That's 24-28K for listed prices. I forgot to specify.

Get a cobalt! That boat offers you amazing value. It's a stern drive so a the touch of a button(trim button) you can have the wake size however you want it. Not sure what size your looking at or price range. But you can get a cobalt 226 which is 24ft with swim platform from 24-28. And those are '02-'06. It's the best boat on the water. Whether you wanna ski, wakeboard or ride around in style. You can't go wrong with a cobalt!

Well I decided to get a 2011 model of the Radar Senate! 67". Thanks for all of the help guys! Can't wait to get that thing on the water!!

Hey you gotta look good while your doin it! Haha

Ok. Well I was just thinking length wise. I mean Im pretty tall. Obviously my current ski is way to short. I was just curious. I think I'll give them a call.

Ahh I see. Thanks for the link. I'll look more into the theory. I just like the style of the senate. Would you say 67" or 69"?

Well I looked at that as an option but it looks too wide. I have a O'brien Sequence along with the Mapple and I hate it because it's so wide. Do you know the actual width of that ski?

good looking ski! A little on the pricy side. I think I might go with the 2011 Radar Senate. I know it doesnt have red on it but my red boots will go with the white and black on the ski. Now my next question is will my O'brien X9 bindings line up properly with the Radar screw holes??

Yea I Radar is sounding really good right now. I just wish they had the senate in RED. I'm currently a ARKANSAS Razorback. So I gotta have my razorback red, especially since I am a track athlete for the hogs.

@horton Yea I like the idea of that. Do they make it in red? I gotta have red... Is Radar a reputable brand? I've been skiing since I was 15 and all I have ever skied on was O'brien. So I don't know anything else. Their website and products look legit. I just wanna make sure I'm gettin my money's worth out of it. Are their other brands I should consider? I know I don't want Connelly. @brent I bought new boots when I got the ski. The ones that came on the Mapple were worn out.

@horton Typically i ski in the range of 30-34. I try to ski every weekend and I'll go during the week every now and then. So probably 4 days a week in the summer time. Price range for me is somewhere around 400-600. I can justify buying a nice ski because I know it will get used a bunch. I have a 69" O'brien sequence that I use every now and then but it's just way to wide for my liking. @brent I am in Arkansas. So beaver lake is my home. So I don't have much available to me as far trying stuff out.

Hey guys, I am trying to find a new ski that will elevate my game. I am 6'5" 175 and I am currently on a Andy Mapple (O'brien) and I love it. The only problem is its 64" and can be really difficult to get up on sometimes. Partly because I need a new boat, and probably because it's to short for me. I love the style and smoothness of this ski. Especially the amount of water it sprays. By no means am I a expert, but I consider myself a pretty good skier. I have looked at a couple of O'briens but I have recently discovered Radar which seems to be pretty legit. If y'all could send me some of your recommendations I would greatly appreciate it!!
