  1. i'm sure @The_MS didnt join. If he did he must have "woke" up :)
  2. @ski6jones - If you are looking for a visual, I'm not sure that exist that many skiers could agree on. you are tall, i'm not. line length, wind and varying lakes all play into your question. you need to be going slightly faster than the boat to get free of the boat before making your move to the gates. Maybe trent, rini, chet, marcus, terry, freddie or countless other skiing bad asses could chime in, but i would bet it's different for everyone.
  3. for me i think my turn in speed is more important then how high. it's easy to get up on the boat at the home sight with decent conditions. If I can carry a little speed on my roll in i'm good to go usually. BUT.. If I just Lean out wide then I loose speed in my glide and back foot it to 1
  4. agree wth @6ball. It's moving up on the boat. If you try to get wide, as a soon as you go into your glide you will just get sucked back in.
  5. I've had a '08, '09 '12,'13,'14','15,'16, '17 and 20. there all good. on the 08-14 i put more weight up front in the nose. It helped to lock down the boat for tracking. Also, malibu's have big gas tanks. we usually would only fill to 1/2 tank max. hope this helps
  6. but what octane would you need
  7. @The_MS i think you meant to say cornhole club not curling club :smile:
  8. @ToddL you have seen the budget posted somewhere in the 56 pages. What would make you think they can make a ski specific safesport video.
  9. @Drago for president. Wait that isn't being political is it?
  10. Mongo was one of a kind. Would see him many times a year at local tourneys and regionals and nationals Always a smile and some great stories. He was a legend on a waterski and as said before a 'gentle giant'. I'm not sure how many times he won nationals or broke a national record, but it was a bunch. He will be greatly missed. I feel awful for his friends who skied with him daily and his family. Rest in peace, Mongo
  11. I thought it was made of titanium. :)
  12. you are right. i'll be living in a van down by the river soon if this doesn't get finished by springtime. I just giggle and drink to fill a hole in my heart. I'm going to drive to houston tonight and see if i can get a hug. i'm down to 3 friends. help me... skidawg is that you near the bright light. :)
  13. your question kinda made me giggle. it's such a specific yet random hypothetical. petty theft and 5 year old DWI? I don't know, but I think it's funny.
  14. but can a felon with petty theft and a dwi count bouys wants to know
  15. Is it the same person you know that has a petty theft and a DWI. Or is this 2 different felons you hang out with?
  16. @Bruce_Butterfield I think it's been hashed over pretty well that some don't fear the background ck and some really fear the background cks. i thought the reason on one of the other 47 pages was it was a liability/insurance issue. If i were you a would be scared :smiley: Can you imagine if someone stole @The_MS 's identity. Two @The_MS 's out there. One that likes kids and domestic beer and the other that hates kids and drinks IPA's One that's happy, one that's sad Please dont steal his identity. I don't think we're ready for that.
