Thanks for contributing. Nice 197! So, how did the boom get bent or is it made that way??

Nice vid! That's a pretty skinny river at some points. Anyone ever lose the rope before a ball and hit the shore? Oh, that would be something I would do...

Thanks! I was a bit narrow, but still wide enough to run the pass that day. amazing what progress i made after kyle coached me. Now I am so wide and early, the 15 pass is a given, i am deep into 22 each time and dabbling with a few tries at 28.

What I am working on now is getting the hips to the handle and the handle to the hips at the buoy - got to bring the handle down!!!!! If i could get that perfected, i'd run that 28 pass this year.

yes, the river site is narrow, and its shallow. props have been hit this year... i have had to let loose a few times and had to turn my ski down coarse to avoid skiing into shore.

No, it was bent. We were trying to use a handle off of the boom with someone who had never done that before. So, it was bent the first time we tried it and it was damn scary when it happened. I was driving and was not sure what all had broken when the boom recoiled.

Actually, now it seems to work a little better as the handle is more level now for people out on the boom. We now call it the 'articulated' boom.

Nice work you old skidog!! I think I would have caught a toe pretty quick with all that prop wash.

On the older 190's it wasn't nearly as bad. I used to could go a pretty long way doing that, but that spray killed me!

No, this was taken at Lake Chatuge in July and I had already sold it before we went.
