Strangest thing you tried to ski on?

Yea they look the same except the strip that the screws are under is on the inside. Ill take some pics here when it warms up again and I can pull her out in all if its new shiny glory.

Looks good i waxed all of the black on it and it looks nice. Someone put the quarter windows on the wrong way on your boat. The stickers on them now face in instead of out but they will be gone in a day or so. I will get some pics when its all shiney in the water.

hey hey 65 I had a hard time finding that haha but its on now:)

You could try skiing on your new windshield! Carefully!

That's funny about the cleats. You could always do like the AYSO officials make little kids do; if they show up with football cleats, they let them use 'em as long as they hacksaw the single front cleat (that soccer shoes shouldn't have) off. In your case you could saw off the front several. Wouldn't be much good for soccer then though!
I've goe a pair of older tricks (Connelly PR Professionals) I don't think they were real pricy, but not bad. I just couldn't get the hang of one. I know "Don't look down when turning" that's about it! I skied on an old Kidder RedLine before. That was a nice ski! My old slalom ski (I still have too) was basically an O'brien Word Team Comp, but they gave some a funny RW&B paint job in 1976 (Bicentennial)when I got it as a Christmas gift from my folks. It's beginning to show signs of age (like me)! My hero(s) were Bob and Chris LaPoint. I guess more so Bob. I thought they had the life. Catfish farming and aerating their livelihood (the catfish ponds) by water skiing! (that's from some story I read years ago). "Okay boys, rise and shine! Gotta go skiing to keep the catfish healthy."

standing on a lawn chair or riding a step ladder on a homemade 3-4 foot diameter homemade wooden disk. Local sheriff put a stop to the step ladder idea.

One time my friends and I found an old water toboggen (big board with stirrup to hold on to - rope directly from sled to boat) I was standing up on it going down the lake, pulling back hard on the stirrup. The rope to the boat broke and the front of the board came up and whacked me in the head. Nothing bleeds like a head wound. I looked like I had been shot. I was fine and we were laughing about it. Sheriff pulled up, looked at the blood pouring out of my head, asked if I was ok. "Yup...just fine... thanks for asking."

64X,
I've got three pairs of Chuck Taylors in the boat for me and my boys. Greatest shoe for goofing around at slower speeds.

Nautique 2001 - Yeah, I always think people that can do much of anything on a single trick ski are probably the most coordinated. They're just hard to fool with. I still have a set I get on once and a while, but very seldom the single one. I used to be able to turn around on it, but can't at all anymore.
I can still start backwards (deepwater) on the pair of them. That's a fun trick. Wakeboards probably look cooler I admit, but a good single trick ski rider has my respect!

tullfooter - Yeah, the hitting bottom thing is easy to do. It takes some getting used to, but it is pretty cool buzzing along the lake bottom and looking around at everything. It's like you're Jaqueskques Coooustowe!
(I knew I'd spell that wrong anyway, so I figured I'd do it up right!). I can spell "Calypso!" - I think that's right.

Me and two other drunk people on a 12ft longboard!!

Tell us more please Lake!

Every plastic sled that my kids own have been behind the boat at one time or another.
64X, we did that same thing. We always used a light line because sure enough, that thing hit the bottom of the lake and we had many stumps.
Last year my kids tried to ride a snowboard with no luck.
