Baller gjohnson Posted June 20, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2012 @E_T I don't understand how mixing the sexes of a sport , in your words, "is quite boring" will attract more regular viewers. My point was from a slalom enthusiast’s perspective. It doesn't get any more exciting than watching Whitney & Regina compete at such a high level. Amazing skiing.

Baller_ The_MS Posted June 20, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted June 20, 2012 Hire babes and put them in some dental floss, pan the shoreline in between skiers and you have 1/2 million viewers that watch Poker switching to watching skiing. Its that simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_T Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 @gjohnson. You hit it right on the head with "enthusiast" there are not enough in the sport to fully support the sport. That is why gimmks are needed because we need there MONNEY! No doubt watching Whit and Regina ski is amazing. But all the Wallys of the world need things to hold there interest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller gjohnson Posted June 20, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2012 @E_T Unfortunately, I don't see competitive water skiing being anything more than a niche sport in the future. No matter how many gimmicks are tried, even MS's idea. Not that it hurts to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted June 20, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted June 20, 2012 The battle of the sexes of the pro tournaments I went to in the 90s had the most spectators headed to the lakeside to watch. It was a great attraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ The_MS Posted June 20, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted June 20, 2012 NBC sports channel ran the Nautique Wakeboard Games. It went like this. Show a boarder, show the babes on the shore. Interview a boarder, show the babes on the shore. Repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Not_The_Pug Posted June 20, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 20, 2012 Half the problem with watching anything on TV is we as skiers like to be outside doing rather than watching something like Poker or Golf on TV. We will DVR it for when it is dark. I know I don't watch live TV much anymore besides when it is dark or winter. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ForrestGump Posted June 24, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 24, 2012 That damn camera shutter sound in all of Goode's videos just pisses me off for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted June 24, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted June 24, 2012 Biggest difference i see from all the other vids of her is this time the tip stayed down. Don't know if it's the new ski but ya can't denie Dave Goode can make an amazing ski and has amazing riders. WOW! Enjoyed the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MattP Posted June 24, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 24, 2012 Key words... Dave Goode can make an amazing skijust one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller ForrestGump Posted June 24, 2012 Baller Share Posted June 24, 2012 Everyone who I've seen on this new ski looks the same..... the tip stays down and doesn't push back after the apex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member Than_Bogan Posted June 25, 2012 Gold Member Share Posted June 25, 2012 It's laughable for me to comment on Regina's skiing, but to my moderately trained eye she really looks a lot better on that ski. In every previous video I've seen of her, she has simply overpowered each line length's challenges. In this video she looks smooooth. Goode's have always worked well for me, so IF this one offers a real improvement in stability and consistency, without sacrificing much else, I could be interested...

Baller_ Wish Posted June 25, 2012 Baller_ Share Posted June 25, 2012 Is there any way that youtube or some other entity will allow you to slow down the video. I'd really like to get a better look at her gates and the timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
