  1. Thanks for all the help guys! How about a water jet boat? I know of a few good ones, but would they be good for skiing?
  2. Something that can tackle a bit of weather but still produce an okay/great wake?
  3. And does anyone know if the featherframe front is the same as the ho pattern front? They look identical.
  4. Can you ride a ski faster than its been designed for and still have it function normally? Like a theory at 36?
  5. Another question, is there a rule for which palm you have up and which palm you have down?
  6. Anyone have this vest? Wondering how it compares to their x vest. Thanks
  7. Just a question, once someone gets to 36 mph 15 off. What ski should they get then?
  8. Anybody know how the encore compares too this?
  9. @andjules But that means that any system with 2 different releases is also unsafe? So a double animal for example wouldn't be safer than an rtp and an animal. What systems release both at the same time?
  10. For a thicker wetsuit, mystic is awesome.
  11. Oh i understand how "sick" that is. Its just like watching cliff divers, you don't even have a chance to comprehend what they are doing, so you say "sick". Its the word for something that can't be explained with words. Something amazing.
  12. @Than_Bogan I just want to know how, i have nobody to teach me. So i ask here. I know that i wont be measuring ropes for at least 5+ years but knowing how is just cool. Thats why i'm asking all these questions, i just want to know stuff. I love skiing in general and just got on the water this year, but have had 6 snow season in a row with 100+ days. Now i finally found something to do during the summer. Waterskiing is a amazing thing, that i know with time i can get "good" at. There is just about having skis on your feet that just feels right.
  13. A question, how do you guys measure your ropes?
  14. And what do the different settings mean? Like c1, etc. Also any good place to read up on the water ski history? I need to learn the pros and what not. that video was sick, is that the world record?
  15. Combo skis in a normal lengths(66,67,68), but with the smallest boots? My sister needs something small
  16. Could someone explain zero off, perfect pass to me? Also what counts as a full pass?
  17. @ejj im also interested in hearing if it something new and fun.
  18. This is awesome Got a bunch more questions from all the reading i have done. Should i just post them here?
  19. Thanks guys! A few more questions. Do people always run new ropes lengths at the full speed for their gender/age? Or do they slow it down. If i have been learning on the inner buoys(what i was told to do) Will i have a hard time transitioning to the outer ones? I got up to a full pass at 30mph doing the inner buoys my first time. Will i have to start all over again for the outer buoys?
  20. Hey, i'm new to the waterskiing world. How does running a course work? When do you use different speeds? Different rope lengths? Different rope lengths with different speeds? In courses with to buoys on the side, what is the outer buoy? Thanks
