Hey SkySkier!

[Wheeler]

I found this thing up in the rafters while cleaning out shit. Have you ever seen one?

Looks like an idea that was ahead of it's time.

Oh, what a minute. I was thinking of the 1930s.

Do you have any old boxes of hundred dollar bills stashed that you don't need?

 

[CJ_Donahue]

Seen one, hell, I learned to ski on one back in the early 80s. They work great. Small kids can ski at idle in the no wake zones.

My Dad put I hooks and a bungie cord when I was 5.Worked great till you dropped a handle and it wrapped around it.

haha, that's what happened when I taught my wife before we were married. Gave her a quick lesson, tossed her in the river and as we were idling up river my friend's wife looked to see if she was ready and she was standing up on the skis.

My dad and uncle taught my two girl cousins with the skis tied together and pulling them by hand in the local swimming pool. This was back in the mid 60s and they were about 3 and 5.

Yes, after I retired.

I'll take a look and get back with you.

Hey Wheeler
Did you notice that the Dockies are at the docks in Marina Village. I think the Knee boarder is Matt Johnson

Taught some little kids to ski on those, one of whom we pulled by hand across the River Reflactions pool a whole bunch of times before dropping her in the river. Her first ride on the river lasted 20 minutes or so until they finally stopped the boat.

The guy that made them lived in Lakeside 5.

Any word yet?

I'll take a look and get back with you.

 

[Wheeler]

Any word yet?

I was waiting for a wake boat to come through and fuck the people up.

I'm sure glad I had nothing in my mouth when I read this.

That one guy looked like a young Chandler spraying down the girls at Fox's.

Are you wanting to sell it by chance? I think one of those might be a way to get my son with Cerebral Palsy up behind a boat....

It came out of a house I was cleaning up. I'll ask how much they want for it.

The Meade Snake just called me and said he wants it.
I'm waiting to hear back from the owner to see if it's for sale.

Kneeboards! I useta rock those back when my knees still bent.

Because of trainers like that, that connected the skis to the boat, I was deathly afraid of skiing for years. When I was little, about 4 or 5, my dad was trying to tech me how to ski with the kit that tied the skis together and the rope went from the tie to the boat and the handle went to the skis. Well, my Dad's bestfriend that was driving wasn't paying attention enough and ended up dragging me for what felt like an eternity at that age.
