    @usaski1 Just run 28 this weekend at Aquaplex. We’re full with a bunch of new faces so a good crowd to show off in front of. We have so many Canadians coming I think we may of mistakenly been sanctioned as their Nationals or something. By the way, even when you get to see Mark ski everyday at home it never becomes any less amazing.

    @Than_Bogan thanks for that. Was a last minute thing for me to sit in. Was fun to do. Always glad to help out. Hopefully, if they ask me again I can clean it up a bit. Was the first time I have done a webcast. We couldn’t see the broadcast or replay where we were sitting so positive I got it wrong plenty. Great event that took an enormous amount of work to pull off. Looking forward to next year already.

    Wow @aupatking sure looks good. Any questions feel free to send me a note. @JC McCavit @FWinter will get back to you I'm sure. He has been traveling and waiting on me to get back to the US. The last few limited editions are sitting on my @Skidoc workstation in Texas and I'm in the UK. He can blame me for delays. I fly home end of this week.

    Watched the webcast this morning for slalom. Sure looked like ridiculous conditions. I will say you don't often see Nate get crushed and blow the tail like he did on a massive roller, or top guys doing 28 off starts. If that's the stuff they were going for with this event they are succeeding. Not sure that's what I wanted to watch though.

    @BoneHead that was a cool week. Especially since back then you were still dating crazy chicks that helped create great stories for us when this website was small and just us bullshitting each day. Not sure we can mention most of that stuff anymore without risking a thumbs down event. @RazorRoss3 Trent and I just got the course back up. Was perfect and just needed to raise all the buoys. That's a first so we were really lucky. Glad to give you a pull on Friday and take some help. Your welcome to hang out as much as you like. Look forward to seeing everyone.

    Feeling bad for everyone East of us. We were really lucky at Aquaplex. All good! @TFIN and I about to start raising buoys for the tournament this weekend. Wind supposed to start dropping on Thursday and be nice.

    Regina. The only person with less reach than her is Marc Shaw :D ask him. Sorry @matthewbrown

    Guys, thanks for all the personal shoutouts I received rooting for @Superchicken The support she gets from the BOS group is unbelievable. Was a great event. She and Clem had a good battle. Hopefully next time will come out on top. Jolly Ski put on one of the best events we have been to and everything was 1st class. Will definitely be back to San Gervasio.

    Her video way more important than a fin block discussion. Let's just keep watching it cause she's awesome.

    @kelvin MAD custom fin block.

    @horton not sure I believe that.

    @brody @Superchicken is in the Bahamas celebrating graduation. She has been skiing great so sad to not be there, but this was planned by my sisters for over a year as a reward for being such a great student. She will be at San Gervasio next. Really proud how hard she has been training and the progress being made. Heading to ULL in the fall, which she is really excited about.

    @aupatking fin box is an MC, which has always looked similar to the Mapple but it has 6 mounting screws and theirs has 4. Bailey typically runs a custom MAD fin box to make her dad smile, but Boris set up this ski once and it hasn't been touched. Just ridden. Gotta love that.

    @skialex I usually don't comment much, but wanted to let you know you aren't correct about it being an XT. I do always enjoy reading this stuff though. You are correct that we modified a Goode Powershell to work with a Reflex release. She is on her 3rd season with that setup. It's never been a secret. Dave and Dawn gave her boots and have always been super supportive of Bailey no matter what stick she is riding. Were always grateful for the way they treat her. Do yourself a favor. Go ride an MC17. You will like it. Don't sell them short. You'll cost yourself bouys.

    @Moskier3ev We all know you and it's understood your rarely speaking on official authority. Similar to myself. See you soon.

    @bonehead I always went straight to the synthetic for break in on certain race cars. That way the nitro methane dumped in the oil would blow by the rings a better for that little extra boost. :smile: Not sure that was too legal, but clearly was a fun interpretation of the rules.

    We should call it the dual citizenship world championships. That team together is unbeatable! Jokes aside, which rarely happens with me, congrats to all of them. Great group of kids and just happy to see such a big participation level.

    @skidawg and I hear some new scotch that's supposed to be pretty darn good showed up at the house while I've been away. I get back in a few weeks. Maybe some pre Thanksgiving sets and a few cocktails?
  19. MAD11
    @horton Clearly! Dave said the same thing about me last week as you saw on insta.

    I have gotten about 30 texts giving me crap about my bad internet ruining the podcast. Just needed to reset the router, but didn't tell me there was a problem till the interview was over. Sorry guys.

    @Superchicken has a skidoc Orbit and it works great. It's either in the boat or throws it in her bag when she travels. We have used it with a cell phone, Gopro and a standard JVC video camera. Didn't seem to have an issue with any of those. The wakeye mounts I have been around seem to lack durability. We have had a few come apart, but that's using in a tournament. They may be just fine for occasional use.

    @thompjs think you mean at SMRR. Let's not get @Moskier3ev all worked up correcting you on this one giving the plex credit for a big score. Congrats to everyone down there. Sounded like a great event and sorry I missed it while flying back to a 3rd world destination again. Hey @Edbrazil whats your definition of awhile? I give her til spring and the old man's PB is going down.

    Anna is an awesome skier and person! Everyone in our house is super excited for her and really proud. Congrats to her, @Russell and the entire family. This was a team effort for sure. Can't wait to see her go over 11000 points!

    @teammalibu your comment makes me laugh. My brother worked in tool and die years ago for Lockheed Martin before they took all that stuff outside. He won't even pick up my digital calipers.

    I have problems with my slots in high humidity when we ski in Louisiana, Houston or Florida. I upgraded to Mitutoyo harsh environment calipers a few years ago and haven't had the issue. Try not to use the slots for anything but DFT anymore. Each set of them measures depth differently too it seems so they just confused the issue when communicating with others. I think I got them from Mcmaster Carr. Can possibly get a better deal somewhere else. http://www.mcmaster.com/#digital-calipers/=14g6gy6
