blame the water conditions
blame the wind
blame the driver
course is out of calibration
Any more good ones?

First time I ever tried it...........which sadly is true in my case. :noface:
Didn't want to hurt the fish by the turn ball, so I cut it short.

Ski needs recalibrated
Sun was glaring off the water, couldn't see the buoys
Oh, you don't have Perfect Pass? hmmm.... I'll do my best
Oh I am sore from the yardwork the other day
Heard em' all, used a few too! :D

Boat was going too slow.
and rope was too long
I also use river current as an excuse when going down stream.
Wetsuit/swim trunks too tight

That's my excuse also... I'm fairly new to slalom, and I'm not against learning. :banana:
it was too smooth. i like a little ripple.
To one of the members in our club:
"man I can't ski when you bring your wife out here this early and she wears that bikini so I'll just drive ok"

When skiing behind a friends boat........

how bout this, I got distracted by some bikini clad females that just happened to be jogging on the beach:popcorn: :wavey: , and I missed the entire flippin' course but, it was a perfect field goal, I skied directly through the middle of all the bouys..... :banana:

"Winter rules."
"That last buoy was a gimme."

I think that happened to me once.
what course, i was distracted by Mag's aviator!
tide must be low, the bouys are not consistent
too windy
And, it is always always the drivers fault. A kid at sun n ski told me that today about wakeboarding
Steveo took me skiing last night. Windy as chit. White caps all down the coarse. I just sky skied(stunk it up). He hit the course and offered up no excuses. I guess beers will do that for you! Good time and great boat!

I just eat!
I have not eaten yet!
Wakes too big!
the rooster tail got me!
the marbles from the boat got me!
I'm skiing like a girly man!
You gave me too many things to think about!
Ball 5 was so pretty I could not take my eye's off it! :love:
