Exciting night last night, made my first ever PB - 15off 30mph
Have free skied for a few years, finally hooked up with a bunch of like minded individuals and we put a course in a public lake. After my first attempt I realized it would be much more challenging than videos make it look.
Started on the rec balls (narrow course) then began adding in some reds. Offside I would close off and was looking at the turn ball so was heading straight for it making the passes a frantic scramble. Last night I reminded myself to look at the back of the boat following every turn and made the pass and it was almost easy.
After exiting the course (barely making the gates) I cheered, fist pumped and had a huge grin. My wife was driving so she had no idea and the kids were judging the pass (ages 8, 5 & 3) so nobody really knew what was going on.
Pretty happy for my second set of passes through the course!

Like the others mentioned above...the addiction is "ON"!
I remember my first 15-30 pass and was able to capture it on video. It is one of my favorite skiing memories but like other said it led to an over the top addiction.
Nice skiing!
