Skied last month with a mens 8 or 9 skier that i just met at the lake i ski at and learned a cool term "gear".At first it was funny but after a while i found myself doing the same but with a big smile on my face.Talking about skier -driver communation when getting ready to be pulled out of the water to begin a pass.My guest who i just met was up first and when he was ready to go for his set he shouted "gear". I figured it out what he meant but there was a smirk on my face.30 mph 15 off no problem.22,28,32,and 2 @35 off the dock.Granted he had every brace made on ,he still rips.Once i embarassed my self barely running my opener @32mph 15 off.Had a fun time with a fellow skier that i didnt know and now i find myself using this term.lol
