Skied it - liked it - probably will keep it....  I pasted ski log below. JH - is it possible that the year on the 2.0 got you dialed for the follow on year on the SS? One question - I set ski up identical to 1.0 (w/in .001-.002" on all numbers), but the ski tip label says 67" !! Standing the skis up side by side, it is .5" shorter. Everything on internet including Obrien site lists only 67.5"....  what gives? %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% First pass on new demo Sixam 2.0.  I’m looking for more forgiving ski for my current level of skiing.  Setup ski w/ identical numbers to Sixam 1.0, but I need to figure out if this is correct. The ski is labeled 67†not 67.5â€Â, and side by side, the 2.0 looks .5†shorter. Couldn’t find numbers or info on 67†2.0, so went ahead and skied…  >> First set – first pass was pretty good. Skied at 33mph to take a little edge off and give my brain a little extra time in pass. Ski feels much more solid in turns, but does turn hard at top of turn. Arcing out to buoy seems more stable and slower turning – maybe this is slower roll that some people talk about – but then at the ball it turns fast and comes back under me really nice.  If I get back on the tail, the tail feels hard/solid – maybe less slide than on 1.0???  This seems to make it easier to get back forward on ski w/o wheelying or falling out the back – do not go so far down course waiting for tip to reengage and gives you a chance to make up for error. Ski feels slower over all, but if you finish turn in good position it gets across wake fast. Think slow feeling may be more from slower roll.  Looking at video, I was not staying open finishing turns – reaching back for handle early. This stops turn for and ski goes down course for a few feet while I continue to fall in towards wake and back from boat. Ski eventually starts turning again and finishes well, but I have to work to get it back forward and have more lean & load than I need. I think this ski will be really nice when I get the open finish going again.   >> Second set on Sixam 2.0. No changes to settings. Stayed open more and kept hips ahead of shoulders 90% of pass. Still could get hips/knees forward more coming into buoy. Ski is nice, feels more stable and smooth. The 1.0 certainly feels faster, but pretty sure this is roll-rate of ski and not necessarily acceleration and speed across wake. If I stay open and let ski finish and have hips ahead of shoulders, I am very early & wide for next buoy and feel like I could shorten up. This is same for 1.0, but I think stability (from slower roll?) will make it easier for me to work on body position. Maybe after some time getting better form (and hopefully shortening the line), I will like the 1.0 better…
