Time for @CParrish43 to run a new WR?
-
Wednesday is now completely full. Thursday only has 5 spots left. @CParrish43

Hey Ballers! More specifically CO Ballers, Chris Parrish will be coming through town and spending 2 days at Lakeview Ski Club for a 2 day clinic June 13th and 14th. I am coordinating this clinic so if you'd like to take a set with a legend and learn from one of the most efficient skiers ever, please reach out to me. Also we will hopefully be using the new 2019 Ski Nautique. Should be an awesome two days!!

Great video Marcus, Dave! See you guys at Nationals. I would have never thought that my question about the pontoon bevels would mean that they were for grip because the rate of concave moving in went up. I thought by looking at them that they provided more support when the ski was on edge or in a turn. Very cool to learn the reason for them and how they work. Thanks! -
@rico how do you like the 18 compared to the 17? Pros/cons?
-
@rico what is your height ans weight? Im 6’3 200 lbs. and ride a 68 2017 Pro Build Vapor. I love the ski, but im considering the 2018. Have you ever ridden the 2017 and if so where you on a 67? Im torn between a 68 or 67. I ski 36 but will be dropping down to 34 next year. I can get into 38 off so not a great skier.

@Bruce_Butterfield WHat makes the other more modern skis easier?
-
@eleeski @markTimm @ everyone Is this a good trick ski? I am 6'3" ~200 and it's a 43", will it work? Also I need a rear loop, what are my options and how do I know how to mount it without holes as a guide?
-
Can anyone tell me what I have here? Is it worth slapping boots on? I’m a slalom guy and know nothing about trick skis but was considering getting into it as a time killer on the lake. Something to mess around with when I’m bored.
-
Anyone interested? Good to have spares.
-
@LeonL I was in a hurry and the port side of the OB 200 is a pain to remove the cable all in one piece.
-
Make me an offer. In 100% working condition. Came off my 2015 200 that I converted to ECI. You will have to do a little wire splicing, I had to cut the wire to get the puck out.
-
Is there something to be said about a heavier ski? Is lighter always better? The A1 had very large pontoon like bevels on both sides. Can you comment why those bevels used on the A1 went away? Seems like I picked up a really old 80's learning ski and it also had those same wide flat spot bevels on both sides. Maybe that's why the A1 was so stable?
-
Also 3" wider beam vs. a 200. New wake diffusers seem interesting, I wonder if the dip in the wake gone? Might be a little difficult to wax this new boat with all those new angles. Can't wait to drive and ski one!
-
@BraceMaker Pehaps! It's very weird fuel! I have to change my oil in my car every 1000 miles because of oil dilution. After running it for a few years in my race car my valves look very, very bad! It also doesn't play well with certain hoses and rubber.
-
For reliability and longevity, stay away from E85. Also E85 is hygroscopic and running it in a boat could mean a lot of oil dilution. I run E85 in my 700 HP turbo 4 cylinder and it's hard on the internals. With E85 you have to run a lot more fuel to produce the same HP. But it's far less prone to detonation than pump gas. In Turbo applications this means you can run heaps of boost and get away with it. Like @BraceMaker said, it's 2 dollars racing fuel! Pretty amazing stuff but has some cons.

If the H6 isn't in the budget go 409 all day loooooooooonnnggggggg!
-
I agree with @skiinxs, H6 then ZR409. I have a 2015 with the ZR409. However the new ZR409 in the 2017's and 2018's do not come with the closed loop cooling. The 409's are known to run a little on the hot side. Without the closed loop cooling from the factory, this could cause engine failure earlier. Something to think about. If it were me and I was going to buy a brand new boat...I'd go H6! Or find a used 200 with H6 or used 2015, 2016 ZR409.

SOLD

Yes @Ed_Johnson it's a great prop at lower elevations. In CO or higher you may want the 654 or an OJ 13.9 X 14.25 RH.
-
Anyone need a new prop? This is the suggested prop for Ski Nautique 200 6.0L.
-
Maybe to fill the void Waterski Mag has left??
303Skier replied to Wish's topic in News & Other Stuff
Probably a good guess. -
@JRPFoCo - You're welcome to ski with me anytime next year. I spent a year in FL with my family and will be back in CO for next ski season. My family has a private lake in Greeley with course but we live in Broomfield so I usually get a membership at Lakeview (Firestone, CO) as well because it's closer to us. I usually ski 3-4 sets a week. PM me if you need another option. PS - I have a 2015 SN 200 with Zero Off (Single puck).

Where to measure Bf on a Reflex Supershell?
303Skier replied to C5Quest's topic in Skis Fins Bindings
Measure from right under the cleat on the back. That's where @eddie_roberts_jr measures from. -
Again I'm not trying to take away from the victory, @AdamCord skied lights out and crushed the competition. He and the new Denali looked incredible from the shore. I even chatted with him about the new ski before I took my set. Love the new tech that they incorporated into this ski. After hearing your thoughts and perspective @AdamCord I can see both sides and your frustration as well. Maybe level 10 is a good idea. Great skiing and congrats on the Chanpionship!
