was just watching the MasterCraft Pro Water Ski Championships on OLN in Aspen, Ohio

admittedly, I know less than squat about slalom skiing, but I was watching Wade Cox after his 3@39.5 off pass.....he was talking to the interviewer, holding what else? a dancing banana!!!
he fiddled with a peeled banana during the whole interview....I thought it was hilarious.:banana:

I did enjoy seeing the emotion in Andy Mapple after his 2@41 off pass. It brings the sport into different perspective, that's for sure. He was talking about all the new young blood in the sport.

Then watched Jamie Beauchene fail for 3@41 off, so he tied Mapple....in his interview he didn't display much emotion, .

so, I'm surmising that Andy Mapple is the true spirit of the sport.
He won the runoff against Jamie with 2@41 off to win the Championship.

this is the first ski championship I've watched and I enjoyed it.

oh yeah, the MC commercials were cool too

It is even better to see live. The past few years the MC Open has been here in Charleston at Trophy Lakes. It is awesome to see these guys ski. They make it look effortless.
