SG, GS, and Sl snow skis for that reason as they don't do the same thing.
Years ago I used the Icon Power Carve Kahuna Carve ski and that was fun....do water skis wear out...snow skis certainly do? Maybe I should dust off and go back to the old power carve....which I consider one of the best water ski shapes ever.
A carbon fibre power carve might be a big seller....that or lose weight which is much easier said than done.
my best,
