GT40 probs

Talk about a thread jack..... David,I got mine out on kneeboards when they were 5...close to the water, no strap (until they were comfortable with it)then they graduated to the wakeboard at their own accord..I asked several times about skiing but got the usual "No!" They are 15 & 18 and still kneeboard and wakeboard. Told them I still wanted them to learn to ski as I wanted the Father Daughters ski picture by the end of this year which they said "Okay Dad"...we'll see.....

Try a kneeboard Dave if you haven't already.

Nothing piques a young boy's interest in skiing like seeing Molly Mae in her bikini at the starting dock. Works the opposite way, too. I went to the FL State and with some of my friends watched the maneuvering around the starting dock and at the Junior Banquet. I was pleased to see that we have a pretty good contingent of juniors participating.

Yep.. this year I got my two nieces 13,15 and nephew 11 up on the slalom ski... without the pressure of dad in the boat. Sent dad/brother the teaser pic w/option to buy video. Almost had 8yr old daughter up behind boat on slalom... but did get her on the boom on slalom and barefoot in the swing on boom if that counts. 7 yr old son skied about 200 yards and packed it in... always wants wants a wakeboard (If my wife and I were not present, he'd do it) 4 yr old skiing with the the trainer skis.

a lot of happy moments of triumph with skis... the tube always causes issues! Kids get hurt, I loose sister-in-laws etc.. I'm sure all that sh*t comes up in court cases etc...

The photo makes it look as though there are two towlines, so it must take TWO boats to pull this guy!!!!

Gary did you see the Bear's next move though "tube to foot"

Even Pete does not have that trick in his repertoire

David awesome... now you need the same pic every year.
