slaloming at 15' off and 34 mph

[blackwell50]

This has nothing to do with fishing but I succesfully ran a slalom course at 15' off and 34 mph today without busting my azz.

Were you running down the beach off Hutchinson Island using all the swimmers as pylons? Ohh... My mistake, that is just the jet skiers while I'm tarpon fishing.

[Seaker]

It's almost easier as the pull is shorter and the acceleration is much better.

Just remember to pull behind the boat and not at the ball.

You running tournaments or just havin fun....

4 @28 was my mens 4 best.....

I jumped a bit better...requires less thought

Now its knee replacement time

Very cool. Used to own a Mastercraft and ran 22 off at 36mph pretty well...never could get all 6 at 28 off. That was mostly in my late 20's and early 30's. Now at 43 I wonder if I could even get up on a slalom ski!!!! Still have my old O'Brien Synergy Z in the garage!!

Congrats.

22 off scares me crossing the wake.Everything happens so fast.I ski a connelly hook,65".

Yes, still in St. Pete but travel quite a bit. St. Pete born and raised. I have a couple of buddies that live in Jensen Beach and Port St. Lucie. I get over that way to fish and work when ever possible.
