  1. Do you know if he has a website up like before? Or is this a call/email only sorta thing? I’m not seeing a website thru a Google search. It used to be www.usgearonline.com Thanks, Steve
  2. Best handles I’ve ever used. Top quality and nobody makes a handle that’s as practical regarding overall shape/design. Glad to see they’re back!🤙
  3. This boat is exactly what I would purchase and hopefully when funds become available, I can upgrade my 2000 RLX to a 2020 Malibu Response TXR, Loudon TN built! Kids are pretty expensive though, so might have to wait for the 2036 model! :D
  4. Would love to be able to use my iPhoneX, because that’s pretty much my exclusive picture/video device because of how good it is and easy to use. I’m wondering if anyone is using the Wakeye anti vibration mount devicee, attached to the XT One? That might be the setup if it works with the iPhoneX to remove the wavy vibration stabilization crap.
  5. Is there anyone that is out there using and iPhone X with any sort of mount system? I'm interested to know if there is any issues with the rope shake on the slacked turns and if the high quality of the camera on the X can fix any of the issues if just zoomed back a little? I want a Wakeye, but the Ski-Doc pricing is soooo much better and if a good camera can fix a little, I might buy.
  6. 1. Nautique 200 2. 05-06 Malibu Response LXi 3. Mastercraft 197 4. Centurion Carbon Pro 5. 99-15 Malibu Response LX
  7. @Chef23, I will agree that all the new boats surely drive better than mine or anyone else’s 18yr old boat, and I’ll also agree that of all the new tow boats, the ProStar is easily the nicest looking one. I just can’t believe how much the MFGs are driving their sales towards wealthy people that think these boats look good, and clubs on private lakes. While I wouldn’t mind being in the shoes of either, I think it can be said that many of us(majority) are not looking to spend anywhere near $100k on a new tow boat that literally has almost no option of being anything other than a “3-event machine”. I trailer my boat, I camp with my boat, I spend time with friends and family with my boat, and I surely wake up early mornings to ski the shit out of it! I just want a tow boat that’s an event course capable boat, that can be easily used away from the course. I’ll have to stick with the used market!
  8. @skierjp, I still have a good old 2000 Response LX. And I'm no pro, but I can guarantee that most on this forum can ski just as well behind my 18yr old boat, as you could behind a current generation tow boat. And mine still looks good!
  9. Sorry guys, but the new Ski Nautique is ugly, just like the new Response and Prostar. I don't care if its a "hard-core" 3-event boat. It, along with its extremely high price tag are helping the waterski community kill off any new interest. Unless your a club with an annual promo boat or a school, I could never see anyone purchasing this thing and saying how good it looks. Please don't give me the "it's a 3-event boat only" BS, because thats like buying a double wide versus a standard house and saying its a house for sleeping only!!!! You still live in it and use it for other things. Ugggg......bring back the SN200, the PS197, or the Response LXi........boats that actually looks good and skied okay.
