Yea Sunday was a bad day for it. I think Five Seasons (the other team I ski for) actually placed higher than the nuts. I couldn't believe that...conditions were not ideal that's for sure...

Yes but not on Saturday. The water sure was awful on Sunday. Nobody made our opening barefoot line, which has scored over 400 pts in the past, and Badgerland's was a complete disaster as well.

Were you at Nationals last year? RAJ tried pulling this record then. Most the footers fell, and didn't fall from each side at the same time, so the boat (with booms out both side to separate the footers) was ALL over the place. It was NOT pretty!

Do you know how far they are back there? Those lines are waaay long. Did you see the wake the driver made when he fell into the water?

Perhaps you missed this failure of a thread right here on CCF.

Not any kind of direct comparison but fun to watch.

Janesville could do it too. I just think it's a BA video!

They did it, they have the proof but if a Janesville couldn't pull it I'd be more impressed. As far as I know it hasn't been challenged. Awesome driving and awesome skiing on the 2 sides.

Thought we could argue, I mean discuss some popular outboard motors in this thread. Thoughts? This is a SWEET vid of an Evinrude Testimonial on their site. World Record Human Pyramid...
