  1. Wrap in TO = 200, Reverse TWBB = 330, BFLP = 500. Yes, there are problems with the beginning trick point values and they should be addressed with appropriate changes to the point table when the flip point values are looked at.
  2. Loosen the other five screws to see if you can start the sixth.
  3. @Horton From the Nationals website: ( https://www.usawaterski.org/goode-water-ski-national-championships ) ****Nationals Skiers Urgent Message: Change In Schedule For Friday**** We have had to alter the schedule for Friday, Aug. 11, 2023.

  4. @Sethro I haven’t used either the app or the spreadsheet - but WBB requires that you be in a back to start the trick, so maybe the trick you entered before did not leave you in a back and the app wouldn’t allow WBB.
  5. @Horton - lpskier knows a lot more than I do, I just found the web information, my son generally didn’t practice at Nationals because of heat and time, when he did practice it was trick and there was always his preferred boat on the trick lake but wait times were challenging.
  6. @Horton - In case you haven't seen this from the Nationals webpage: The Practice Lake opens Monday, Aug. 7 at 10 a.m., and starting Tuesday through Friday at 7:30 a.m. Practice will end 30 minutes before sunset each day. Lakes other than the designated Practice Lake will be open Monday through Friday per the Chief Tech/Judge approval and depending on boat availability. Competition Lakes will be open 30 minutes after completion of that day’s skiing. NO congregating around dock until completion of skiing please. Slalom – 4 Passes, $40.00 Tricks – 2 Passes, $40.00 Jump – 3 Jumps, $40.00 You must register at the Clubhouse starting 8:30 a.m. Monday, and Tuesday through Friday at 7:00 a.m. NO refunds given on unused tickets. Releases will be signed at the practice lake before you can participate. YOU MUST GO TO CLUBHOUSE TICKET WINDOW FIRST!
  7. Same symptoms on my 196 - greasing the rudder solved it.
  8. Some of the later 06s were pretty easy to change over to ZO, if you call CC with the hull number they will let you know.
  9. @2Valve 2007 Multi-port, parts manual shows a RA117011 Ignition Coil/Module assembly
  10. My boat was running rough and not getting to speed so I did a complete service - cap (mounting ear on distributor cracked so I added a repair plate), rotor, plugs, wires, fuel filters, oil change, new impeller. It still ran rough and did didn't get to top speed. Changed low pressure fuel pump and changed the cap again. Now I'm getting to top speed but have an occasional miss at 25 and 27 MPH -- all other speeds seem smooth. Any ideas? @Jody_Seal
  11. Anyone skiing after knee replacement surgery
  12. Sea Ray Ski Ray SK190 was AWSA approved in 1991 - don’t know if it was actually used in R&L level tournaments, read that Ricky McCormick was involved with Sea Ray so he might know.

    I/o for skiing

    Having the propeller up underneath the hull is a benefit of the DD especially if you have smaller children - my boys were afraid of the prop on the outboard we started with and that fear went away with the DD. Also it is easier to get the kids ready with the large swim step.
  14. @HortonI like all three hull colors being Sangria flake
  15. If your dates are flexible I would try to coordinate with a JD week at one of the schools.
  16. I found it best not to change equipment after my THR (and back surgeries) - but I waited a year after my THR on the advice of my PT - and had no issues.
  17. Got up for the first time on combos there about 60 years ago. Remember having fun there as a kid.
  18. Yep - slow start. Thought that helps me the most is “keep the ski in front of you.”
  19. A SSN is NOT required for a criminal background check. With $19.95 (22.95 for International) and a name and address you can get: Nationwide Criminal; Bankruptcies, Liens, and Judgement; U.S. Sex Offender; FBI/Marshals list; and, Terrorist Search/OFAC [applycheck.com]. Add $20 to the annual renewal cost and consent for criminal background check to the membership/renewal application and run everybody.
  20. Well it looks like Canada isn't a safe harbor from Safe Sport training . . .

  21. My mechanic had to go to the PCM rep to get the file. Can the dealer get you a copy of the file?
  22. In 2020 USOPC membership was a direct benefit to six athletes. See attached file.
  23. @The_MS that has to be about the most upsetting statement I have ever seen. My son has been watching the unvaccinated die in the understaffed Fort Walton Beach ICU for months. Many times more than one a shift. And, you make a political statement/Joke about it. We don't need more COVID patients in Florida.
