Wait…what? I thought big spray was the goal of every instructional thread on this site. I'm so confused. Have we learned nothing from @Taelan28? I think the quote was "i likes the spray"...

@Razorskier1 seems to be somewhat of an "Ultra" slalom skier. I could use a ski partner with that sort of commitment and addiction!

...and then all boats can be different...and different motors within like boats may feel different...Good Luck!

@Horton...can we please close this thread. It scares me...

Thanks...I just forwarded the link to the appropriate people for my Birthday/Christmas present!

@jibbo…so which wakeye do I buy to have it come with the universal phone mount shown in the top video? Looking at the website, I could only see the phone specific ones...

The highest G-Load I've experienced skiing is when my lower chest impacted the first wake a few years ago. Not sure the G-load, but enough to break ribs...

Apparently not for the last time…some good discussion below: http://ballofspray.com/forum#/discussion/7670/leading-and-trailing-arm-for-the-last-time-ever

I never played the video...looks pretty sweet though!

Sweet photo @Horton...surely you can photoshop BoS Centurion #2 into it!

@Horton… @waterskigirl…I think the new Centurion is a sweet boat, and I'm a huge fan of all white (silver is sweet too), but unfortunately I'm not in the market for a new boat right now. You folks should have no problems turning those!

@waterskigirl...If i could get a boat with all white e'vry thing...I would.

I usually know its time to replace a rope when some of the guys I ski with start making comments like "dude you need a new rope," or "are you really going to ski with that?" I guess a rope lasts me a little over a season of skiing.

@Broussard...is this the color you need? http://www.ski-it-again.com/php/skiitagain.php?topic=Search&category=Comp_Boat&postid=29679

@Horton…your post to @GAJ004 seems to insinuate that the folks at CC are not as meticulous about boat design and releasing to the public as they've previously been. Is this what you intend to suggest, or am I reading it wrong?

@JWebSki...I like that design, but maybe the course on the back. My personal preference is minimal logos on the front and put the design on the back...just my .02

I like @Bowty or @Oldjeep's course design, but maybe portrayed vertically on the back of a shirt with just the BallofSpray logo on the front

@ShaneH…sometimes they have girls at those bars. You should put your phone down….

@livetoski...could you please expand on your comments regarding '"you put the ski on a platform, therefore your warranty is not valid" just pisses me off.' I'm not following you here.... @scotchipman...I've never owned a Goode, but I'll admit I'm slightly hesitant based on rumors I hear about them having shelf lives of only a few years. Is this bad gouge, or do Goode skis really fade in performance in a relatively short duration compared to other skis... Thoughts from anyone...?

I'd be interested to see what other guys think, but I feel like some of the highly experienced skiers (a lot of which are on this forum) can get away with starting closer to their toughest passes. Using @Horton as an example he has probably run 32' hundreds, if not thousands, of times. He has years and years of muscle memory in that pass. It is a no brainer for him. On the contrary a guy who may have a similar PB (I'm guessing into 39'), but not run nearly as many passes over the years might want to start at 28'...?...? Personally I'm actually trying to cut back on my number of passes. I ran a set in a tournament this year from a 32/15 opener into 36/35 (7 passes)....I guess I was trying to get my entry fee back in gas used! I've only been course skiing for 3 years and I still sometimes feel like I need those early passes. I now typically only do it for my 1st set of a 3 round tourney, and then start a little shorter for the other 2. FWIW...I'm now shooting for my 4th or 5th pass to be my toughest....

@E_T...I can only assume your post is entirely saracastic based on your username and completely ambiguous bio information. Well played...I think?

Yawn...

I just need that garage and lake...

I don't have kids, but if i did, I'd love for them to be "begging" to go tournament skiing! Congrats..

I'm fairly confident the '13 (orange/graphite) and '14 (red or pink/graphite) are the same ski...just different colors.
