Baller webbdawg99 Posted July 14, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 14, 2013 Here's a clip of my 35 off yesterday at the Georgia State Championships. This is probably the craziest recovery I've ever made. I'm just glad my wife caught it on camera! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ Wish Posted July 14, 2013 Baller_ Share Posted July 14, 2013 My European ski partners call that the "Bow to the Queen". THAT was some serious bowing!! Way to respect the Queen!! Great score!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller webbdawg99 Posted July 14, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted July 14, 2013 First photo shows my ski almost completely out of the water. Second photo is a full "bow" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klindy Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 @webdawh99 add about .005 to the fin depth and that should solve that problem. Seriously sometime you just need to hang on!! Way to never give up!! Nice score! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller webbdawg99 Posted July 14, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted July 14, 2013 @klindy What would that adjustment do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbrenchley Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I don't think a ski adjustment is needed unless you have that problem every pass....looks like you just took a bigger turn than you should have, but way to fight for the pass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted July 14, 2013 Baller_ Share Posted July 14, 2013 A fin adjustment at this point would be an insult to the Queen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klindy Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 @webdawg99 obviously you missed the sarcasm.....really awesome scramble and recovery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller webbdawg99 Posted July 14, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted July 14, 2013 Yea. I'm happy with the way the ski is setup. That was 100% skier mistake. If it happened consistently, then Id consider an adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klindy Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 haha - Good one @webdawg99. I remember that one very well. I was on the tower when he did that and said something like "Holy S*%@!!!!, Ummmm...Tower 1, 2-1/2!" on the radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Brady Posted July 15, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 15, 2013 @Wish I guess I am a damn brit, cause I not only do I bow to the queen, but most of the time I go ahead a completely kiss the ground she walks on! I am the friggin king of otf's.....errrrrrr worshiping the queen on my face. @webdawg99 Incredible recovery man, especially because you knew what would happen had you not made it. awesome!!

danspence Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 @webbdawg99 I bet the boat driver and judges faces were interesting when you took that pull. Nice one, where is the fun in letting go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MattP Posted July 15, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 15, 2013 Awesome skiing by @webbdawg99 this weekend. We all thought he had 38 in the bag. I was not as fortunate... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller webbdawg99 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Baller Share Posted July 15, 2013 Thanks @Bruce55! Now I just need you down here to straighten me back out! @Danspence The boat judge came up to me afterwards with a big smile on his face. He walks up, shakes my hand, and thanked me for the entertainment. @MattP Let's ski soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller MattP Posted July 15, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 15, 2013 @webbdawg99 for sure! It's been way to long! Ill teach you some more of my crazy recovery techniques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Not_The_Pug Posted July 15, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 15, 2013 Quote of the day from Greg Badal this weekend: "If you have rope, you have hope". It is kind of fitting for that recovery. Good job @webbdoqg99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jipster43 Posted July 16, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 16, 2013 What's the problem? That looks like me at every wake crossing. I'm available for clinics on the "linked spackle". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbrenchley Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 It wasn't in a tournament and of course I didn't make the course as you will see my backslide around 6 ball but I'd put my 2 ball up against just about anyone.
