2020 Sept Pic & Vid Thread

Some footage from our time on the water yesterday.

Nice vid! What speed are you running?

Reason I ask is it looks like you’re really having to stand hard on the gas pedal (aka left foot) to keep the push. Maybe take it down .5 mph and see if it’s more comfortable so you can focus more on turns and such. As you progress with turns you’ll start getting a feel for pumping the board to get back in the pocket, and can speed it back up. Just a thought...

Speed was 10.8 (paddle wheel). When I got to 10.4 in the last the wave was steeper but felt more mushy or not as firm. Kind of like I was just sinking into it. I’ve tried 11.4 as well the other day and it seemed to also have less push. Yea I’m having to press really hard on my front foot regardless of board used. I’m not sure how many more trips I’ll get on the lake this year but I will try 10.4 again and see how it is. I’m going to add another 500 lbs via lead bags next year to hopefully help along with losing some weight. I can feel push but I have to work very hard at it and my leg catches on fire lol.

Ok for some reason it looked faster to me, but I’m gps speed vs paddle wheel so not sure if there is much (if any) difference.

I just watched the video again, your foot placement looks good, maybe more bending of the knees and less at the waist if that makes sense (trying to keep your torso upright).

TBH I need to verify my speedo is accurate using my phone. You're not the first person to say it looked fast. Could be the 60 fps making it seem that way being smoother video but idk. I verified it up to wakeboarding speeds when I had my triducer swapped out last year. Perhaps I need to tweak the settings some as I think I can adjust it small increments if it's off.

I also think i'm going to swap out my 540 midships and put the stock 1k rear bags in their place before I add lead and see how that looks.

Yea I see what you mean about my stance. I'll try and remember next time. Thank you!

On Saturday as usual we were in the water before the sun came up with all the fishermen in hopes to enjoy the “golden hour”.....well the fog didn’t lift until 9:15 so for 2 hours and 15 mins this was our view LOL

It was still a beautiful morning and it was actually like glass until 11:30!!

HAHAHA! Ya very true! Thanks for fixing that!

Ya it really did make for a relaxing morning. We just listened to music and hung out is some "No Wake" zones letting the fishermen navigate the fog.
