LCZ Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 Have to attend a work conference starting Saturday, April 12. Brutal winter here in Ohio so I'd love to get in a couple sets if possible. Still some ice on the lake here. Water temps approached 70 in March two years ago... Can drive, bring gas money, and provide mediocre coaching. Thanks, Larry.

Members Moskier3ev Posted March 25, 2014 Members Share Posted March 25, 2014 I am at Bennett's that weekend Eating Beer, Drinking crawfish and taking a few pokes. I know there is a drivers clinic here at San Marcos River Ranch on the 12th they may be looking for skiers. I am sure someone else from our site will respond.

Members LZywicki1 Posted March 26, 2014 Members Share Posted March 26, 2014 Was going to write just about the same post in a week or two. Heading down from frozen Michigan to San Marcos the first week of May to see my daughter get her Masters from Texas State and help her with the move back home. Also looking to get some water time in, gas, cash wash and wax your boat. Another Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Kelvin Posted March 26, 2014 Baller Share Posted March 26, 2014 @onamission Any chance your daughter is a skier? The ski team could use a few more girls. We are having a collegiate tournament at Lakes of Katy (2 hrs from San Marcos) on April 5th if she is interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LZywicki1 Posted March 26, 2014 Members Share Posted March 26, 2014 @Kelvin She does ski and even tried tricking when I went down last fall to visit. But with grad school, her thesis being due soon and also getting married this fall, skiing probably not on her mind but I will ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colo_skier Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 @kfennell Thanks for letting me get a chance to see SMRR. If I get another chance to get down there I will have to bring a ski. SMRR looks like a great place to live and ski. If any BOSers get a chance and an invite to ski SMRR take advantage of it. 40 minutes from Austin airport and really easy to get to. Kevin, good luck with the "project" and hope to see some neat video on BOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skihard Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 I'm a few hours away but always more than willing to give anyone a tug if they are in the Houston area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCZ Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 @kfennell Thanks for the invite! I'll be in touch. @Moskier3ev Sounds like the perfect weekend. I'll settle for just getting away from this endless winter for a few days though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCZ Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 Just wanted to say thanks to @kfennell and the other great hosts at the San Marcos River Ranch. For those that haven't skied there, it's quite an impressive site and I hope to be back in August for Nationals. It was a fierce day for wind though! Sustained 20 mph+ with stronger gusts. I reduced the release setting on my new Reflex setup to just below 5 last year and pre-released on both sets due to all the chop. Cranked it up to about 5.5 after the second incident. My previous Reflex was dialed in around 6 but the block on the back of the boot is different now. The Reflex manual prescribes a 4.5 release setting for my weight at 34 mph but this seems too low for me. I'd rather work up from a setting that is too low than the reverse though...

LCZ Posted April 17, 2014 Author Share Posted April 17, 2014 For clarity, I was pre-releasing after the second wake during the transition. It was almost white cap conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kstateskier Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 SMRR is indeed a phenomenal place to ski! Takes alot of wind to whitecap that place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LZywicki1 Posted May 2, 2014 Members Share Posted May 2, 2014 I would like to say thanks to all of San Marcos skiers that offered pulls. Your hospitality to a poor frozen northerner is greatly appreciated and hope to see you all next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
