Baller cbuski Posted November 17, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 17, 2008 Just wanted to find out who is still skiing this late in the year. Got hooked with a place down here at SkiTek in Orlando and we are running daily so if anyone is looking for a set look us up on www.proskicoach.com!

Old MS Accout Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Friday AM. Glass. 38f water, 41 air. I had to put the dry suit on to get the magnets out before the ice forms. So I skied 1 last time. 28-32-32-32 fall at 4 ball and then I dove into the cooler of hot water. Who needs Orlando when you have awesome weather here in Minn.

Old MS Accout Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I had an Ice cream headace, so that guy has a lot warmer skull then I did. Look, I had to get the magnets out. As long as I was getting into huge shrinkage, I may as well enjoy it. We had ice around the lip of the lake on Wed, it melted by thursday afternoon. It was warmer then April 2nd when we skied on ice out. It was warm until I biffed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Lakewaterjunky Posted November 17, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 17, 2008 Election day was our last day in the water (central KY. btw). My eleven year old girl got in and skied with only a swimsuit and life vest, so Dad had to as well…Air Temp 74 Water temp 60… no wet suit, just swim trunks and a vest. Can you imagine what I would have put up with if I didn’t get in that day after my little girl skied? They would still be jabbing me over it. She was so excited about learning how to slalom late in the season, passing up the last chance before spring was simply irresistible I guess. Our youngest and Mamma were either both too chicken or the few smart ones in the boat that day. After the first buoy or two it was fine and we were glad to have one last good run before putting the boat to bed. Santa might bring wetsuits for the three of us to get back in the water early next year. My wife, on the other hand is not concerned at all about starting the season as early as the girls and I are, she thinks we’re nuts. Some people just don’t get it do they?

Baller roda Posted November 18, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 18, 2008 I skied a set last evening here in Orlando, air 58 / water 70. Going to be in the mid 30's tonight and breezy so we expect the water to be in the mid 60's by the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old MS Accout Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Now that is crazy. If I lived in Orlando, I would pick and choose when I ski. Here in Minn, we have to take what Ma nature (I mean Al Gore) gives us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller roda Posted November 18, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 18, 2008 Ha.... I did. I picked a time to ski when I wasn't at work, the kids or wife didn't need me, it wasn't dark, and no one was out on the lake on a jet-ski or wakeboard. One of my favorite days of the year is Dec 22nd.. it's longer than the day before it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller disland Posted November 18, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 18, 2008 Don and I are the last survivors here in Princeton. Winter has shown up. Just a week ago it was shorty's or nothing. Now water was down to 55 Air 65. Had to break out the dry suits. Jumpers are put away until Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old MS Accout Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 overnight lows in the 20s all over down south. It was warmer up here in Minn. Al Gore, fire up that private jet and warm things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller eleeski Posted November 19, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 19, 2008 Air 80s, water 60s (and glass) in San Diego and I have a broken toe (no I did not kick the building inspector) so just as the San Diego season gets going, I'm done for the year. The new boron and bamboo ski will have to wait to get developed.Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Roger Posted November 19, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 19, 2008 We usually ski year round here at Okeeheelee, just a handful of weekends that are too cold (or maybe not too cold if you're from far enough north). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Roger Posted November 20, 2008 Baller Share Posted November 20, 2008 scoke,Someone is skiing at Okeeheelee every day... Barring something unforseen, I would be there Saturday. I assume you're not towing your boat down, so you're welcome to ski with me if you like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
