Last year I bet a kid that skis with us, and routinely gets into 38, $100 if he could run 36 long line off the dock. He has yet to attempt it.

I have a red 63” and an orange 67” in my vintage collection. Used the 67 for about 2 years back in the day. Main thing I remember is the tail blowing out a lot. Kris should definitely use these graphics on his new skis.

So, if they quit making ski boats, will there be a Malibu Open this year?

Seems like the handle would twist towards the boat if you let go with one hand under a load, i.e. straightening your shorts after you get up. Might make getting up interesting.

...when you suffer through another round of "Safe Sport". This year I had to do the whole thing from the beginning. Another hour and a half of my life wasted!

You never really know what is going to jump out and bite you. Two years ago my rope broke which resulted in my ribs separating from my sternum. I now change my ropes every year. Last May, I completely tore my rotator cuff and a couple of other tendons tricking(of all things). I was working out on Tonal, 4 days a week, and skiing the other 3 days. I was probably in the best shape of my life. Sure, you can try to minimize your chance for injury, but you never know what freak thing might be lurking. I thought about not tricking anymore, but I need that necessary evil for overall.

It is definitely winter!

As @lpskierstated, Auburn skis at Divorce Lake. The lake is about 25 minutes from the school. The team has a 2013 Mastercraft and are working on getting another boat. Divorce Lake has a jump and surveyed course. Auburn is Div. 2, and they typically have a spring and a fall tournament at the lake.

That is the stop on the Maha adjustable binding. The heel stayed in place, and the front of the binding moved. This kept the binding from coming all the way out.

The "powers that be" told me you have to take the full course every 3 years.

Yeah, took me awhile to stop it at the right time. My bad.

Where is the right hand ball? Maybe I'm just blind, but her gate looks super early and I have yet to detect the other gate ball.

Ah, I was hoping it was the C-95

@HortonAnd??

@HortonIs it tomorrow, yet?

When can I order one?

Go to this site, click on live scoring and find a tournament with a red V beside the name. These tournaments have trick videos you can watch and practice calling. https://waterskiresults.com/WfwWeb/wfwShowTourList.php

Or if you have the Adams build your C85 with C75 graphics so your wife won't know. She still doesn't.

Both of mine have Mr. M bindings.

I have 2 of those, 1 orange 67" and a red 63". A couple of my friends from "back in the day" have Simpson LaPoints. I think KLP sold out to Simpson Safety Equipment. The original, before it was a LaPoint, was made by Hexcel.

Back in the late '70's there was a guy on our lake with a Checkmate I/O that rode by my house pulling 8 skiers. He blew the horn and waved. We accepted the challenge. We rode around the lake collecting people, skis and ropes. We didn't even know some of these folks. We'd ride up to a dock and ask if they had a pair of skis and a rope. If so, we'd draft them. We pulled up 13 people(all adults) behind a 1978 Mastercraft with 4 people in the boat. It was a struggle, but we all got up. The guy in the Checkmate stopped in the middle of the lake and just watched. He never came back to our lake again.
