We are on a private ski lake in Iowa and leave our Shore Station lift in during the winter. Never had any issues. It does have a heavily braced VW dock on 3 sides. On a public lake in north Iowa, all lifts were pulled for winter to keep the ice floes from destroying them, but in the small habours & canals they were able to leave them in.

78 and light winds, great for mid September in Iowa.

Our old boat - 1993 Sport Nautique

@skigirl00, you might want to wait until you get on the collegiate team. A collegiate team uses our lake, they get really good deals from a couple ski manufacturers.

We always thought we would name a male dog Radar. Our female dogs have had snow ski names. Greeley - our favorite run at Alta Blizzard - my favorite skis and storm

@ScottScott, I used to use Spex then switched to the Oakleys. They have a padded frame, more like a snow ski goggle. https://www.bartswatersports.com/catalog/Sunglasses__Goggles/Spex_Sport_Goggles_-_Polarized/index.asp

@ScottScott, I did an abrupt face plant on a wakeboard while wearing Oakley Water Jackets, I have a broken blood vessel on my nose from the impact.

A big Congrats to Kennedy Hansen! She is in 1st place overall after prelims!

Haven’t yet, but I’m sure thinking about it!

1998 Sport Nautique, we had a1993 that was a great boat for everything, but the rooster tail was a bit hard at 15 off. A friend had a 1998 (tsc1 hull) that had a nice soft wake for slalom, load it up and it’s great for wakeboarding.

You can also move the fin forward to tighten the turn radius.

A big congrats to Kennedy Hansen! #1 overall, trick, & jump, #2 slalom after run off.

I’ll check with my husband, he currently has a pullover O’Neill. After fracturing his shoulder snow skiing last winter, he doesn’t have the range of motion to get in & out of the O’Neill.

Pull! Pull hard! All the way to the ball! Then start your turn.
