    New Vapor Boot

    Been on the lastest vapor binding from radar on the front. Still feel like it’s one of the safest and I released no probables off the 2nd wake this week. Released no problem as long as worn properly. Make sure to read the instructions and listen to pro shops on this beauty. Used a few previous year models and this is the best yet
  2. I’ll be there!👍🏽 Catching me under the HO/Miami Nautique tent. Looking forward to meeting some fellow ballers
  3. Works 01-all sizes Works 02-Extra Large (68”) Available at Miami Nautique
  4. Hey Ballers. Just recieved orders to be stationed at Cape Disappointment in Ilwaco, WA. I am in the Coast Guard and am an avid skier from Wisconsin. I've actually never been to the Pacific Northwest. Wondering if you are still skiing or what your season is like. The station is close to Astoria and I would love to find someone I could connect with to continue to ski. I am willing to drive and reimburse for gas. Thank you.
  5. Wish I could have those 3 minutes back
  6. Thanks for the tip, I've found These aluminum buckles. What did you use to secure them to the boot?
  7. @Waternut glad I could spark some motivation. Those looked like they turned out great. Did you say you had another set of those aluminum buckles? I also think the ones from Reflex are pricey, so I'm looking into alternatives. How hard were those to put on your boot?
  8. Has anyone found any other sources for the aluminum buckles other than from reflex?
  9. Picked up the 2015 Vapor, skied a practice PB within 5 sets. Now everyone has me thinking about picking up the 16.
  10. @Sivota what ski are you currently on?
  11. Ordered one off of Amazon a few weeks ago. Sucks the Radar Skis Store website is still down. Radar Sticker
  12. @schafer please keep me posted if you get any more info.
  13. The same exact thing happens with my 196!!!! @schafer do you know where I could locate the ground. I know it'll be black but thats about it.
  14. I'm no expert, but I do know that the 2016 Graviton Trick ski is red. Usually the Vapor follows suit.
  15. Hello, I have a 2005 SN 196 with Perfect Pass version 6.4. This is long overdue as we've had it a few years, and Perfect Pass has never really "worked". It's not a necessity as it never sees a course but would be nice for free skiing. What happens is, the display will turn on and off while the boat is running. And when it is on, IT BEEPS A LOT!! Also, it'll start timing. Kinda hard to explain what it's all doing, but something is definitely not right. Does anyone know if this is a common problem or if the display is shot? Might be some loose connection? Only 670 hours on the boat, so I don't think that should be an issue. Thanks. Any help greatly appreciated.
  16. Hello all. A few of my friends are talking about us taking a road trip in the Midwest to explore different lakes to ski and to just have a good time. We live in southeastern wisconsin, but we are willing to travel probably not much more than 6 or 7 hours. Has anyone done a trip like this or know of any great lakes/rivers? Ideally it'd be a new lake each day, while camping in the evening. If there was a course, that would be awesome, be we are looking for glass water and spectacular sights. Thanks.
  17. UGH I have the same problem! I've heard a few people that just cut a section of the plastic off, but I dont want to risk it. I wish there was some way around this. After my set I release the bungee,but the liner just stays on my feet when I pull them out. Then, I have them to dry.
  18. Recently just bought a FinFirkin..Love the name. Great product. The only thing I noticed that with a slightly wider tail of the Senate-C, it does fit rather tight and takes some force to get it on the ski.
  19. We used uShip to buy our 196 from SC to WI. I was a bit nervous buying it without seeing it in person, but I knew the seller was legit.
  20. Unfortunatley, we are all frozen right now, with about 1.5 feet of snow still on the grass. Which is why I'm headed to Arizona on thursday to go get a few sets in!
  21. I was in your shoes a few months ago. I end up picking up the Radar Graviton with a Reflex. All I can say is the few sets I have on it, I did not want to stop skiing. Now during the winter months I soothe the addiction by wearing my reflex around this house. This should tell you just how comfortable they truely are.
  22. the Bic boards pretty nice, cheaper than most
