36 MPH - Slalom water skiing at top speed

[@worldsport1644]

Awesome video Paul, the location looks amazing!

[@justinque1833]

Everyone always prefers wake boarding or knee boarding, but I prefer going high speed gliding and weaving on the water with Slalom skiing!! It's more difficult to learn, but when you pick it up it gets somewhat addicting haha.

[@graysonadams2485]

There's nothing like raw speeeed!!

[@Spencer_Shultz79]

@2694wr A standard slalom rope is 75ft long. 32off simply means that he has pulled the rope in 32ft making the pass harder.

[@vampov]

wow look at that wake. You don't see that anymore this is one of those rare waterski boats. Awesome.

[@renagadehockey]

the vid is not sped up, just because the boat is going 36 doesnt mean the skier is, some of the pros cross the a at 70mph even though the boat is doing 32 or 36

[@kenmammel7748]

Really nice smooth skiing.

[@lwstruyk]

Nice job. Brings back alot of memories of myself ripping up millers bay at Okoboji. That was before they closed off the bay for boaters to set anchor and party. Oh well. I still have my old Saucier ski hanging in the basement..oh and my O'brien. I think I'll get them out and see if my arms dont fall off after a few good cuts. Ha!

[@tompeckett5443]

Whoever says this isn’t top speed doesn’t know anything about slalom skiing. Once you reach 36 mph you shorten the rope to increase difficulty.

[@vincenasty4654]

Tom Peckett yeah but still you adapt speed too

[@Staggy33]

36-40 is a great slalom speed for me!!! love it

[@kenmammel7748]

36 is this top Slalom ski course speed.

[@darcyduff7920]

Can't beat Sproat Lake water... one of the finest lakes in BC

[@TheBattlestorm]

so when he's moving from one side of the boat to the other...that looks much faster than 36mph. im assuming 36 is the speed of the boat?

[@silmarrr]

You can go faster than the boat....

[@darrynfrost3401]

Yes, 36 is the boat speed. You would have to calculate the distance traveled by the skier to figure out that speed.

[@darnellbrown479]

+paul jager im positive im going 40 and 36 isnt tops. my dad was tought to go 40 when he was my age

[@kenmammel7748]

The AWSA (American water ski Association) has the competitive tournament Slalom ski speed topped out at 36 mph.

[@2694wr]

Great water man and nice skiing i wanna get get into slalom skiing but do not under stand wat you mean by 32 off?!? Could you explain

[@bh8671]

wade robinson 32 off is rope length from the boat. The shorter the rope the harder it is to make the buoys.

[@kenmammel7748]

I counted off about 16 seconds. This run through the slalom course is not sped up video.

[@Thumpr110]

Great run!

[@lightespeed]

Worth noting, only the boat travels at 36mph, the skier will round the buoy at considerably less than that speed & cross the wake considerably, probably, double the speed of the boat, the skier has around double the distance to travel than the boat.

[@supervansteezy]

is this on Sproat Lake?

[@derflyingpwn]

do you work for this company?

[@philf4086]

OK, what happened to the wake?

[@gingersteel]

more like what happened to that music.

[@pauljager2969]

+Arnar Kofi Sorry busted out the guitar, & laid a lead track over top for fun.

[@david-ut1zq]

you have no idea what you are talking about he takes 16 seconds to get through the course. that's the standard time.

[@darnellbrown479]

im 14 and is slaloming at 40mph ok?

[@pauljager2969]

+Darnell Brown Skis are designed for tops 36mph. Get a GPS and see how fast your boat is going

[@birdwiser1]

I know a guy who does passes at 36 on 14 rope for a warm up

[@bh8671]

birdwiser1 you or him are also full of shit or delusional.

[@mychemicalfallutatthedisc4924]

Skiing is fun as shit on glass water, but if you fall it burns like hell.

[@Jez1963UK]

What, even if you have a full wet suit on ?

[@jjswimmer2014]

GLASS i love it

[@birdwiser1]

I know a guy who does 36 mph on a 14 rope for a warm up

[@cpthuntergrant]

haha yeah. hes going super fast when he cuts across the wake.

[@marekurbaniak9395]

36mph what is that 60kmh, fuck I weigh 160 and I have to go atleast 80kmh to cut hard?

[@erucader]

[@nyomanariastini8309]
