Administrators Horton Posted August 29, 2012 Administrators Share Posted August 29, 2012 I asked Brooks for only a 2 two pass handicap at Soaked. I think that is only fair. He wants to compete straight up. I am old enough to be his dad. I only want 8 balls. Don't you think Brooks should cut me some slack?

Baller SkiJay Posted August 29, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2012 The only slack you'll get competing against Brooks will be if you pull too long ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skidawg Posted August 29, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2012 If u pay ur money and sign up, deal w it old man, u need to give brooks a 2 bouy handi bc of ur experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Texas6 Posted August 29, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 29, 2012 Horton was rounding buoys at a college in Louisiana before Brooks was even born. I like to think the experience can trump the exuberance in this situation. Maybe the switch to the Mapple will push it over the goal line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E_T Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 @Horton i say Brooks just has to run every pass twice with no drop. I'll call that fair Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted August 29, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted August 29, 2012 I hate to agree with @E_T but the little grey man has a good idea.

Administrators Horton Posted August 29, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted August 29, 2012 @Texas6 Looks like I will be taking the N1 with me to Soaked. I do did not want to fly with it but had a change of plans.

Baller Texas6 Posted August 30, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2012 Horton will not be switching skis on tournament day and instead will be bringing the N1. Rumor has it Brooks just called and asked Horton to spot him two passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 6balls Posted August 30, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2012 They should trade skis and run off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller fu_man Posted August 30, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2012 Both guys should use an old wooden Maherajah ski and call it even. That would be a cool idea for a tournament. Everybody skis on an old wood ski. The LaPoints would dominate again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted August 30, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted August 30, 2012 I could take him on wooden skis.

Baller Zman Posted August 30, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2012 Off topic a bit - but always thought it would be fun to have a tourny where everyone has to use a slalom ski at least 20 years old. Who has done that? Was it fun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 6balls Posted August 30, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2012 I'll run my EP GX3 or FX200, no wing, adjustable binders. Shoot, at 20 yrs could run an EP Stiletto or KD 7000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller fu_man Posted August 30, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 30, 2012 Continuing with off topic .....could be on to something here. Classic inboards pull the skiers. Boating enthusiasts would love it. Like a classic car show. Participants must have long hair and a beard. Skiers can only wear jean cut off shorts....no vests only the belt. Would be interesting to see the world's top skiers compete and see how they do. Kind of like....hey what happened to the link to the old, old videos from O'brien, Horton Lakes, etc. Those were cool.

Baller Zman Posted August 31, 2012 Baller Share Posted August 31, 2012 Maybe we should start a thread about "vintage slalom tournament"? I like the classic inboard boat and hippy look idea too. But, instead of using old skis with big hard wakes - maybe a two round tourny: one round with modern boats, 20+ year old skis; second round, modern skis and classic inboards - like a Ski Tigue.

Administrators Horton Posted August 31, 2012 Author Administrators Share Posted August 31, 2012 I tried to start the "Wooden Underground Slalom Society" (WUSS) a few years ago but no one was really interested. I still have a t-shirt somewhere. Brooks is still a bad man for not spotting me a few balls. I am an old man!

mshaw200 Posted September 1, 2012 Share Posted September 1, 2012 @Jody Seal I love correcting you when you're wrong. :) If you notice the format has been changed so that all male skiers will be going 35mph..... Should make for some really interesting scores on a 4 buoy course. Hope conditions are decent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
