and i clocked 98km/hr i don`t know what that is in miles,but i fed the data in a laptop-and top speed was recorded between the wakes,the so called "power zone"but i ran at 58km/hr 14.25 meters...
the pros are runnin about 70-75 mph across the wake. i dont think ill ever get that good, mostly cuz the water is never that glassy here. i blame the tubers that do circles around the course.
i could tly watch this again and again but it ttly makes me want to just pop into the screen and go skking rite now!! ughhh i want summer to come in! :)
it looks hard to do this and im not sayin it isnt but when ur goin like 60 mph then when ur cut really hard the boat striaghtens u back out making the resistance al ittle less easier to deal with
Mate i have been sking for 12 years, and i am a good skier, but these blokes are on a complete other level. They would be sking for there whole lives so what makes you think that in you short life you can do it better then those pros?
Goes to show you the boat doesn't HAVE to go 80mph to get your SPEED Fix! With the proper angle and tight line you get ALL the speed you need. Great compilation of TRUE skiing!
What a brilliant clip! I wish I could ski/turn that well. It's a good choice of track to accompany the footage too - a refreshing change from angry meat-head metal. Anyway, clip inspired me to head off to the river to practice, practice, practice ad nauseam.
Maqkes me want to buy76 a tournament boat. Please post what these guys look like on a choppy day behind a plain old family runabout. Just kidding awsome. I will watch it many times. Video is the way to improve your form.
holy fuck...ok i can slalom, but nuthin like that. damn thoes guys are amazing. their tails go on for fucking ever, and their turns are perfectly done. (the song is gay though)
Nice!
