  1. If @Horton isn't feeling up to the harassment I'm thinking @DumbAss is a great next choice! :)

     

    Great site, great people, and the simple fact that we the users of this site get to connect with top industry folks from manufacturing, repairs, pro skiers, and hacks like me makes me love this place even more!

     

    Your site Horton you make the rules and don't lose any sleep over tossing anyone who isn't following the rules!

  2. I try to get Trent over a couple times a year and we have always had successful clinics during his visits.

    Keep your eyes on the board because I always put it out there for all you freaks to come take a lesson/set or two with him when he's here.

     

    Speaking of which dude................we should chat about a fall clinic soon! :)

  3. I think there could have been a few other suggestions available on the top a selections for why I chose "All of the Above".

    Until the top brass start taking their heads out of their a**es and seeing what's happening to the sport and the refusal to accept that change is necessary we will continue to see a decline in the sport.

    Times change, people change, and the requirement to change with the changing times is needed.

    Growth and fun is happening in some areas based on people in those areas taking initiative to develop their own leagues and rules. ie; Buckeye Tour, Wednesday Night Ski League, and the tournaments held in Austin (sorry I can't remember the name right now). And yes even Horton himself with teh ProAm's he works so hard to set up and run.

    Big Congrats to these guys. They've taken a different approach with the same mind set in place - you still need to swerve around as many buoys as you can but how you personally score and maybe how your teams scores is different than the rules of 19 whenever.

    If the sport isn't going to accept change to accept diversity it will continue to see falling numbers in membership.

  4. My Slasher is comfy but hasn't lasted very long and is already coming apart. P*sses me off because the retailer when contacted wants me to send it to O'Neil for warranty rather than them replacing it.

    Good thing my wife can sew but not so good as it will probably be my last O'Neil vest.

  5. It's upon us! Water temp gauge on my boat yesterday afternoon at 4:40 said our lakes are currently sitting at 94 degrees. And wow it's only 1/2 way into June.

    Thinking we will be close to 100 again sooner than later!

     

    But hey we ski them! :)
