  1. Thanks @rockdog ! Been using the same adjustement for the last 2.5 seasons and it always release fine before. Tested it on the dock for the initial adjustement,it's just a bit higher then 3. I think it's more a combination of falling in a weird manner and bad luck...
  2. Sorry to read this. Hope she get well soon!
  3. Funny. Trying to run the blue loop will result in a blue foot... :)

    TriStar 220

    Run away from the Tristars!
  5. Thanks everyone for the kind words! Just back from the hospital,95% tear,surgery next thursday. Front foot ,RFF, reflex 750 and RTP. I'd like to explain it better but it happened so fast.Was almost horizontal when i fell as i was stretch to the max right at the ball.I know the Reflex released but after the hit on my Achille.I knew right away that's where i was hurt from reading about it on BOS. I'll take everyones advices for rehab.The Dr was talking about some kind of ''hardshell'' :) that they can progressively adjust the angle of foot...We'll see. Gonna be able to watch the Olympics... Not able to ski until next May is killing me.Might have to fly south this winter!!! Thanks guys!
  6. Nate,Freddie and...me! Tore my Achille throwing the ski around 2 @35 off. Was late and my stupid brain decided to go for it even if i wasn t going anywhere after 2. All i could have done is stand up and take the hit...Stupid move. Going to hospital this p.m. for a scan to see the extend of the damage. Season is over for me. Be safe outhere and remember kids:there is no 100%safe bindings!
  7. @Alberto Soares Not a Correct Craft Paragon ? Who makes that boat?
  8. I see nothing wrong in putting your older KDs on...but you should ski more often!!! :)
  9. Nice skiing,congrats! I remember when @Chef23 posted the same thing couples of years ago. Did you ran it again since with your injuries ?
  10. Did you get up with only one hand on the handle ? That pix should be frame and on your living room wall!!! Nice!
  11. All of you guys in their fifties (52 here) and running deep 38 are giving me hope to run my first ever 35 off... 9 years since my first 32 off and still stuck at 4.5 @35... :( Still hoping to PB soon...
  12. Get a modern ski as soon as you can afford it and thank me later! ;) World of difference,,,
  13. @ski6jones I get your point. But a moored sailboat in Fla. intracoastal means it's probably use in the open sea,where it will be shake by way bigger waves then a wakeboat... Anyway,like @acmx said,Claudio got bigger problem on his ear! :)
  14. You are also responsible to have your boat tied and protect from dock and waves correctly...
  15. I remember a video from Andy running that kind of course in Acapulco... I'll try to find it.
  16. Had problems recently with 6.5 ,Digital Pro ,one line display. Aaron at Perfect Pass had me disconnect the paddle wheel saying that with older systems like mine when the paddle wheel goes bad ,it affect the master module... It worked on mine. Good luck!
  17. All Kidder,KD, D3 skis i had were all very user friendly out of the box. I thought about going for the ARC but bought a Vapor because of the hype on BOS. See John,your site does influence ski sales...
  18. http://www.mokanskiclub.com/ Did you try this site ?
  19. @Than_Bogan Lifelong kicker user here. Always hated how the rubber loop was too far forward. For the last 10 years i have drilled extra holes in the mounting plate and move back the rubber loop so it fit more toward the ankle/middle of the foot giving me a more solid grip on the ski. I can still safely release from it in a fall but i like the solid connection to the ski it give me... Good luck!
  20. Let me be the first to say: WTF ???
  21. I'm in ! Got it just in time for my birthday today (thanks skidawg!) and skied right up to my average ,1.5@35,with out of the box setting. Feel that the ski is faster cross course and way less work that my old Strada wich is 800 sets old. Feeling some good things coming up!
