Baller Rednucleus Posted January 1, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 1, 2019 Warmed up to 72 degrees today (40A 32W); think spring is in the air. What a wonderful way to start the New Year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller UWSkier Posted January 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 3, 2019 Unseasonably cold in the Southwest for the past week but looks like we're returning to decent temps by the weekend. Should get the first runs of '19 tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller 75Tique Posted January 4, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 4, 2019 I was going to ask if it had to involve a ski, but cnewbert already answered that question for me. Many of us started the year out at the Lake Norman NC New Years Day Barefoot Challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Rednucleus Posted January 6, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 6, 2019 74 today (40A 34W), water going up from 32 means feet numb by 5th pass vs 4th last time. Also took wing off after reading BOS topics - 30-32mph 15 off; easier to go 2nd wake to ball and much better pre-gate glide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller markn Posted January 7, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 7, 2019 Another warm day in central Florida 1/7/19 on Lake Minnehaha for 10 passes. Trying to keep the streak going and stay in ski shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller UWSkier Posted January 7, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 7, 2019 @braindamage is down in AZ this week so we got out over the past weekend. First sets of the year were pretty good though the water is a bit colder than expected due to unseasonably cold nights last week. Water down to upper 50s.

MarkSAU Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Just back from holiday, but by virtue of the date line in Australia my 7am ski on New Years Day might be close to the podium... PS was warm day downunder... thats 120F on the car but was closer to 108F on the water.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller aupatking Posted January 9, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 9, 2019 Wednesday night and Thursday night lows are supposed to be 33 and 32F. Had to make today count and get a good lunch break quick set it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller jimski Posted January 14, 2019 Baller Share Posted January 14, 2019 @markn it's not so much being tough it's the cabin fever from the endless rain on the west coast. When the sun comes out I get outside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
