@Cooper_Trelawney Brittany Greenwood slaloms LFF and tricks RFF. Mariah Fields slaloms RFF and tricks LFF. I'm sure there are a few others.

My ProStar 190 Limited was built in December of 1992, so it was one of the first boats with the Corvette LT1. If you look on the inside you can see where the motorbox was cut in half and stretched to accommodate the LT1.

Likely somewhere in that 27.5" - 28" range.

This was my boat. Sold it for substantially less in January of 2016.

@RAWSki In a lot of ways we focused on performance and standardization. Kevco was spot on in his podcast echoing what I have been proposing for years. Pro skiing is entertainment. Period. Just like college football. Until we (organizers) accept that and start to tailor the product in a manner that increases the spectator appeal which creates more value for sponsors, I don't see much changing. The problems that we are facing with professional skiing are not unique to our sport. Major programs in college football are struggling to fill the stadium on a weekly basis. No doubt the increased production quality of broadcasts have had an effect on attendance, but our lives are also much more complex these days. There are so many other things we could be doing that the time investment required to attend events in person is less and less palatable. There are ongoing efforts to figure out what drives people to attend these football games in person, and how they can improve the in-stadium experience to help with attendance. We used to go out of way to create atmosphere at events: beer trucks, vendor tents, music on site, etc. and often made concessions to try and increase spectator appeal: four buoy courses, head to head formats (even tried in W jump at one point), announced line lengths in "feet on," freestyle jump... Now its more like a golf tournament with death by slalom.

Provis looks more shiny, less dull than the orange but with slightly more red in it.

@MISkier

When you decide to jeopardize your entire career and reputation by crafting an elaborate system to decrease the width of the turn buoys in order to win and set records.

Sometimes you have to take the T-bar to get to the most fun terrain

Per Jason on Faceplace: "I’m working on the details of producing them now. My focus to this point has been on getting it approved for tournament use."

I saw that and was wondering what was going on there. Did some surface digging and wasn't able to find anything.

@wski1831 direct message me your HIN, and I should be able to look it up

I always like to go back and look at old AWSA towboat test files with engine/tranny/prop specs but they don't seem to host those anymore.

Neither, your second or third pass is where you should spend a lot of time running back to backs. Get the opener out of the way, then spend time where the rhythm and cadence is closer to your hardest pass, but you still have time to think and work on things.

Stoked to finally see the project come to life. From founding the company that has pushed the industry forward for decades to starting the International Water Ski Tour, not only did he change the towboat industry, he forever changed the sport of waterskiing and as a result impacted the lives of countless individuals. He is our founder, our inspiration, and our legacy - for that we are forever grateful. Read the Full Story

@Horton It's early on the West Coast so, I'll cut you some slack. A chamfer is a cut on the edge or corner of something that makes it slope slightly rather than being perfectly square. MasterCraft used to have square platforms but as surfing came into play we began mounting the platforms higher up than we did in the wakeboard days and we started chamfering (or cutting) the corners so that they did not dig into the wake and alter the shape at surf speeds.

@6balls Looks like a wake boat platform. You can certainly buy one through your local dealer! I believe we began cutting chamfers on the rear corners there around mid 2010s so that it didn't cut into the surf wave.

@itsallyellow Might seem a bit strange at first, but you'll learn to love the taste of 'em!

The buckles are much stiffer than the plastic ladders and will thus stiffen the rear boot (likely significantly) as a result. Not sure this is ideal for a rear boot application.

@Horton That men's slalom record has stood for 20 years! Would love to see it go down tomorrow. Men's Jump will be pulled by MasterCraft ProStars (6.0L with 3 blade OJ props) and with guys like Chris Wharton, Chris Eller, and Trent Finlayson behind the wheel at the site where 4 of the last 5 Collegiate Jump Records have gone done we should be in for a treat...
