Buoy course layout options?

[ATS_Aaron]

A couple weeks ago we laid out 7 buoy's for a simple course (I have 8 buoys we only used 7 that day because of a lack of rope and anchors).. We had a BLAST trying to compete around that thing. Previous to this I had no interest in racing, just freestyle.

Here is an example of how we laid the course out. We went counterclockwise, so most of the turns were lefts.

I would like to see examples of possible 8 buoy course. anyone got any?

Thanks,

Aaron

I am extremely interested in this as well

Did I mention my awesome MS Paint skills, and my excellent use of the touch pad to draw a such a fluid/smooth line?

Its a workout man.

here is a few.
will take a few more bouys, the second one is one we had set up in a catfish pond, actually a very fast course and spread out, the first one is a simple one we have set up on the river.

I'll get lost.

Didn't you see the lame pace we kept at Texoma? If it wasn't for that 8 yr old kid and Quick Mick we would have been the slowest out there. We would just be traffic on your bouy course.

No way bro we have all skill levels out there
we set up the same every weeekend so once you get it you got it 4 ever
Plus the cruisers have been thick the last two weeks

Last weekend we had 2 newbs that can barely stand on the ground much less a ski when they got there By the end of the day they were atleast making right and left turns

Your crew can ride :Banane25:

Nice burn on Mick by the way

Scott and I ran bouys the other day... first time for me and I had a freaking blast. It really teaches you to go on and lean out... it helped me alot.
