  1. Sorry folks- It's been a few years since I've been on this site. Yes I can confirm the site just off I-69 south of IN 28 is Sunset Ski Lake where I ski. As @WoodySkier mentions it's a short setup but we tapped the expertise of some gentlemen who used to ski at Wet Set and we've made some positive changes to the site!
  2. I have a Weber Genesis, Weber smoky mountain, charcoal weber, and a Green Mountain Grills wifi pellet smoker/grill. I love my Webers but I use the pellet smoker for almost everything. Check out the pizza oven attachment for the green mountain grill- it's awesome. https://greenmountaingrills.com/products/new-parts/accessories/wood-fired-pizza-attachment/
  3. Boondocks is a bit south of Frankfort and would be pretty close to him in Zionsville. I’ve skied at Silent Shores as well- fantastic. I know a guy who had a submersible course on Morse lake but the lake turns into such a crap show shortly after dawn so he also had a membership up at Kokomo. Pics to help you locate Boondocks
  4. In addition to the rules/by laws when I bought my lot I wanted to get a feel for the mechanics of controlling the water level- a good water source and controlled outlet to ensure droughts and floods wouldn't interfere with the ski season.
  5. Titan XD 5.0 Cummins- enough truck for a bubble back Nautique
  6. I'm not a member of indyskiers but I follow them on facebook- it looks like the river has calmed down and they have their course in! That would be super convenient to downtown.
  7. What side of Indy are you on? Have you checked out indyskiers?
  8. drop- unless the water is colder than mid 50s then I'll spin at 1 end and deal with the rollers
  9. fun times these "why don't more people ski tournaments" threads are. @wish and @ScarletArrow have some good thoughts regarding us -15/-22 guys. In my area there's a lot of us- tearing it up at 32 mph and pulling the kids through the mini-course several times a week. here's my metrics How many set/week do you ski, both practice and tournament if you ski tournaments? 5-10 How far away is the nearest tournament to you, whether on not you ski tournaments? 1hour Do you ski tournaments? no Do you have school aged kids? yes- 3
  10. @PurdueSkier I didn't realize how high the water is at your res. Hit me up if you or anyone in your crew wants to come ski at my place.
  11. one thing that is worse than skiing in the wind is not skiing
  12. as long as skiing in the wind is more fun than not skiing then I'll ski
  13. Bump for this thread. Just got back from the derm for my yearly skin check. I always do mine at the end of the season to give me extra incentive to be great with the sun block.
  14. Never point a gun at anything you're not willing to destroy- was he really willing to destroy some 15 and 16 year-old kids over having his boat rocked? It could have been a teachable moment with a younger generation about respecting others but instead he pulls out a S&W .357 revolver.
  15. It's been a while since I've heard Robert Marking mentioned- he always had a way of getting the water stirred and at least got people talking/debating. I wonder what happened to @skiing2heaven
