Interesting that there isn't more discussion about the Works 02 skis especially with the success of Jamie Bull and Rob Hazelwood on the 02. I'm a loyal HO skier on the 2022 HO Pro and loving it but motivated to try the Works 02. Is there anyone out there that has skied the HO Pro and tried the 02 and what are your thoughts?

As much as I would love to watch, I gave up trying. Now I just go directly to the resulst and then here to hopefully get some commentary. They could do so much better for what is such a prestigious event. They make TL and TWBC look like the gold standard of broadcasting

from one perspective I find it nearly impossible to watch the masters due to the low quality of its broadcast and announcers. I only look at the results from following skiers I personally know skiing and understand how important the event is to them. Otherwise I wouldn't even pay attention to the event. It's like Moomba; impossible to watch

So many things wrong with the Moomba broadcast. I gave up trying to watch, it was so bad. Don't want criticize too much, but how on earth will it improve unless we give constructive criticism. Perhaps some of the problem stems with the Australian government and how they shut down the entire country during covid and it's now they are playing catchup. Some of their regulations are ridiculous such as those silly life vest they're wearing on the dock

When is the last time we had a new ski actually tested and reviewed??? Would love to see an HO Works 1 or 2 reviewed but it sounds like horton can't get it done 😞

I feel pretty good about Winter. Despite changing skis the last few years, I think he's really settled in with D3. Overall he has tempered his style/smoothed out his style. If he can avoid injury, I think he could in contention to win at each event

The Works are definitely interesting!! When will someone do a review on them?

The 2022 Pro makes such sharp turns and keeps me on top of the water. I'm going go ahead and get that ski for now but appreciate the feedback from both of you on the 2 Works skis. Both look like promising options

I feel Dave Wingerter does a good job of explaining the differences of the new 2023 skis as it is a crowed lineup with many "flavors of ice cream" as he describes. Curious if anyone out there has tried the new Works 1 or 2 yet. I have the Omega now, tried a 2022 Pro and like it better but interested if anyone has feedback to share

I can help out too. I live at Pickos and have part ownership on Lake 3 and always welcome new skier as long as you can drive the slalom course. October thru May. Come on down

yeah!!! Get Rob Hazelwood in there and tony L out. It would be a nice change. But Rob does have to ski. Tony doesn't. Also enjoy Zane and Marcus but not tony

going back to very first post of this thread, I found the question being asked if tournament participation is down due to the Safesport requirement.... At our regionals a friend of mine took first place!!! But there were only 2 people skiing in their age group. Only 2!!!

Here are the slalom finals. Nice little break from T Lightfoot

All this drama over what? ski ropes? and because @BigSpray gave an opinion/review on the new rope company which happens to be Russell Gay's son. and through this thread ML is getting demonized as well as @BigSpray and called illegitimate? It's been fun to sit back and see all of this drama amongst fellow waterskiers :) why can't we all get along - funny how quick we all are to pull the Scott Chipman card on @BigSpray LMAO

my question is why take the chance of malfunctioning and having an injury from at pre-release? It ain't worth it
