Got my new Ronix One Timebomb in yesterday! Sold my RXT to a buddy of mine. I'm ready to ride!
Awesome! I probably won’t get a new setup till next season but who knows [emoji2369]

Plenty of deals on Evo, The House and Boardco. Force Kite and Wake has discontinued Liquid Force bindings. They say kite, but they're the same thing as regular wakeboard bindingsQuote:

Currently riding:
Hyperlite State 2.0 - 140
Liquidforce Trip - 139
Wakeboarded some in my college years, tore my ACL in Fall of 2019, so just now getting back into it. rode some last summer, but not as much as i wanted. Couldn't even go wake to wake behind my Chaparral...:(
With our new Mojo on the way, really itching to get out and ride behind a proper wake boat! Until then, using my Revolution Swell balance board to keep things sharp
Good luck. The Marek was a great board. If you really liked it, the Riot Bio may be really good for your style as wellQuote:

I am wearing a CTI Custom. Your orthopedic surgeon may be able to write you a prescription for it or another brand. My insurance covered mine.Quote:

Not totally sure. Do you still have any follow ups? If not, maybe schedule an appointment and voice your concerns to get 1. You may also want to call your insurance to see if it might be covered. You could also track down the local rep for Ossur or Breg and ask them the best way to go about a brace.Quote:

I swapped a year ago from Hyperlite to Ronix Space Blanket. The Camber rocker was a bit to get use to but loving it so far. Only issue now is my right knee has a tear in the meniscus which will limit my boarding this year unless the water is just glass. Just have to surf more I guess
I've ridden my buddy's Hyperlite Franchise a few times. I liked it.Quote:

Temps are coming up! Getting out Thursday to ride. My buddy just picked up a new Riot Bio, I will be on my new One Timebomb. Should be a fun afternoon as my friend can shred.
Lucky you! I’m still going to wait another few weeks before we get out there!
Pics or it didn’t even happen!

I've been riding all winter. I can't upload pics anymore as I don't use Tap-a-talkQuote:

It’s not hard to pull the drain plugs worst case

A couple different friends keep their boats going and can winterize in 15-20 minutes.. as Larry said, I can pull my plugs and do the crossover hose in about 10 minutes, or run antifreeze through the sea strainer.Quote:

I’ve been itching to get out but afraid of overnight temps.
I know about the plugs but haven’t located them all just yet.
How many are there? Are these only the blue plugs?
And to be clear. If I take the boat out and say I need to “re winterize” as long as I drain the block in 100% good to go?
Learning to do this will get me out on the water much quicker every year [emoji38]

Anyone have any input on the Ronix District? Used to ride a LF Trip and a LF Bonifay.
The district is a solid board, that's I use for guests.Quote:

You have 1 blue plug on the heat exchanger at the transom, remove surf locker wall to get to it and your impeller and oil filter. A plug on your v drive anode and another on a V drive hose to the left of the engine. You have to remove the upholstered panel over the transmission hatch and remove the whole cover assembly, 4 bolts, to access them. It sounds like a lot, but once you do it a couple times, it's a 10-15 minute job. You can also just pump 5 or 6 gallons of antifreeze in through your sea strainer at your transmission hatch until it runs out the exhaust.Quote:

That is exactly what I am looking for, a board I can enjoy and let others ride as well. Thanks.Quote:

Has anyone checked out the new board prices?! I rode my buddies one a few years ago and liked it so I was looking at the new ONE Blackout but damn a $800 board is going to be tough to swallow.
They're getting expensive, but you're also looking at a top of the line board. The 1 Timebomb is a couple hundred less and the 1 ATR is even less than that. Just like the Hyperlite Riot, the Nova is a couple hundred more than the Bio.Quote:
