I still have a saucer my dad made almost 50yrs ago. I should bring it out and try it out?
I remember skiing on an old Shark. Not a bad ski for its day.
I'd like to add that we had a homemade carpeted surfboard attached to a rope with a handle to stand up on then roar around on which was a ton of fun but by todays standards Totally unsafe.
Anyone remeber these skiis: http://www.mahaskis.com/history.html
My dad had a Maharaja. Can't remember what happened to it though. It was a beauty!
They were always beautiful skis. I would love to get one for display at the cabin, even though I have never skied on one.
This pdf from that web site is a classic - http://www.mahaskis.com/pdf/Maherajah_1977_Flyer.pdf
Check out the price - $194 - and the hair/mustache on Bob Lapoint....
Also interesting - this is where the discussion first turns to talk of running 38 off... in 1977
If you believe something to be true, it will be - in it's consequences.

Admired them from a distance - not my thing - but interesting..

When i started skiing (1976ish) there were 2 skis you had to have, either a Maha or an EP. The wooden Maha's were gorgeous and turned on a dime and if you cut hard enough they would sing! I wish I had one today!
O'brien and Connelly were not the ones you wanted to be seen on!
197? what? How old are you man![]()
