Chris Parrish Sets a New World Record (Pending) - 2 buoys @ 43′off

COVINGTON, LA – Chris Parrish set a pending Men’s Slalom World Record of 2 buoys @ 43’off (9.75m) in the first round of the Sunday, June 13, 2010 Ski Ranch tournament. This scores beats his previous record of 1-1/2 buoys @ 43’off (9.75m) that he originally set on August 28, 2005.

“Wow, unbelievable!” said an excited Chris Parrish. “I can’t believe it! I am stunned.” After gaining composure from the moment, he said, “The Ski Nautique 200, with its great pull and small flat wake, let my GOODE 9900SL take me to a new Personal Best and the World Record! Chad (Chad Scott, boat driver) was dialed in and in a zone! I still can’t believe it!”

When asked about the new GOODE BubbleBuoys that were being used at the tournament, Chris said, “It is such a comfort to know that if you hit a BubbleBuoy you have less of a chance of having an injury.”

Site News
General Content

In the last few weeks BallOfSpray was under attack by hackers. The site was down for a number of days. I have changed hosting providers and hired a developer to tear everything apart and put it back together the way it should be.

 BallOfSpray pays its bills with advertising so if you want to help, please consider Goode, Radar, O’Brien, Reflex, H2Osmosis or EZ-Slalom for your next equipment purchase. It also would not hurt if you told everyone you know about BallOfSpray.
