  1. @Bruce_Butterfield actually Tesla is making money, like any growth company they reinvest their profits building new factories(China, Texas, Germany), expanding the supercharging network, battery technology improvements, auto pilot that’s very close to being fully autonomous and safer than a human when engaged with stats to prove it. Might want to check out the “battery day’ video from last summer. They’re 10 years ahead of the rest and the technology is doubling every 3 years. $39,900 for a Tesla model 3, plus you can get used model S’s in the 20’s. Once you drive one, you realize it’s a legit option. Are electric cars for everyone, nope, but an increasing number of buyers are choosing Tesla. The best sales, service, and driving experience I’ve had to date. Are gasoline cars going away? Not in our lifetime, perhaps our kids lifetime. That new C8 corvette is pretty bitchin, I want one!
  2. @OSSKI Hi Owen, nice work! Very cool app. Is there a way to search sets by water temp and top scores/most stars? Also being able to search by lake would be super cool. For example, Florida lakes are a lot different than lakes in the pnw. That would make it quick to see what settings worked best when the water temp changes or different lakes/temp Thanks! ????
  3. I think this is going to be interesting as surepath unfolds. One thing surepath needs to keep in mind, we all do this for fun, even the pros really aren’t making enough for the incredible skill levels they have. That said, I took a ride in a tourney last summer behind surepath. At the crew change, the driver exclaimed, “wow that was cool! I was dead straight the whole way down!” What did it feel like on my end of the rope? Out of sync, hard, not fun at all. That was just one driver. So how do we keep it fun for the skier too, so we don’t drive even more skier’s away from tourneys? Are there driver clinics available to help keep it fun? Even 4” is a very small percentage margin of error for a 100” wide boat. Looking forward to skiing behind more drivers and a happy balance ?
  4. I had my dealer install one. Came out super clean. Separate powered sub box mounted up front, so it’s in line flush with the long bulkhead, speaker facing left, and doesn’t take up any storage. Sounds really good! Also mounted a sub level knob under the steering wheel for adjustment. Active Watersports Service department in Portland OR did the work.
  5. When I watched the tournament I was amazed watching the boat path for the skiers in slomo replay. I took a mental note with just about every one of the top skiers. Hats off to the drivers, super straight and great driving! The good scores might have something to do with water temps in FL cooling down a little. I’ve heard some of the lakes ski really well this time of year. Great skiing, fun to watch, nice job on the broadcast team!
