Panda, sly grin or not. Sure it can be measured, but no device I've seen is currently compatible. They will require mods.
Oh, and I thought @Horton was the only one who bestowed Pandas.
Having experienced some injuries that caused me to regress, my plan is to ski more with the goal of getting back to where I was 2 years ago. Ambitious, but doable I think.
Congrats! I've enjoyed BOS for many years. Don't know exactly when I joined. I tried to look it up on my profile and it says 1901. Don't think that's correct, LOL!
Recently had both eyes done. Obviously no mention if skiing, but explicitly said "no weightlifting for 4 weeks". Not skiing season for me, but if if it were I would ski after the 4 weeks. Strain and increased blood pressure and eye pressure are the reasons. Looking forward to ski season, as I was having a hard time seeing buoys in low light/contrast conditions.
I understand the loss of stretch due to age. I also think it's much less critical at 15 off. There's so much more rope to stretch. Even with a relatively new rope I can easily feel the difference between 28 and 35, from Deepwater start on.
If you convert to single puck it should be just plug and play under the dash. Of course, you'll have a software update, so not totally plug and play.
What I'm saying us that the wiring shouldn't be different just because of Linc.
The chart posted by @Hockdog which was originally published by @scoke (I think) may not be perfectly scaled, but it accurately depicts what happens. If it were perfect each arc would occupy the exact same area, just shaped differently. This is required in order to achieve the set speed. What @Mastercrafter said has to be correct. If there is more area in the arc there is more speed. If not, I'd be truly surprised.
Prices are pretty much based on how badly someone wants to sell more so than how badly someone wants to buy. I have an '08 196 with less than 700 hours, really well kept and serves me quite sufficiently. If someone came along and offered me 50k I'd turn him down. What else could I get for 50k that would suit as well?
I would say if using the word "where" it means where the skier is in relation to cross course, not down. Then it kinda means the same as "when". (If that ain't confusing enough)
