Baller_ Popular Post Wish Posted March 25, 2023 Baller_ Popular Post Share Posted March 25, 2023 If you think there should be a federal ban on jet skis… If your ski budget exceeds your household food and everything else budget…. If you owned a ski boat before you owned a vehicle strong enough to pull it…. If you have a box full of bindings and fins cause throwing them out seems wrong…. If you have a rack of old skis..same reason… If you own a two car garage and both cars remain outside in the elements… If you pretend to be at the office… If your trucks only purpose in life is to put a boat in and take it back out… If your dock is the second most expensive structure on your property… If you consider yourself the luckiest man on earth cause your wife drives you through the slalom course… If you feel you’ve died and gone to heaven cause she drives …AND skis… If you own more then one pair of calipers… If your first thought upon seeing a lake is deciding if you think a course may or may not fit… If you’ve measured those lakes on Google earth to see if you’re right... If your response to the doctor telling you ..do not walk on your sprained ankle is to ask.. “but can I go ahead and ski on it”?… If your vacation planing involves finding both a place to ski and things for your wife to do… If you scheduled your wedding in the winter months and told her it’s because you find snow beautiful… If you have a melt down picking up that gas can you thought was full… If you restrain from screaming at a newby that steps on your boat seat like it’s a stepping stool... If it pains you to use gas pulling tubes… If your Christmas, Father’s (mothers) Day and birthday lists consist only of ski gear or a gas cards… If you get disgusted when you tell someone you water ski and they ask if you do those pyramids things or can barefoot… If you delay your wife’s epidural during a painful delivery cause you got chatty with the anesthesiologist who happened to be a skier. (yep, I did that)…. If you don’t think twice about boasting loudly to your ski buddy that he “had the best looking 2 ball of the day” and you have yet to exit the store... If you fist pump when you hear the weather man utter the words “sunny and calm” for the next days forecast… If you have that new ski shipped to your office or buddies house to avoid conflict... If you think she doesn’t know you bought a new ski… If a 2 hour drive is nothing when it comes to that 17 second thrill ride... If all of the T-shirts you own have something to do with waterskiing... If you think it’s worth a speeding ticket to make it to the lake before dusk... If you feel Daylight savings is the work of the devil... If the only two seasons in your life are ski season and waiting for ski season… If you own a website dedicated to the sport of waterskiing as primary source of income… 20 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller DoubleD Posted March 25, 2023 Baller Share Posted March 25, 2023 Those are great, and so many of them have been me. Especially seeing a lake and then pulling out my phone to check the length on Google. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller morfoot Posted March 26, 2023 Baller Share Posted March 26, 2023 ....your personal fleet of boats are all inboards that have a ski pylon because EVERYONE needs a spare just in case your primary tow boat goes down. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Wiltok Posted April 27, 2023 Baller Share Posted April 27, 2023 You look at any body of water that is glass calm - no matter how small - and think how great it would be to ski. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Nautique99 Posted May 2, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 2, 2023 I honestly thought I was the only person who measures random lakes on Google maps - thought I had some weird / unique quirk 😆 Apparently I'm just a waterskier - what a relief! 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Slalom.Steve Posted May 15, 2023 Baller_ Share Posted May 15, 2023 You get unprompted texts from your brother (and fellow skier) that say things like: "The wind has been below the forecasted level for the past 90 minutes." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 6balls Posted May 15, 2023 Baller Share Posted May 15, 2023 Yeah I'm at 22 check boxes there from that list. One year one of my ski partners--as george thorogood would say--done lost his job. But he rebounded with his own business working from home--he could go anytime any day just worked around it. July descended on us and no shit the MONTH was warm/sunny/calm. We skied 30 of 31 consecutive days. Sure there were a few windy days in there but we had so many courses nearby set up on small lakes found on google earth (ok not really but I've done that), that we were golden if the wind were west, northwest, south or southeast. Was a very cool summer. Vapor Lithium that year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
