  1. Lots of speculation here…. If it was another brand this post would have been buried in minutes.
  2. No more O’Brien for the chicks.
  3. GREAT SKIING CANADA!!
  4. It’s funny to me that manufacturers want skiers to hold back on records until they are behind said brand. Weird and definitely taking away from skiing. That was an interesting podcast episode.
  5. I’d say 2500-3500 mo plus a demo boat. I’m curious. It’s interesting. Arguably there are more eyes on pro waterskiing than ever…. More events.
  6. Like sports contracts, trades… we as a sport talk about stuff. It’s interesting!!!!
  7. Glad he got scooped up. What do you think that Pro contract is lookin’ like?
  8. I skied an entire summer on a S-Lines X Rope. It was unreal. Scott’s customer service was unreal…. Quality second to none. It’s awesome seeing S-Lines supporting events and skiers as well as event organizers selecting S as their tournament line. 🙌
  9. New new. It skis great. Radar Senate Pro 67”
  10. You can go to almost any dealer and order an optioned down boat. Options are the problem. For a lot of people a ski boat is a status symbol and luxury item. Nautique, Malibu and MC have positioned themselves to be very profitable in that marketplace. on the flip side of the coin…think basic white f250’s….. dealers order them optioned down and they always sell. It would be cool if there was an industry/club base model(tournament options only) boat. Centurion did not succeed because 1. It wasn’t a top three and 2. The marketing couldn’t compete. I know a lot of boat owners/skiers that want a new boat but the price is holding them back. I’m one of them. It’s unfortunate and I think a brand should capitalize on it. There are skiers out there that just want a great pull that meets all certified standards. Nautique should have done w the old 200 hull. Instead, they muddied the waters with an all new 200. I know this is all been talked about, but man I don’t understand why it can’t happen. If we are ever fortunate enough to have one of the big three do it for us… God, I hope people support it. I think it could be a great way for Malibu to increase their tournaments presence … Especially with how great people skied at the Malibu open. Let’s give that boat a chance and get people behind it! Where it’s priced right now… It will never be a player. Clubs, schools, tournament organizers and skiers will take the more tournament used option any day.

    There’s a big difference between a Senate graphite and a Senate pro. I’d highly recommend demoing one
  12. All it takes is one crash. Is that worth it? The wing of a ramp would cause serious injury or death. Especially with more 39’s and 41’s for ladies and 41/43 for men.
