Ball of Spray ..."Where the balls count more than the stick"

@hemlock I am sure @savaiusini can answer but I think it is like most hybrid hardshells by competing manufacturers in that the liner ejects from the shell.

92 Kidder Redline Supreme - saved all summer for it 2002 Iconn Sonic C-6 Carbon, could never really get it to turn consistently but it was fast and stable but only after BOS helped me get it dialed thanks @Drago 2011 Connelly V prototype sans graphics , loaned to me by Kyle Eade @ Fluid Ski in Polk County first time in course in years My newest to me ski 2012 HO A2 with EXO's I actually like the system early on and I skied it well without even a tweak to settings ... thanks @savaiusini for all your insight. Most unique an early Taperflex with SHAG carpeting for the foot bed !

End of ski sesh sunsets ... beer in hand of course !

Getting ready to rip for perhaps the last time ... 2 of 3 "Boys of Summer" and my Girlfriend who is now addicted to open water slalom after only a month skiing.

@Drago "caked" hit with ingredients to make cake 1) water 2) Flour and 3) egg ...

@bigtex2011 was your A2 a 65.5 ? Thanks.

@Horton the reason I am on this site is because of the manufacturers representation , because of guys like @savaiusini I am not chasing my tail trying to find out information on a 4 year old ski. With that being said I know if I were on a Radar product @eddie_roberts_jr I would be offering the same great feedback. Horton with this site have built something you should be proud of , I am a proud member of this site and for this reason always want to treat the site , members and manufacturers with the respect they deserve . Long live BOS!

@savaiusini yes success at 34 on the Prophecy but it is tiring , best skied at 36 mph @ 34 tends to sink the tail and I need to work hard to make it move. I am hopeful the A2 will be an improvement. Thanks for all the assistance you have offered so far.

@savaiusini thanks , I usually ski 36 . This is the ski I called Matt about and he said 65.5 would be ok. If I was to slow the boat to 34 mph do you think it will still work ? I am coming off a 66 Prophecy. So far I am more impressed with HO customer support than the ski ... and I like the ski !

@savaiusini or @Horton I am looking for something like this or any recommendations you can make , I am 5'9 165 lbs. Thanks in advance.

@fox197 man this is why I love Ballers ! Thanks a bunch PM will be sent.

I just bought a HO EXO form binding system however the seller forgot to include two of the 3 screws holding on the VRS lever. Anyone have any idea what size machine screw this would be ? I can take the remaining one out and try to match it up but if I knew what specifically to ask for it would help. Thanks in advance.

Once the time change hit , dawn patrols and sunset sesh are no longer an option ... time to move onto the snowmobiles!

@MS can you elaborate? ... I caught Freddy's reference to the "white bottomed" ski but alas had to return to work ...

@Horton is that Freddie Kreuger announcing ? He is doing a good job .

@paco , a 67 inch ski @ 200 lbs and 6 ft seems way short at 32 IMO. For reference I am 5'9 , 165 ish and just purchased a 65.5 HO A2 and I called them before I purchased as reference chart suggested my weight should call for 66.5, they said for 36mph 65.5 is correct . I would be more inclined to believe based on what you are saying , the A2 just needs to be setup properly with the fin/binding. Call HO they will point you in the right direction. SUPER customer support!

@savaiusini thanks for the amazing support.

@Laz I see you are in Ontario ... here is a nice looking 200 OB on SIA

@savaiusini or @Horton or any other Ballers with knowledge of HO product that far exceeds mine ! I am looking for the VRS tension settings chart. Ski JUST arrived in this morning. I am 165lbs. Ski is a 65.5 if that will matter . Thanks in advance.

x3 on USPS ! No duty as origin of manu. is United States.

I can't get past this image ... sorry you may need to post link !

@Stevie Boy I concur.

@Stevie Boy I never said I used JB Weld, I said I know people were going to chime in with it , I used a 2 part marine epoxy which is resin , that "cures" itself, which is what a ski is made out of to begin with , which is why it is still going 10 years later. Am I using it ? No Would I ? Yes definitely.

I just knew that people would be preaching JB weld on this one , the fact remains that product is UNREAL for fixing all kinds of stuff. Good luck and please post a pic AFTER the repair. I have like someone else posted used marine epoxy with great success on a ski's sidewall , sanded it down and then a little touch up paint , you could not tell and that ski is still going strong 10 seasons later!
