    Went off Cobalt Coast Sunday and got my friend to take some pics. Still working on my off shore riding though

    To build confidence for endurance racing is riding alot offshore, to me that is key, foot and body placement on the ski is very important also to keep the bow down. look like you did'nt have on any riding shoes, lol,.. you would be surprised how much more comfortable you would have felt with good riding shoes on, also a good habit is to have someone else out riding wit you even if they are just spotting for you, if you fell and got hurt it may be too late for some one to launch a watercraft to get to you so be safe keep up the practise.

      Agreed, definitely not the norm for me to go out on my own but wanted to get some pics. I've tried some shoes in the past not sure if they were actual riding shoes but they do make a difference. Problem is I've had two pairs, they always seem to walk away.... Let me know when your guys are going out.

      I'm also thinking I may need an aftermarket steering but I don't want to lose the stock look.

        Sorry but I have to bust your balls a little.
        Is that a wetsuit that you have on? ........... In Caymen Islands? It must be awful when the water temps drop below 82.
        I would have to get you some blankets to ride with if you ever came up here to visit.lol.

          In one of the photo You can see he is wearing shorts. But it does look like a haft suit in the other photos. Looks like a breezy day too. I would love to go back to Caymans again.

            $8 Starter long sleeve (like under armour) from Walmart. Decent protection from the sun, nothing in terms of protection from cold. I've lived in North Carolina for 5 years and visited my father while he attened University of Waterloo, I love the cold!! Never been to New Hampshire though, may look it up for one of our vacations. My wife is dying to see snow.

            You do realise that would make the ride twice as cold and put me in severe danger of drowning . Blankets and water don't mix.

              Again, I hope you realize that I was only kidding with you.

              Also, tell your wife to watch the snow on TV, its the best way. I did buy a snowmobile to help me enjoy the snow, but hopefully, I'll never get to use it again and I can turn it into a coffee table.lol

                Ye, I didn't take it in anyway.
                I think I'll let her find out for her self . I actually wouldn't mind seeing some again, especially with the summer heat right around the corner.
