Tha_Grouch Active member Nov 20, 2007 #7 always wondered when this was gonna happen. But I don't see a huge market for it. Sick none the less.

J JPOB Member Nov 20, 2007 #8 those are sweet, but i feel like it'd hurt your toes/shins if you did any grabs that involved crossing your skis

C chewy15 Member Nov 20, 2007 #13 its all about the bindings. skis are obviously important but without good bindings your done
S styl.tweakit Member Nov 20, 2007 #14 they are reverse cambered and rockered, so tois quite tricky to catch an "edge" on water skis
VT_scratch Active member Nov 20, 2007 #19 you guys should check out stero skis. twin tip water skis like that so sick
P Poomba Member Nov 20, 2007 #20 No seriously. There was a thread not to long ago where someone mounted up some water skis for fun on heavy pow days.

wilkesyachtingco Active member Nov 20, 2007 #22 coming off a ramp traveling in pretty much the same direction as the boat has got to be a lot different than coming across the wake... lots less edge catching involved... although that is still nuts.

RileySnyderPhoto Member Nov 21, 2007 #25 If I were a waterskier, I would get these. I prefer to wakesurf though.
Literature Active member Nov 21, 2007 #26 McConkey. Damn, that was in Focused, it isn't that old! I want a pair of these. Wow.
J JSRacing Member Nov 21, 2007 #27 Those things are sick. I am going to buy a pair. I wonder if you can get big air off the wake behind a boat like a wakeboard does?
