my position on PP vs. ZO is i prefer ZO. that being said i don't know why other than i ski better behind ZO. boats. you all seem much more knowledgable than me an di have a question. at what point does the boat make up the time if the skier pulling is the reason the apeed control system would ever be going less than 34.2 MPH? the only itme i hear a ZO boat surging with higher RPM is when the skier is behind the boat. if it knows it is going slow would it not stop the RPM surge until it has made up the time. this would potentially have the boat slowing when the skier is turning. not an ideal time, leads to slack in the line. what does everyone think of the idea of the boat speeding up as the skier is not loading the line?

in power lifting there are classes that wear denim shirts that allow lifting heavier weights. there are classes that disallow the shirts and the weights are always less. the record for each class is hundreds of pounds apart. if the point of a head to head includes testing the endurance of the athlete and people who normally can only run 6 to 8 passes can run 20 make a separate class or disallow.

bud man, right on. i was holding my tongue to object to all the pulling to different spots people were talking about. center of the wake and thats it! it takes time to edge change and get shifted more on top of the ski. if you are pulling off the second wake instead of getting pulled forward and getting ready to reach you will b going too fast to turn. good luck

i feel if you do not have a reference to pull out for and turn in for the gate you will never reproduce your start. it needs to be in relation to the buoys and the boat. where these points are is up to the line length and your style. i know of a guy who once missed the gate at regionals because he was timing his pull out in practice by a canoe on shore. they moved the canoe over night and while waiting for it he skied well past any point he was able to make a gate. my advice, pull out when the ski platform passes the pre gate, go to the width of 2 4 6 and look back at the front of the boat. for -15 go when the platform is at the gate, -22 gate between engine box and back of boat, -28 at engine box, -32 at windshield, -35 nose of boat, -38 nose but width is two feet inside line of 2 4 6.

true. and a boot but they did discount that to $175

lets hope Goode is changing their policies but i have never had them warranty anything. the first wide ride i purchased is the delaminated ski apparently caused by donning it on a bare platform. they fixed it by patching in epoxy and repainting it at my shipping expense both ways. i proceeded to break the power shell 5 binding plate, the binding heel plate, and on three occasions the flat square nuts holding the boots to the bindings plates bent or broke at minimum two at a time. none of this was replaced or even discounted even with the extra warranty on the ski. i ski like crap on other skis and have purchased another wide ride and will try a mid as soon as our water warms up but, mary being nice is the only good thing i can say about their customer service. on the topic of this thread i think the mid will soften the hard snap you have with the stiffer flex wide ride at the finish of the turn past the buoy. the wide ride is great for scrappers in the course but can bite you when the scrapper has time to get on the front of the ski in the pre turn. if you have ridden the wide ride and like the stability in and thru the turn but have stalled it coming out i think the mid will work very well. i cant wait to try one.
