Baller webbdawg99 Posted July 29, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 29, 2013 We all love posting up pics of our perfect form and beautiful spray. The ugly ones we keep hidden away in some secret file! It's time to show them to the world with pride. It just so happens that my submission comes from yesterday's Southern Regionals. @MattP taught me this move...

Baller MattP Posted July 29, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 29, 2013 @Webbdawg99 did pull out of this at 4 ball and ran the pass. This is the second time I've seen this move from him in the past few weeks! Awesome skiing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klundell Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 I've posted these before but this was two ball 35-off at 2011 Western Regionals. Somehow made it around 3 and all the way to 5 before this caught up to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller KcSwerver Posted July 29, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 29, 2013 Head in the water, powershells in the air, ski 5 feet back. This was my last ride of the year for last year. Last day untill it dropped to 40 degrees. Guess that's the best time to fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Garn Posted July 29, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 29, 2013 This was taken a couple of years ago at our club site on Utah Lake. It was my first set of the season, hence the drysuit, and my first wipeout. And it was an over-the-front doesy!null Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ MISkier Posted July 29, 2013 Baller_ Share Posted July 29, 2013 Just a bit of tip rise here. Or, rather, just the absolute minimum amount of ski remaining in the water. I have so many awful pictures, it's hard to pick just one. The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller jimbrake Posted July 29, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 29, 2013 I despise this picture. I swear I don't normally look this inept at what should be the point in the course where you should be the most perfectly stacked, aligned over your feet, etc. I remember this gate as I was thinking I was going to miss and so was actually purposely letting up a bit to get my ski to at least run over the right hand ball. Yeesh. Hate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller jimbrake Posted July 29, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 29, 2013 @Than_Bogan - re: Nationals 2000. With respect to the other threads about the low numbers of M3 in the various regionals, I ran 2@38 at the 2000 Nationals and tied for 32nd in M3. I think M3 that year had about 527 guys in it, so I was happy with a piece of 32nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller XR6Hurricane Posted July 30, 2013 Baller Share Posted July 30, 2013 Slightly too much bias to the rear foot. And yes that knot in the rope was to repair a propeller cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popof Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Ok; I only have ONE, but I figured it was worth it. I personnally shot this one, in Acuaski, Mexico. Skier is the owner of the place, Sergio ramirez, some of you might know him. Driver is Marcos. That's the place the Font's used to ski before they (i think) moved to the states. Sergio was hitting it hard, caught some MAJOR slack on ball 2 (or 4 I don't remember), but somehow managed to get back into a somewhat good position before he was slingshot to the next buoy, came in so fast he sort of "wooped" his ski around the buoy and swung around the handle as if he was a monkey swinging from a pole. I figure I was just lucke to be shooting in burst mode, the shot before this one, he is behind the boat. The shot after this one, he is a huge ball of spray. Lucky Beginner Photographer I guess. Needless to say the set stopped right there with a torn neck and some other bruises and scratches. I always smile when I look back at this pic :) (given he made it ok through it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
