  1. In a nut shell my vision has evolved to where I strive to look towards the turn buoy until I’m sure I’ll get around it, then try to shift my focus down course until I’m back into the cutting phase where my vision shifts towards the pylon until, the exit from the wakes where hopefully I’m ready to pick up the next turn buoy.
  2. What Pat M said… I wear an O'Neill short sleeve basic skin under my Shorty and it just about stops the zipper trickle.
  3. The VTX with dbl Ninety Eights was one of my fav’s. I replaced that with a Phantom Carbon, which Eddie told me it was the CDX mold with a carbon lay up. Stayed on that shape for 15 seasons :)
  4. The Rocky Mountain site looks good. The twenty five and fifty set packages seem reasonable considering the cost of operations.
  5. I’m 6’2” 170lbs and have been on a 68 since mens 3. I dropped to 32mph two seasons ago and stayed on a 68. I tried a few 67’s and a couple wider skis over the years and they did not work for me.
  6. I went from 34 to 32 mph a few seasons ago to help preserve my body. I was on a 68” at 34 and stayed with one at 32 and didn’t change settings. I’m on a D3 IonS now, very close to factory. I’ll ski ZBS at 32 in tourneys until mens 7 in 2 more years.
  7. RH and LFF. My dad always encouraged to be able to go to the hoop ? with my left hand as well.
  8. D3 plates also have nice fore and aft micro just holes built in.
  9. The TWBC Swiss Highlights Recap - ready for Primetime!
  10. All good ideas there. Makes sense to me for the participants/families to cover the bulk of the costs, and perhaps have a minimal fee for others - webcast spectators only.

  12. Any experience with this place and are they still in business?
  13. Chuck Forest, Leigh Sheldrake, Ken Autore, David Spencer come to mind, but not sure they may have won some pro stops?
  14. Loving my Vapor Carbitex boots for a few years now but this sure looks like a lot of hit or miss with lots of moving parts. Reminds me a little of when the first iteration of the rear lace Animal boot was released around 2001. The lace and wrap had to be redesigned in the first year.

    Shooo… politics would be easier to handle than this thread morphing into high octane jib jabs.
  16. That past two seasons have brought us high water and some lumpy gravy, so it’s been drop for the most part. With more normal water levels I’d sometimes spin for back to backs in early spring and late fall.
  17. Thought the volt was one of the earliest on the market about ten years ago. I think it’s more along the lines of today’s plug in hybrids which can get ~40 - 75 miles on electric depending on conditions before switching on the gas.
  18. Last nights double OT was one of the best games ever! Even better for Huskies fans!
  19. @Than_Bogan yes I remember a how to article or video that Jamie did on that.
  20. Call Performance Ski and Surf @perfski. They can get you going in the right direction.
