Phil2360 Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 You mean these? http://www.solowatersports.com/ Think It would be interesting seeing a strong skier behind one! Other words that come to mind include "Out of Control" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller XR6Hurricane Posted April 1, 2013 Baller Share Posted April 1, 2013 The reaction of our local cops would be worth preserving on video. But I bet the wake is second to none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aswinter05 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Hahaha, no way! According to GizMag.com, a new one costs around $7,500 If you can stand watching it long enough... it's worth it to see the ending Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg1993 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 Phil, yeah one of those. I was curious if anybody has one and what they think of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Brady Posted April 1, 2013 Baller Share Posted April 1, 2013 @aswinter05 Gotta love the banana pull that it gives you. I bet you Dr. Jim could run 43 off on the solo! I would pay anyone $5,000 if that device could pull my ass up from a double-boot deep start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ed_Obermeier Posted April 1, 2013 Baller Share Posted April 1, 2013 Saw one demo'ed several years ago when they hadn't been around too long. Couldn't pull a slalom skier up at all but on a wakeboard it would pull you up if you worked at it a bit. The boarder trying it yanked it all over the place. Basically a reconstituted POS wave runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg1993 Posted April 1, 2013 Author Share Posted April 1, 2013 I use to wakeboard behind my yamaha fx-140 back before I sold it. It was fairly easy to get up on plane. It as a pig of a ski, over 800lbs, and even with my 200lb friend driving it I was still able to pull the back end around. I was thinking the solo ski might be ok for wake skating.

Baller jipster43 Posted April 1, 2013 Baller Share Posted April 1, 2013 When I think of all the times I've not skied for the lack of a driver.... It sure would be nice to see this technology perfected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil2360 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 @MattP, We need a fund to get @Horton to demo one. 35 off free skiing with a camera chase plane. Would make superb entertainment seeing it being dragged all over the pond. Should draw more interest than "Horton does long line" challenge did! Maybe the one with the "Tower" would be the one to trial. Just need to come up with the Challenge component of the whole exercise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
