  1. @Skoot1123 - You mentioned “having your bindings as far back as they go.” What ski brand and size ski are you riding?
  2. @Carl, Good point, it all happens so fast at this age. Chad was. Ice enough to loan us a spare 66” 2016 Vapor to finish out the season. His Pro-Build is a 65”. If he skis well on the 66, I think I will know which way to go next spring.
  3. @Jbuc, You are just the creative inspiration I was looking for. When in doubt, saw it in half and make it into a bar.
  4. My son and I both had skis inside of a single SportTube. Inside of the SportTube, my ski was in a Goode soft ski bag with a FinFirkin, and his was in a ski sock without a FinFirkin. Bummer
  5. @KRoundy - I do not know for certain, but based on the timing of his offside falling apart, I’m speculating that it was our return flight from nationals.
  6. I assumed this would be the reaction. I will save it as a potential visitors ski, and a reason to ski shop this off season. Thanks for all the input.
  7. This is my 16yo sons Vapor Pro Build. His skiing became noticeably inconsistent after nationals and I had not looked at the ski until this morning.
  8. I longed to live on a private lake since they day I realized they existed. Because of your Dad, that dream began fifteen years ago for me, and still exists today. I will pray for comfort for you and your family.
  9. Can someone help me understand why we don’t use colored ropes anymore?
  10. America’s Cup - National Anthem
  11. @unksskis - student athlete type benefits might include anything a scholarship athlete might receive (food programs, access to gyms or trainers, or even partial scholarships).
  12. I have a 16 year old Boys 3 tournament skier who is evaluating colleges on both the value of the education, and the strength of the ski team. I am curious which schools provide the best experience for student athlete skiers? Or if any schools provide student athlete type benefits to high level collegiate skiers?
  13. What is the benefit of a single vs dual puck setup on a 2015 Prostar?
  14. @jedgell, I did ski in the previous fall, which could have been why I received the invitation. I intend to go this year but wanted to ensure I punched my ticket the right way. @JeffSurdej pm sent
  15. I took last season off from a tournament perspective, but I received a M4 Nationals qualification via e-mail yesterday? I looked on the USAWS website, but I was unable to find a good explanation. Can anyone fill me in on the qualifications change?
  16. @Chef23 - I will caviat that advice with the possibility of blowing a neck seal and filling that dry suit up from top to bottom with water. It does get quite heavy without a life jacket in that scenario
  17. Kelvin The link isn’t showing any photos currently...
  18. In an attempt to appeal to younger viewers, there is a proposal on the table to make the “sport” of breakdancing an official 2024 Olympic event. True story
  19. You appeared to have a small hitch at the finish of your offside turn on your stock fin. It disappeared after you changed fins
  20. I can’t comprehend 2-5 ball. None of it makes sense
  21. I had both of those boats give or take a year. The 197 was a better ski boat in my opinion. Better tracking, stronger motor, better wake with some chine spray at shorter lengths. But the 205 was a better recreational boat hands down (tubing, wake boarding, etc) due to a bigger slow speed wake
  22. I may be available if Kelvin isn’t for any reason. Let me know Daryn Dean Lakes of Katy
  23. Only $214k at the boat show! Affordable deal on a pontoon boat
