That is awesome! I have a 2010 LXI also and would love to do this to my jump seat.

Very nice boat, sir!
-
Wow, hard to believe we've now blown past the $100k mark for a new ski boat. I'm starting to feel that buying a 1 year old promo boat for $40k a few years back was one of the best decisions of my life.
-
Yeah seriously... I ended up buying the ski as a demo from Bennett's after she denied me for like $900 so at least I did save some cash!
-
That was me a few years ago and I bought the ski anyway!

Waiving the entrance fee for your first tournament might be enough to get more recreational skiers interested in joining and giving a tournament a try. As someone who skis recreationally on a public course myself, I have honestly never considered joining other than the possibility of someday trying a tournament. But throwing in that first tournament skiing experience for free might be just enough push some skiers need.

I'm also NW of Chicago on the Fox River...there's a public course on the river near Johnsburg

@XR6Hurricane what was the outcome of the meeting last night?
-
Ha, I like how the "Ultimate" package comes with a ski boat. one stop shopping!
-
I would definitely spend more on the boat. My 2010 LXI towed with a '96 Explorer...I'd say my priorities are about right.
-
@xr6hurricane It looks like you ski on the Fox River. I ski with a group of people on a public course on the upper river. We are there usually every weekend...stop by anytime.

Outback V is a wakeboad boat, right? A friend of mine has an Outback direct drive that he's owned for 10 years with no major mechanical issues so they can be reliable boats. Personally, I would go with a Malibu or Nautique that has a few years on it over a brand new Moomba.

"Checking the prop" - used by skier to inform boat crew you intend to relieve yourself

There's a public course on the Fox River in Johnsburg, IL which isn't too far from you.

that baby also looked like he had a nice stack...

I saw that story on CRB this morning too...awesome!

I need to get one of those clothes hanger handles

@Horton - it's maybe 1/16th to 1/8th inch in diameter. I skiied on it last week and didn't notice any issue so I'm thinking I'll be good to go for the season but ideally I like the idea of repairing it somehow if possible.
-
@Horton
It's basically right under my front foot in the middle of the ski. I'm a 15off to 22off skier.
-
I noticed a small ding on the bottom of my S2 the other day. It's maybe about 1/16th of an inch deep. I doubt it's really going to effect the performance of the ski but it's probably a good idea to try to fill in the ding and smooth out the surface.
Anyone have any suggestions on what type of epoxy or other material that would be useful here?
-
@Wish - I'm 5'10" 190. Mid season I'm probably closer to 185 when skiing every weekend.
-
@buski - what size S2 did you go with? I'm considering as S2 for myself and feel like I fall between the 66.5 and 67.5 and wondering if anyone has an opinion on if better to size up or down on the S2. I'm about 190 lbs. and ski 34 MPH.
