  1. Thanks to Steve and Nikol for hosting another amazing week end.
  2. It is amazing how the ski keeps going after a bad start. Tournament today and got a terrible one but as I was expecting to be done at 2, the ski turned and accelerated off the buoy. Hummm went to 3 and same thing, maybe I can get a piece of 4 and ski turned again. I was too late to go around 5 but the ski is incredible. I then witness @horton screw up is one ball at 38 and somehow run it
  3. @RAWSki I believe @eddie_roberts_jr may know about the site has he told me about the cable a while back before it opened.
  4. @AdamCord I am doing this to @Horton every time I go to the lake. He may not know but he is on the LFF fin right now...
  5. Okay so I guess I was so excited to ski on my Denali that I completely screwed up the boot placement. I was at a pretty much 28 1/4 instead of 28.5. I move them today to 28 and 5/8 and the ski came to life and is amazing. I ran the best 32 off ever, tip down, ski is predictable and creates space. 2 rides today with 5@38 ride one and 5, 4,5, 3,5 and 5 @38 ride two. I think I was so excited I kept screwing up but I feel 38 will come.
  6. Okay so over the years I was told to pull behind the boat but it seems that I have to make speed off the buoy in order to have most of the work done by the time I am behind the boat so I can glide free to the next buoy, be over the ski and edge change easily. I heard from one of the top elite skiers that what you do from the buoy to the first wake will dictate how good my 2nd wake to next buoy is. This is very insightful but how does that work with working behind the boat?
  7. Asher’s 41 was freaking insane and for the win. Amazing
  8. @UWSkier yes this was hard. Hopefully someone can confirm she’s okay
  9. This was a very fun event. Great skiing and very well organized. I will come back!
  10. Farting in the course suggest a bad posture
  11. I received my Large C-75 and rode it for the first time yesterday when I wasn't feeling that good (too much Memorial Day drinks the night before but manage to get 3 rides to discover the ski. I usually open at 28 and run 3 buoys at 38 on average. I ran 28, 32, 32, 35 and the ride feeling was definitely different. The ski is slower that the Radar Vapor I have been riding but does not feel slow. It took me a while to get my center of mass forward on the ski and trust that it will carry my 210 lbs. Once you do, the ski is amazing. Second set, I got used to the ski and ran 3@38. One huge difference to other skis is that it will turn no matter what. Third set I adjusted the fin based on Adam's feedback and turned 4 ball at 38. I am still figuring out the ski and need to work on gate pull out and turn in but I am very excited to ski the C-75 again this week... I will post my progression on the ski.
  12. @John Brooks I don’t believe this can be use for boat path. The back of the boat has to move for the pylon to stay in the middle
  13. Big boy size L. First ride in 3 days
