Administrators Horton Posted August 12, 2015 Administrators Share Posted August 12, 2015 The Syndicate has one goal: build the world's greatest tournament water ski. Syndicate skis are more than water skis. They represent the pride, determination and passion of the sports' greatest minds and most talented athletes. For 2016, The Syndicate is proud to announce our greatest slalom super-ski to date, the all new Syndicate V-TYPE R. Elliptical Rocker, Matching Ski Width, Carbon Speed Skin and Stability Tuning are the details, but the proof is on the water. Check out some of the world's top pro skiers including Will Asher, Jon Travers, Matteo Luzzeri, Nick Adams, Breanne Dodd, Geena Krueger, Jaret Bull, Igor Morozov and more ripping turns on the all new V-TYPE R.

Baller aupatking Posted August 12, 2015 Baller Share Posted August 12, 2015 What is Elliptical Rocker? I'm having trouble conceptualizing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Ilivetoski Posted August 12, 2015 Baller Share Posted August 12, 2015 Looks like the tip rises out of the turn more than the past v type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chef23 Posted August 12, 2015 Baller Share Posted August 12, 2015 @Ilivetoski I don't believe you can make a general judgement on tip rise out of a video like this any more than the generalization I have seen about the Vapor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller aupatking Posted August 13, 2015 Baller Share Posted August 13, 2015 What do you mean @thager? You and I should release a new ski using elliptical rocker, infinite bevel, and 45 degree bi directional torsional flex. And a tail that wiggles? Seriously, there's some good stuff coming out now, I just have no idea what they're talking about here. Rocker, as I understand it, is lengthwise curvature, or possibly the degree of curvature in an arc. Elliptical? Are we saying half an ellipsis? Does that mean symmetrical rocker, lengthwise? I'm lost.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Member Than_Bogan Posted August 13, 2015 Gold Member Share Posted August 13, 2015 Infinite bevels do sound cool! I'm holding out for a transdimensional portal projector. Why pull when you can just teleport to the other side?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted August 14, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted August 14, 2015 @aupatking they spend months tweaking the tiniest details and the some marketing guy asks them to describe it. All of the ski companies say crazy crap in their ads. They can say whatever they want because we know when the ski hits the street skiers will either love it or not. My bet is this ski is going to be pretty successful.

Baller aupatking Posted August 14, 2015 Baller Share Posted August 14, 2015 @Horton if it's anything like the V-Type (I'm about to buy) I'm certain it's something special. I was just very curious about what design features created the "elliptical rocker" description. I've been on everything from the Syndicate team since the A1, and they've not let me down yet. Kinda been kicking myself for trying something different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mo2204 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 @aupatking If your question about the elliptical rocker is still up to date you should take a look at the 2016 catalog. It has a good picture of the rocker in it. There is a pdf in one of the discussions here http://www.ballofspray.com/forum#/discussion/13975/2016-ho-skis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Bill22 Posted August 24, 2015 Baller Share Posted August 24, 2015 @Than_Bogan how many rides do you get out of the portal projector before you have to recharge the ski? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
