Replying to Topic 'looking for a new ski'
I am currently using a Connely F3 Concept. I have found that it holds the turns very well. I am not a very good skier and I tend to ride flat across the wake sometimes, I have not had a problem with the slap either when I am edging or riding flat. I usually ride at either 28 or 30 mph and I'm 165 lbs. The O'brien ski's I've tried in the past seem to give me the slap your talking about.

Check out the HO Rival series. While it gets squirrelly at excess of 32mph it's great for getting up, rough water and smooth turns. Even behind a V-drive it crosses the wake very smoothly.
