Just picked up a new Vapor Pro. Looking forward to trying soon now that the ice is off!

Thanks @Wish, this was just sent to my wife! 

Been a Vapor guy for years, but would love to try the new Denali and curious about the pineapple. 

My dealer was shocked when I ordered my prostar for public water use. He said he hasn't sold a prostar outside of a club in years. 

@riplash did you end up buying the flight craft? I see it is now marked sold. Would love to see a rebuild thread if you did.

Jobe - SR Glass

Sportstech - great childhood memories.

Really not a fan of the front nose of this boat. As @RAWSki pointed out they pugged the GS front end like they did on the S model.

I was watching your restoration thread. Here is a pic of my brothers Brendella.

I want a copy of that poster for my brother. Anyone have a good copy?

I feel your pain. I have a 16 year old that plays football and hockey. Skates cost more that football shoulder pads. Now saying this, there are lots of options for good used gear in all sports if a person looks around. We have stores like Play It Again Sports for used gear.

One of the guys I ski with bought a GS22 this year and another ski buddy planned to order the GS20. The dealer said there will be a few changes for 2023 and it still hasnt been released, but it coming.

I couldn't agree more with this title, but only because my son is always on a surfboard and I cant seem to get him on the new Senate more than a couple times a year.

Try Malco cleaner and finish with 303 Protectant.

Just go to your local dealer and see when they are available to heat if for her. Pick up a new pair of gloves or rope when there. My dealer has been great and the heat molding does help. Unfortunately I have found that it helps more with width and shape than length. If it just touching it should help though.

I fit into a lot of items being discussed on this thread. I have a 21 Prostar, ski on a public lake and am not a member of any club or association. I purchased my own ski course for our lake and have a great group of skiers that connect on the weekends when we are at the lake. I also have a surf boat (dont hate), as my kids were spending all their time with other families on their boats. IMO I did this to spend more time with my kids and can have them bring their friends. There are ways to use a surf boat to limit the annoyance to others on the lake and the beaches, but most of the owners of these barges are uneducated or just assholes. The next hated issue is seadoo's and jet ski's. We have 2 of each and my daughter and friends love these (I hate them). This keeps my teenage daughter coming to the lake and getting outside and enjoying the water rather than sitting inside on social media.

Sorry I went off topic on the ski boat issue, but my point is that regular casual skiers still purchase new ski boats (me) and that an educated person on the water makes the difference not just the watercraft (barge or seadoo) that they are using.
