MyWake Finals LIVE in Orlando

[JreisRZR]

all i could think was that it looked alot like the new star, size, shape all

[JreisRZR]

well the other thing i was thinking is (ive had pros on my boat) they have no idea how to work a tige if they dont normally ride one, no one does. they take forever to get dialed in. its not like an mc where its "hey lets hit the switches, set our speed and go" taps adds extra values. it pays off though. still claiming rzr as the biggest20 footer wake

22 mph, taps 3, 2100 lbs ballast 1200 rear, 900 front, 2-235 lb passengers and half a tank of gas.

We will be broadcasting at 9am EST today, get started earlier for wakesurfing, went slow yesterday, the lake is deep enough for surfing, but like seaweed or whatever its called in florida is right at your feet underwater. I have no clue about wakeboarding setup but I know that was wreaking havoc with our surf wake all day. We added more weight for today to compensate in the right places, should help. Did you see Chase's air 180s though? Didn't seem to hurt him much, I didn't think that much air was even possible.

Here is chase from a screen grab.



Check out the pro camera on the jet ski behind him. There were pro cameras in the boat, on skis, on the shore, its been amazing to be a part of an event with this type of budget and no expense spared kind of attitude to make the riders look their best.

Hmmm - What's this thing on the swim platform? I smell an R&D project...at first I thought it was a camera but then I thought why would it be fully submerged? It looks to be directly affecting the wave too.

My, what sharp eyes you have Cannot wait to hear about that bit of gear.

Is the stream down?

Is the stream down?

Nevermind. I had to install Flash Player again for some reason, even though it worked yesterday.

[bspot]

Is that Ragboys Z3 in the surf comp?

I agree. I'm about halfway through watching the replay of yesterday's Pro Men Wakeboard and Daniel and Rusty's runs looked pretty clean. Dowdy's run looked pretty rough though it didn't seem to bother him. He hit a pretty nasty looking wake on his 2nd trick but still landed a crow mobe 540. Tricks 2,3 and 4 on his 2nd run were into a washed or slightly dirty wake.

Lafferty's 2nd run was really dirty except for his first trick.

Who's driving? I heard Watkins say that Travis Moye was driving at one point when Dan asked him to give the play by play for Scotty Broome. I wonder if the TAPS plate was too high or if maybe the driver just didn't get the boat straightened back up. I can't imagine they had enough weight in the bow if it was just the stock Pro ballast and 3-4 people in the boat.

Is this possibly the mudflap we keep hearing about?

[chpthril]

I think we have a winner! I agree it looks like the mud flap

[skippabcool]

I was wondering if that was what it was but I didn't think it would stick out so far and it doesn't seem even.

[houstonshark]

Is it just me or does the wakeboard wake today for Pro Men look bigger, especially the starboard side?

[ragboy]

Yes, that was our Z3, shipped all the way from Cali for this event. The flap is nothing, however, the boat is stopping at the factory on the way back for some type of ....
