I am headed to MI on the 7th and to torch on the morning of the 10th. If anyone else is going up early let me know we will meet up. I ll probably be on a boat most of friday and not the ski.(gotta save it for the event so it doesnt break lol).

PS i will have a Beach dolly with me if anyone is concerned about that.

well i am going to roll this weekend in the surf. I can get upside down on my stabs so a little more throttle and a little more turn of the bars and i should have that. So hopefully i ll get rolls down in the surf and then maybe i can work on the flat water rolls.
 
same here! except for the surf part lol with out a setup wake i can get upside down and finish the roll under water and ride away. with a set up wake i always get stuck up side down and flop, so i need to commit! haha

theres probably gonna be 4 skis comin down with us now :headbang: mine and my dads 750's a buds 440, and i just got another friend to buy a 550.

there might be more guys coming too........

Hey Jordan, do you want to take my bouy course up with you? I had 24 bouys with weights and ropes the last time I counted. Miight want to check to see if it's allowed first but it's sitting here not being used.

I gots no paperwork for it right now, would that be a problem? I sent it all in to get it registered. It still has the Canadian reg numbers on it.

The reg is good, (Canadian Regs are free, a one time deal and are good for the life of the ski), so it's the same as any out of state ski that attends, I just don't have a copy of the regs to send with the ski.
