  1. That sucks! Still ice!? I guess I should quit complaining about our crappy spring in Kansas! Hang in there, spring will get up there eventually! I Sure wasn't trying to rub it in! I was just pumped to finally get a deccect April day! I had to tell sombody. Lol. Hope your ice is gone soon!!
  2. Not me yet! Lake thawed out early this week, then the snow and 10° weather came back. She froze back over the last few days. Might thaw some tonigh/tomorrow, then supposed to be back in the 50-60 next week!?. You lucky suckers, lay a big one for this ol cold Kansas boy!
  3. The vapor is the ski I got but they offer some more stable slower skies 29-32 mph. The senant seires sounds like a fun ski for some one like her. I've never skied one, but I'm sure some of the great insiders on this forum would probably have a opion. That's why I love this page! Average ski bum like me can ask questions and listen to advice from the best in the industry!
  4. I'm not nearly the skier most of the guys and girls on this forum are!! But I, like your wife really enjoy open sking and just laying the biggest turns and sprays I can at high rate of speed! I do ski the balls and love it! but try not to get completely caught up in it, because I have wife and kids that board and ski so we make it a family activity. But back to your wifes ski. Id been riding a double high wrap 1994 kidder redline comp that was top of the line at the time. I been riding it since I was 14, just because I had so much confidence in it I never gave anything else a chance! But I got a new radar last fall with double binding set up. And holy crap! After a few days to get used to the speed and handling in has, I was sking like I was 21 again with half the effort!!! Get her a new ski! The new technology is unbelievable!!
  5. Our lake tawed out thursday! Going to be 65 here in Kansas Tue! I got the ol outboard ready for a rip, with a little luck! I don't want to get my prostar out yet, and have to rewinterze it. I can blow my 200 out on the dock and call it good! Fingers crossed I'll get my first set in for the year the with my off course set uo! "Lay some spray ballers!"
  6. Thanks guys! And yes A_B, I am defiantly extending this trip for a extra week to get back to the middle of the state, where they don't look at you cross eyed when you ask about a ski pit! I just took the kids down here to the beach to get out of Kansas for a bit. Not nesicery a ski trip, but I brought my stick, hopeing to find a tug somewhere along the way. If anybody has a line on a boat and driver, hit me up! Thanks Ipskier, I'll try and get ahold of jody.
  7. I did reach out to Cory he must be closed, I didn't hear back. But thanks for the info I will defiantly keep it! That Google ski app is going to be handy!
  8. Thank you very much MISkier. I'll check to see if they are indeed closed. And I'll look into that Google ski app! Sounds handy! Thanks for the response. Lay some spray my friend.
  9. Im in unfamiliar territory also. Anybody know where there is a ski pit around Destine Florida? I got a line on a coupe places in the middle of the state for next week. But not finding anything around here. I don't have my boat with me.
  10. Sounds like everbody has a fun productive winter planned! Like to rear of you I will be working on the boat and counting the days! We just pulled into Florida from Kansas late last night. Hope to spend a couple weeks here and get some sets in. Happy New Year Ballers!
  11. Your probably going to wash on the money either way. But if you love the way the boat skies, and you know everthing about the boat, that's hard to put a price on that! I think I would fix it and have it ready to ski by March of it was me. I sold a 86 supra when I was a kid, to get the "bigger better ski boat".. I often look back and wish I still had it for a second biat. Don't sell the boat!.
  12. Nice ride dude! And yes that's a sweet storage setup! I wrestle that crap around by myself also. It's a pain in the butt!! Nice work brotha.
  13. They are small and super low in the water for big lakes. Im on a private ski pit. Perfect boat for that! I riding a prostar 205 rite now, but I not going to lie! I would love to have that ol comp back!! It was a sweet ride! Handle the course like a champ!!
  14. Wind blew like crazy here in Kansas today. I got the wet suits and coolers ready for hot water ready for tomorrow. The wind is supposed to lay and hit mid 60°s tomorrow afternoon. I just hope my driver comes through! Funny how all you ski buddy's quit showing up when the time and weather change!! Lmao!! I have a 13 yro son that can drive in a pinch. But our lake is super short and tuff driving. Ball 6 and then your ass better be turning the boat! Dam coming quick!!!
