@LeonL I believe the HydroGate was an option on the SE in 2008. It should have a fixed piece of aluminum screwed to the hull where the HydroGate would be.

My dad took a fall in the yellow KD bindings back in 2004. His front foot came half way out of the binding resulting in a Lisfranc. He had three screws put in and was non-weight bearing for almost 6 months. It's not a quick recovery but he runs ~20 miles a week and has no problems skiing today.
Good luck! Feel free to message me. Will be happy to pass on any questions you have.

@6ball I think that's 6520!

Corey Vaughn has a ski school about an hour from Richmond. He has an awesome site and is a great coach.
-
I pulled Corey Vaughn through a 32 off @ 40mph in practice mode. Granted the boat was probably still accelerating by 3 ball. Not the smartest idea we've had.

Check out what the Alabama Waterski Team has been up to this season.

@BraceMaker Exactly what I was talking about. Ideas on putting the the Voile pin in the place of the Reflex toe loop (or FM front block) and the Silvretta on the heel?
I'm going to build one over the off season. Pretty excited.

Wim Decree designed a binding that released, in theory, from every direction. He used a Voile ball and socket release for the front of the binding. (http://www.backcountry.com/voile-release-kit-w-brake) And used a spring loaded release in the back. I skied on his binding for a few seasons and it worked great. Some higher quality parts for the rear release would make for the safest binding on the market, in my opinion.
I thought about putting a Voile release on the front a Reflex plate. Would be a fun project.

I have driven and skied behind Rod's Carbon Pro quite a bit. It's pretty sharp looking and I would say the best wake out there for the slower speeds right now.

Curious who from here will be skiing Lyman's Record this weekend? I hear Parrish, Degasperi, and Regina will be there. Should be a fun weekend!

I'm driving from Orlando to Virginia today with Corey Humburg and wouldn't mind breaking up the drive with a set! We've got a shiny new Centurion following us. 757-746-9932

Responding to your point on real business, is that not part of the problem? How many people that run USA Waterski actually come from some kind of watersports background? Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think there are many. I realize that not many competitive skiers aspire to run USAWS one day, but I feel like that is what we need; someone that understands what works in the real world and what will not.
I completely agree with you on the magazine... I remember reading in another thread how much the magazine cost to publish and couldn't believe how much money is going down the drain.

Apparently Alabama football coach Nick Saban enjoys strapping one on occasionally:
“I try to enjoy life,” Saban said. “I still waterski. I ride them jet skis as fast as they’ll go, and every two years, I get the fastest ones they make to replace the last ones. Every year, Miss Terry [saban’s wife, Terry Saban] has a fit, but that’s just the way it goes.”

@horton Anyone can spin 38? Let's see it.

This is the 39 from the first round:

Whitney ran 1@41 the first round and got the full 2 the second at the Hancock tournament today. Her 39 was incredible.
I'll post a video of the 39 soon.

What about some kind of float with an arm that extends upward with the camera mounted on it, then have this float tightly anchored to the bottom of the lake? Not sure how you would prevent this from rotating. Multiple anchors in different directions?

Find a local gym with a rock wall! Rock climbing helps my hand strength like nothing else. Very fun workout too.
