Hell yeah!! I'm ready to slash so nice surf this weekend.
Braaapppp!!!
I finally grew a set and started to try some BF,s yesterday. Man, it was fun.
No video,I even have a gopro but they really were not even close enough to record. It was a bit choppy so my slide to BF was sparatic due to the hook up. Some felt really good while others, not so much.
But I feel as i had good form after 4 years of reading 'how to back flip". I concenetrated more on that than anything.
Once I get bored with the baby step slide back flop I will try it off the set up wake and get some video.
And to all that is on the fence in trying one, it really doesnt hurt and it is fun as hel!!

Mine has been sunk....twice
Thats my fear. My first attempt was out in front of the cove close to the main channel about 140ft deep. Took on a fair bit of water after rolling it back over.
Then I decided to go back in the cove in front of the dock where it is anywhere from 25ft infront of the dock to 60 ft in the middle of the cove.
At least I will no it wont float down the savanah river to the dam (savanah river starts in front of our cove).

yeah. but it was only <4ft. I was already in the process of dragging it out of the surf on both occasions. both times I was in some rough storm surge and the boat got away from me and started to go down before I could get too it. the first time was a simple dry out. the second required a full teardown. I dont blame the ski, I blame me not riding enough and not being able to handle myself in the conditions I was riding in.
the not riding enough thing has really got me thinking of just getting rid of all my skis.

I have been thinking of removing the versiplugs in the back and get some of the screw out plugs like on sit downs to drain the water.
Might get me a few more seconds just in case. I should have stuffed a pool noodle down the tube of my pole when building and maybe nose foam.

I would keep the versi plugs in there. They do seal when underwater
Scott's Vision got rolled pretty good in rough surf maybe then the versi plugs may of open and close.

You can take them apart and clean them up

So, did you light it on fire?
Just got finished installing the bored nozzle and wiping everything down.
Clean now. Found that lubricating spray works great to remove the sticky crap that gets everywhere from the handle bar grips.
