I think you will be surprised at the ride. I can tell you it is decent for someone getting up on (One) ski for the first time. It does not compare to the Radar Senate. I absolutely love the Senate and Vapor ski. Post that video of you running 28 off on the hovercraft! Btw Marcus is running 15 off, I do see at the end of video it appears as if he is at 28’ off Good luck!

I have been riding the 2022 Vapor all season! I have nothing but (Positive) things to say about it. Heel-side and toe-side turns symmetrical. Stable through the Wakes! I talked to Brooks about the 2023 layup which should be even better! I would say buy this slayer of a ski!!!

So I follow up on my last post. First off not giving any medical advice however I am an orthopedic PA. and specialize in shoulders, hips and knees. I have gone through two rotator cuff repair surgeries personally and the rehab is most of the battle. First and foremost partial high-grade rotator cuff tears have a significant risk of complete tears as I stated with retraction. There are plenty of studies out there to show that the efficacy of Cortisone injection may reduce the pain however it also put you in for the risk of weakening the rotator cuff tendon in completing the tear. As well as risk after surgery for re tear. My recommendation is to seek out a orthopedic surgeon that specializes in rotator cuff repair particularly arthroscopic. They also performs newer techniques for repairing the rotator cuff. Good luck! If you have any further questions I am happy to chime in anytime.

So just clarify…… 1. Recent RCT (rotator cuff tear) 2. Diagnosed high grade partial tear by MRI. 3. No surgery as of yet 4. Wanting to ski using power vest Any Glenohumeral joint arthritis? If not you should strongly consider having it repaired before it becomes a complete retracted tear with atrophy. Retracted atrophy = eventually needing a reverse total shoulder replacement.

@Zman previous versions did not seem to line up for the th 4 rear mounting holes. This seems to work well

New super shell is an 840 only in black

As a follow-up however I would ask if they use the standard reflex tow bar or the super-Shell Toebar?

I would change the elastic upper cinch to a static. I would NOT remove the rear flexion screw in the back for it to release properly. Put a shout-out out to Brooks

I heat more as per the directions from Brooks. Take a hair dryer put it on low at the Top of the liner while it is in the boot for 10 minutes. After that put a sock on and leave your foot in for 10 minutes with the desired tightness. At the same time do the other boot.

Denali makes their fins front foot specific.

Oh believe me I’ve tried many different boot systems LOL. I may be giving Horton a run for his money J/K

Strong work to Brooks, Matt, all involved!

First off sorry you have to go through surgery. I cannot only tell you as someone who had gone through rotator cuff repair surgery I am also a PA who specializes in orthopedic surgery. Couple of things to keep in mind usually there are two approaches to doing a rotator cuff repair. One totally arthroscopically and mini open repair. Typically if you have a bone spur present those will be shaved down and then repair of the rotator cuff tendon. If it is a full thickness tear typically you will require suture anchors to place that tendon back in the position on to the Proximal humerus. There are a lot of factors how many rotator cuff tendons are torn? Remember there are a total of four rotator cuff tendons in the shoulder. The most commonly torn tendon is the supraspinatus which allows for forward flexion and lateral elevation. Depending on your surgeons approach to recovery you are typically in a sling from 4 to 6 weeks with passive range of motion only during that period of time. Then active assist to active range of motion proceeds with formal physical therapy. Followed by strengthening. I can tell you from personal experience I had a rotator cuff repair done three years ago towards the end of October and I was back on the water by mid April. As far as stem cells go there’s no significant literature that it will speed recovery. However regeneten grafting is an option for retracted rotator cuff tears. For which we use in our practice. https://www.smith-nephew.com/professional/products/all-products/regeneten-/ (please note the above content is not as medical advice it is merely editorial) Good luck! And a speedy recovery. Brian
