Skipped my morning set today.My partner fell at his third pass and the rope slipped from the pylon without me noticing(No spotter!
![]() Caught the rope with the prop while picking him up!!! After 20 minutes of diving under the boat,i was out of breath and out came the knife! Managed to cut only the white rope and salvage the rest. Second time this happen in 25 years of skiing.

I was out with fellow TT'rs - today... drilled on my wake crossing today... was very conscious of staying on edge, keeping hands down, and inside shoulder back....
Will post pictures later or tomorrow.

The 1st few attempts @ 34 felt blazing fast... With more attempts it slowed down because I was learning it... The last 34 where I ran it, I ran as easily as I did the 30s! My neck is a lil stiff, but I'll get over it... |

I need some advice. I ride left foot forward and I have never actually ran a course but I am a aggressive open water skier. I weigh 185lbs and am 6', I ride a HO Freeride 2009 with double attack 2012 boots. I can carve deep hard and fast from the right side but I have issues doing the same thing from the left side. I had a friend recommend initiating the left side turn one handed to pull my body around. I was outside the wake to the left and worked on my left turn a bunch the last day out and was slowly getting better with the one hand practice but it still didn't feel right. I am aware that my technique probably needs a lot of work as I am completely self taught.
Looking for some help on getting better at crossing the wake on edge and help carving harder. |

A few things to try: 1. As you turn the ski, plant the handle and ski to it. 2. Look at the pylon in the boat 3. Give your right shoulder to the boat instead of pointing your shoulders in the direction of travel 4. Center your body on the ski so you have 65-70% of your weight on the front (you don’t want to tail ride). Try that next time out and have someone film you. let me know how that works for you. |
