thanks for all the comments. We are back on the water for Summer 2014!

Love skiing in water like that.

Bueno! Fantastic video and muchas gracias to you for uploading it. Great welcome to you from Chicago, Illinois.

What an incredible lake, Vancouver island

thanks for the comment. I guess whatever comes to mind will be next. ski set-up will have to be broken down.. i think 15-28 off, 35-38 and then beyond.

yes. work the opposites from skiing. this is easier said than done. I work on my core throughout the season. this year's been rough but have found a set of reps that are doing the job. i'll see if i can post them because they are pretty good.

what is the speed of this boat? what's the minimum of the rope supposed to be? your skills are a professional's!

Free skiing is great. Never going to ski a course? It's fun to have a goal of seeing how low the shoulders can be to the water in the turns (and wicked fun when you can max it out). If you do ski the course, I'd advise attempting to pull just as hard as you would in the course, and to try hard to know you are as wide as the bouys at all times, because too much free skiing can be intense enough and fun enough to fool you into thinking you are wider/better than you are. Done right, free skiing can be a very workable substitute for course practice in terms of strength building, rythym, and even competently running shorter line lengths, at least in my experience.

Cool Video! I look forward to seing more of them.

Great skiing Paul hey what boat u using

@jamester1666 bigger ski, move boots forward (and fin forward) or try moving the rear boot in a bit. keep the knees together.

It's for better traction and in some cases can help him go over the wake quicker

@AlvinSpitoon that's a tough one. try to reduce weight in the boat, trim it - find a friend with a Ski Nautique, do a boat swap, join a group of other skiers, whatever you can do.

Very helpful--thank you thank you!

any tips fore your right turn... my back leg sometimes get caught in the water?

Stamina WOW

can you do this with even the most basic slalom ski? like one with no lace up boot just the plastic adjustable binding?

@cooldrummer007i free ski at 28 or 32 off 13M to 12M but also ski longer ropes. right now I am skiing 16.25Meters

@go46ball hi - film with a trakker it always looks narrow. have plenty of width i can assure you.

Any techniques for increasing endurance? I'm in pretty good shape, I can do 30 pull-ups non stop, but my hands and forearms always seem to give out too early when I'm skiing. It probably doesn't help that I'm skiing behind a 24' behemoth that throws out a monster wake but I'm convinced I'm doing something wrong, I know I can hang on longer if I had more proper technique.

Yes the A1. With FM Boots we have a 65" on special $1200 Thanks

If you have a boat with a HUGE wake like mine, do you have any tips on getting across the wake with a wake thats massive?

@zm2small longest rope ie "15 off" or 60 feet of rope and 30 mph for starting the course. don't use the gates and swing wide!

hey but the rope is not 18 meters what is for slalom..

@unicycle2301 I am going 34 mph. cold water run 32-33 mph. mininum is 28 to 30 mph for an adult. warmer water increase 1-2 mph.

Hey nice vid and I was just wondering what camera do you use and how long is your ski rope

Nice

love the ski btw HO Syndicate? nice! how much was tht with bindings?

nice. how you got snow up on some of those mountains in the back?

I am a beginner, and really want to be able to throw up that wall of water. Any tips?

Hi! Thank you for this helpful video. By the way, I hear lots of people keep on talking about Avalorexon Training Program (google it), but I'm not sure if it is good. Have you thought about this ski training known as Avalorexon Training Program? I've heard many unbelivable things about it.

What kind of boat are you skiing behind?

Why the music?

i can slalom ski but i dont know much about it, why does he let go of one hand when he cuts

TSC1 Nautique with no back seat 1/4 tank gas. Yep keep that wake low!

what does 32 off mean?
