Age old question: Is a new ski going to get me further?
mikey replied to Joeprunc's topic in Skis Fins Bindings
Fall is coming... I'm getting the dirt bike itch... maybe a new KTM is what you need! Stick with the Strada! -
I have HRT too and rally like it. Start with both feet in. No problem getting up!
-
+1 on HRT. Like it much better than standard RTP
-
I've been listening owing for this boot too in size 11. No luck yet...
-
I'm doing a project like this too.. thinking about hanging some old skis and putting hangers on them to hang up life jackets, towels.... ideas welcomed
-
I've got a Senate alloy with T-Factor front and HRT rear.. Really liking this set up. It's a great ski for me. Running 28 to 30 mph 15 off.
-
Get you a pair of Stokes gloves. They are a thinner glove but hold up well. They cost $50. Good price point for what you get
-
I'm in the same boat as you.. I have ran 15 off at 28mph a handful of times. I ski on a 2012 Senate alloy. It's very forgiving.. I've been thinking about upgrading a bit to the Senate Lithium... I guess the lithium will be quite a bit lighter ski than alloy..
-
Not sure. But, I just bought a 2007 MC X15. It has a adjustable wake plate... It like looks to have a decent slalom wake... Does your boat have a wake plate? If so you may be able to adjust for a skiable wake..
-
Next time your in LR for a couple days holler at me. A buddy and I free ski quite a bit on the Arkansas river here in LR. Maybe give you a pull sometime. Those old skis are cool. Ive got a few at my lake house that I may hang up on a wall or fence.
-
Im also heading to ski school this Saturday to try and run the course for the first time too.
-
I'm in the same situation you are.. I've been skiing behind a cobalt 200. I can only go about 5 feet off 75 foot rope. The wake is just to big... Anyway, I'm probably gonna buy a mid nineties ski tug just for skiing. Heading to DFW ski school in a couple of weeks to work on learning the course. Good luck.
-
I usually just stay at Hampton Inn in Greenville. It's like 15 min from DFW Ski school. Don't wait till Sept.. Alan may be closed down by then.. Usually get three sets in per day.. I would say you'll be spent after two days of hard skiing... I hope to get down there in June
-
I've been to DFW ski school. Alan is a very good coach. Tom Brantely may be there too. It's fun to ride in the boat and watch Tom ski.. Anyway, i plan on going there this summer too. We always go to this hole in the wall Mexican place for lunch... Good times..
