I would love to see video of Wim Decree in 1/4 speed.

Awesome video. Horton, what was the second song?

I'll be there with the Crimson Tide!!

Didn't Mapple run a few at 43 in a class C at Trophy a few years back?

Boys 3: 1st: Strada 2nd: 9800 3rd: Nano 4th: X7 5th: Razor

I just tried 36/15 for the first time a few weeks ago. When I aged out of Boys 2 and had to speed up to 36 I went straight to 36/22. 36/15 is a very difficult pass. There is a lot of speed combined with a lot of rope to deal with. This may sound weird but I would try to run all of your passes at 22 off. Start your set at 22 and see what happens. You may find 36/22 to be easier than 36/15.

Check out the Peace, Love & Waterskiing Training Center. It's located in Central VA, about an hour from Richmond. Head coach is pro skier Corey Humburg. www.peaceloveandwaterskiing.com

I agree with londonskier. I have been on a Reflex front and a rear toe plate for the past few seasons. I honestly don't think there is a safer set up. The Reflex has released every time I thought it should and have never had a problem with pre-release. I have seen too many people get hurt when the velcro is not set up just right. And it tends to always happen off the second wake... a very nasty fall. Good Luck! Paul

Yeah exactly. Holding onto the handle as long as possible.

Just took my 5th set on the razor. Last night I set the fin to stock "shortline" settings and the ski came alive today. It turned both sides of the course perfectly. One thing I did notice was that I really had to carry out into 246 (my onside) or I would tend to ski straight at the bouy. But even if it did feel like I was skiing straight at the bouy I could turn on a dime and be back in the pass. Not something I want to make a habit out of, but will be great if I need it. There were many times that I would have been swimming if I was on my A1.

Horton- My toe side feels like I am getting very far down course before I can get the ski traveling back across the course. But like Razorskier1 said, it feels like 2,4,6 is bouncing off of a wall--it's unreal. But it is the beginning of the season and I think that once I start skiing wider and more efficient it should come back together. I can't wait to ski it again. What settings are you guys using? Horton, you said you haven't touched them-- so stock?

Forgot to mention... I'm a righty and skiing on the 66A at 36mph

I tried a friend's razor for one set at the end of last season. Absolutely loved the ski! I ran some of the smoothest, easiest 35s ever. So I purchased one over the winter and after staring at it in the cold, I made my way down to Orlando this week. I have three sets on the new ski and parts of it are incredible but some things need work. It certainly doesn't feel like it did last season. I'm finding it very difficult to turn 1,3,5 and I'm getting pretty far down course. But I can ski all the way to 2,4,6 and turn like what feels like 90*. This ski is fast. And from what I can tell extremely stable. I ended up shortening the fin quite a bit after the last set and we'll see how it goes tomorrow. This ski has potential.

This is somewhat off topic but I wanted some quick advice... A very good friend of mine just tore her ACL, MCL, and meniscus as well as fractured her tibia, fibia, and femur playing soccer. She is young (18) so hopefully the healing process will go fairly smoothly. I know skiers are familiar with ligament injuries, how long before she will be able to run again? She was planning on playing soccer in college in the fall...
