  1. You guys are old. The difference between you and me is I never got good. But I remember watching the LaPoints break the record after record, Syderhoud muscling through keeping pace, and one of my favorites was Jimmy McCormick on his tricks. Those were the days, my friends. Now I can't find any friends who will still waterski with me. "Take my grandkids," they all say.
  2. This thread took me back about 45 years. My first skiing was on jump planks that were stapled together. I learned slalom on a Taperflex. My first good ski was a Torque. The kid (15 or 16) that worked for Torque as a test rider used to come from Seattle and ski with us on his days off. I went to a Western Wood after that, then and EP tricks. Still have one of them. I had my Hydrodyne at the Seattle National Championships in 72 or 73 or close to that. We watched a kid clear 150' jump with a full front flip (by mistake). He landed on his skis by fell and it didn't count.
