  1. Go up 1 size above your street shoe size
  2. I use glasses made by Silverfish. Check them out. I was a game changer for me.
  3. Silver Fish. I’m wearing them in my profile pic. They are a major game changer ?
  4. Mine is in my profile pic. 2018 HO VTX 67”
  5. At least 5x a week. Once skiing begins I will cut it to 3x a week. At 62yrs old, diet and rest is very important.
  6. I’m 62 and ski an 18 VTX with double Animals. Works for me
  7. Growing up I skied behind outboards, and stern drives. We would literally catch air on the wakes. At 22 off there is a bump, but nothing compared to what I was used to. To me the boat was a huge improvement and everything about it was so much better. Now I own a pristine 98 196CB...It took me a bit to get used to what I call the dip or trough. A 3 blade prop did produce a softer wake than a 4 blade.
  8. I bought a new 02 Outback LS and owned it for 13 trouble free years. Great boat
  9. I went with a company called SilverFish. Being able to see has made a huge difference in my ability.
  10. Remove all dairy, wheat, and sugar from your diet an you’ll lose the fat. Compound lifts that utilize large muscle groups will be your best friend. Dr. said no more running, so I bike and jump on the trampoline with my daughter for some cardio. I’m going on 62 and very strong, but no matter how much I think I’m in shape..... the first runs of the year always humble me. Most importantly, have fun!
  11. I have great success with a Keto type diet. No bread or sugar. I have never had a low blood sugar episode while on it.
  12. I went with glasses from Silverfish. Great company
  13. size 10 with plates. used only 2 runs.... I am sticking with my animals. $500 obo
  14. You can find factory settings on HO’s website
  15. Have you ever had your Testosterone levels tested?
  16. I am 5'9'', 162lbs and ski at 34-36mph. water temp is 58-70 degrees. I am looking into an A3 and wondered what you all recommend for ski length. 66 or 65? Trading my 67'' VTX.
  17. That pic takes me back in time when I would go to the lake with my slalom ski in hand looking for anyone and anything that would pull me.
  18. About 15yrs ago I was in Avon Park, FL on business setting up some equipment for a client. His place was on a small lake and he had a pontoon boat that was about 6’ from the water due to drought. Me being the engineer I got it jacked up on some heavy wall pvc pipe and got it to roll back into the lake. There I was staring at this huge gray snake that was under the boat and about 3’ away from me. As I was leaning over trying to get a better look at it while asking “hey! What kind of snake is this?” the client pushed me out of the way and beat the hell out of it. For the rest of the week everyone teased me about being the “snake identifier” from Oregon.
  19. Nobody! Ok, here’s the deal... way back in 2002 I was skiing in Orlando and this new HO Truth ski came out and was supposed to be the chit. I ordered one and did ok with it only to find out later what a pos it was. I’m just trying not to make the same mistake. I recently ordered a new 15 V series in 67” for $439 through Amazon. The company didn’t have that anymore and eventually sent me a brand new 18 VTX for the same price.
  20. Hi, is anyone out there skiing on the 18 VTX?
