yet almost another newbie

[david f]

Ive actually been on this site for awhile, but have never really posted. Mostly because I'm a better reader then a typer. Anyway I received my boat in June '06 . Put 68 hours on it since then. I love it, as does my family. When I bought the boat I was an avid water skier and now it seems all I do is board.
Moki' I've wanted to say something sooner to you. Out of the 68 hours on my boat this summer 62 of them were at Powell. I love it there. Spent about 30 days there over the summer. Favorite spot-Weatherill Canyon near Dangling Rope.

Congrats! Welcome (from one newbie to another).

BTW, I LOVE THAT COLOR! Very Bold...I like it.

Welcome

Welcome, officially. Obviously Tige' is doing something right to have the following represented on this site. First Tige' I have seen with that color scheme and I like it a lot.

I assume you bought your Tige' from Charlie @ Tige' Performance Boats? I stopped in to meet them during my last business trip to AZ; good people.

David,
Your boat is in boat heaven and you are a very lucky man! That is awesome that you get so much time on Lake Powell. I am jealous (and my boat is jealous). I have never been to Weatherill Canyon. I saw your awesome pictures near Cookie Jar. You will have to post some pictures of Weatherill. I am the same way with skiing and boarding. I used to be an avid skier and still enjoy it, but I am really learning to love boarding. Officially, a warm welcome to the forum and look forward to hearing from you more. By the way, I love the color scheme on your boat -- very original

Thanks. We love the colors also. It was a first for the dealership. But when it came in everybody there and everybody that came in and saw it loved it. We had alot of fun in it this summer. I will try to get more picks of the lake soon. But I cant think of any that I have that are nearly as good as the picks you have posted from Powell

david f, welcome to the Tige family from another local. Your picture put a smile on my face. My first Tige was ordered with one wakeboard and one ski rack. Then I added another wakeboard rack. The next Tige was ordered with two wakeboard racks and then I added a wakesurf rack. Now the only time I put on a ski is once a year at Powell, just so that I can prove to myself that I can still do it.

And Charlie and Kevin are the best!

Nice looking boat.

Why did you stop sking?? Is the wake to big behind your boat??

[Tequilasun]

Great looking boat, there are so may colors in the Tige catalog that I would never think look good on a boat. Once again I have been proved wrong.

[yllw20]

the colors are cool....good choice w/the black tower.
I think many people on here over 30 started skiing and now are more boarders...I fit into that category also. I am jealous of all you poweller's (word? who cares). I will make it there someday kids are a little young to drag them and the boat there for now.

What I'm 34 and still skiing my a** off!!!

[david f]

Thanx for all the complements on the boat. Richardson Tx. my wife grew up in Dallas. Nowhere is to far from Powell! The kids will love it, no matter the age.

Paublo, where at in Phoenix do you live. I'm in centeral Phoenix and always looking for other people to go to the the lake with. We spend most of are time on Barretlet.

befrank, I haven't given up skiing totaly. I still love it and do it at least one run each trip. If the water is good. I really didn't start boarding till the end of this season. But each time out I like the board even more. More then likely because I get a little bit better each time out.

Sounds cool....just hate to hear of another converter to Wakeboarding!!

But if you like it why not!!! It just never tripped my trigger.

Welcome to the Tige Family!!

david f, I'm in north Glendale and go out to Pleasant regularly with another Tige owner. Less often during the winter, but still about once a month. I've drifted from skiing to wakeboarding as that is all my kids will do and it is easier on my body- takes less effort and falling at slower speeds.
