f_inscreenname 10-14-2012 09:48 PM

What a rush, that's got to be addictive. Nice driving looks like that boats CG is perfect.

Too Stroked 10-15-2012 06:19 AM

Sweet! Now I remember why I'm too old for that stuff.

kreed 10-15-2012 06:29 AM

Great vid....whats your average speed and how rough was the water? Looks like you were really movin!

TeamSaris 10-15-2012 09:39 AM

Thanks fellas!
Running high 60s in the real rough spots, low 70s between the pins.
It was 4-6 with some big holes that day, rough as sh!t!
We had zero ballast up front, was flighty on the beach side.

Remember when your dad used to chart how tall you were (as you grew) on the side of the refrigerator? Maybe you should start doing it again - so you can see how much shorter you get after each race.

:lolhit:

TeamSaris 10-15-2012 07:58 PM

I did one long pull up as long as my arms would hold me the next week, felt great to de-compress

bonesmalon 10-15-2012 08:47 PM

What's moving at the trailing edge of the boat?.. It looks like a snocross roost flap??

TeamSaris 10-15-2012 08:50 PM

Its an air outet vent, getting air out of your engine compartment is as important as getting it in

TeamSaris 10-15-2012 08:51 PM

BTW...the throttleman is 56 and going strong!

So am I, but he must not have destroyed both knees skiing bumps the size of VW's in Vermont (on 208's) for way too many years when I was younger. And yes, alcohol was involved.

TeamSaris 10-16-2012 06:56 PM

Actually, he lived in Jackson Hole for two years doing just that...on 201s lol
