Thanks for the reply. Substantive, finally. Question about the shoes...can you shoot a link to what you're talking about? Don't cleats eat up the tray? I hear many riders wear wrestling shoes. What helmet do you use and does it drain well or just soak up water?

I'd like a new current relevant post because all my searching is yielding older posts and new gear comes out every year. What gear do you use that is effective and functional for the type of riding you do. (Helmet, gloves, shoes, boots, wet-suits, etc.) What do you wear in colder water/weather...

What did that cost?

And that’s obviously riding hardcore which means riding like a kindergartner should give me a little more time.

I figured it would be a gas hog. I'm putting 2 tanks in the Rickter. Full size front, smaller behind motor. Depending on what I want to do. What's with the dig on cops? You get ticketed? I've been riding there for years...never had an issue.

What goodies are inside your Edge? Has it all been reliable or have you had to wrench on it? Arizona lakes don't make waves. BUT, I'm very happy to hear you are pleased with Taylor and his work. I'm very much looking forward to it. So far, he's been a real kind person and never pressured me for...

No question. I agree, only fair. I will really try to keep my feedback going, even when it's embarrassing. I'll start a new thread for people to tell me what I don't want to hear. Which I'd welcome. That type of feedback is far more valuable.

Oh, that would suck. I sure hope I'm not in that position. I'd rather lose more weight; get myself to a buck 20 and see if that makes a diff.

Ski already sold! Took a small loss off MSRP and a few small upgrades (handle pole spring, bars, grips) but buying new from a dealer I expect it when I drive out of the parking lot. Tanner Thomas and I spoke on the phone a lot 3 weeks ago when I reached out to him from his website. He put me in...

I'm not even worthy of being called a rookie. I dropped 17K on two new SJ's for me and wife 3 weeks ago. I had never ridden before not one time in my life. I took it to the lake on a maiden cruise and picked up riding in about 15 minutes. By the end of the day I was setting up my own wakes to...

Got it, I see now. Thank you

Is this restricted for new users? Wanted to correct a spelling error and didn’t see where to edit.

I had this discussion with Taylor at length. It’s comimg down to cost for me which is also why I’m sticking with the 155 pump. This setup, as basic as it is, costs huge money. We came to the conclusion that based on my budget and current skill set, this ski would be a killer starting point. I’m...

I will pay attention to the advice. Thank you. Is there more to read somewhere about the L-U-V-C wake setups and how to make them and what to expect from them?

I’m in on the gloves. Those look like they will hold up nicely. The water-ski style curved fingers are excellent. I’ve had a pair similar and they make a difference. Helmet … any brand recommendations there? I’ve been on the fence about it but I know I don’t want my face smashed.

What do I need to know? Attack me. Encourage me. I can take whatever. Background: never ridden before. I’m athletic. Sit downs for years. I wanted to try standup. I bought a brand new SJ stock and it was a let down. I wanted more power. I wanted to 360/Flip. I only ride flat water. I wanna...
