    SN 206 VS MC 205

    ALPJr replied to dbaconaz's topic in Boat Talk

    I skied on a pond with a 92 PS205. The PS 205’s prior to the hull change in 97/98? were the same hull as the 91 - 94 PS 190 hull and had excellent slalom wakes with some skier spray at -35 and shorter. After the hull change the wakes were bigger, more like a crossover boat. I haven’t skied the SN 206. Only heard they were on the pretty large side.

    There was that video a few years back about Rodgers’ quest to run 43 at 43(yrs old). I don’t recall any updates on it though.

    Size 10 shoes and on the third pair of size 10 Vapor boots. Papa Smurf suggested skiing in them a few times and they will break in and form around your feet and ankles.

    Thanks, that was a good question and chat guys. Imo the webcasts by TWBC are knocking it out of the park. I like that we have a schedule and flexibility to plan to see our fav’s in the prelim’s, or we can carve out time to tune in for the finals, or wait til the next day for the wrap up. Sure if there was a 90’s/Moomba festival or two that would be great. Back to the question… I’m in the same camp as Rob in that -38 starts would not produce the best scores, or increase viewership considerably, and could lead to avoidable injuries.

    Did you try contacting your pro shop?

    Seems like a good match and I was able to score one of these cool shirts when I ordered new gloves and bindings. 😁

    Maybe @dbski can help you? He does an amazing job.

    Thanks so much @Luzz. It’s been a great run and I can’t think of a better way to finish then by hosting your dad. Best!

    Great stuff @Horton! That was basically what my buddies and I did growing up skiing around the creeks and coves of south Jersey shore back in the day, with a fast little outboard, a CompX2, pair a tricks, kneeboard, step offs and some scary rope. Prolly had the same tunes going on the beach 😁

    Grew up skiing in the bays, coves, rivers and creeks in the Great Egg Harbor Estuary in southern New Jersey. Skied through the inlets and out in the ocean a few times too.

    Great cause, great event and great people! Especially happy that the Easter Bunny was able to get a set in 😁

    Yes @Gloersen makes sense. Imagine two football players standing at the goal line. One runs straight down the right hash marks and the other player runs a zig zag between the right and left hashes, and both get to the opposite goal line in the same amount of time. Who travelled faster?

    Does the playpen allow for under bow(playpen floor) storage? If so that’s worth something.
  21. ALPJr
    Hmm… seems to me that @Dragois right on the avg speed and @Rednucleusis right on the variability of speed between the peak highs and the lowest lows. Everything else sounds like it’s still to cold to ski in a bunch of places 😊

    My friend built a 9’ wooden two seater hydro and put 20hp Johnson on it - did about 30mph and we skied it with combos when we were 12 - 13 yrs old.
  23. ALPJr
    We had good luck with HO Blast combos and the stock bindings were pretty good for combos.
