Loving all your videos Jager! I’m finding them very helpful! I just upgraded to my first modern ski, a new HO, I have always been riding on a 1980’s beginner Jobe. Quite the learning curve when getting onto a more advanced ski but I’ll get the hang of it eventually! I’m out here on the mainland of BC, cultus lake.
Sir; I am having trouble slalom deep water start behind a 2005 Seadoo 180 hp Supercharged jetski. 65 yrs, 180 lbs, Full throttle rips handle out of my hands. Could you please recommend an acceleration curve for starting ? Thank You.
I would progress from a very large ski, slow acceleration starts. Find your low drag position and hone it. Then move to whatever ski you like to use. We are using a Radar Butterknife for new-skier longline starts this season. Wiley's has 67" for $150. Fantastic ski for deepwaters.
@@cdrseabee With a toe loop I drag the free leg. Matt started two feet in. Logan is hinged back at the hips. That's his balance position, a bit like a gym row.
That depends if your back foot is in our out. If your back foot is out you most likely are gonna be leaning over the ski until it gets up on plane. If its in you can stay more upright.

The new skis are def a big change. Much faster in the cut. Never been to Cultus - used to ski the Pitt River for a while tho.
I always try to keep my back straight. If I get bent over starting it's a lot of back strain. I just put pressure on my back foot and plow up.
Thanks for all your videos, from the sunny okanagan
I was 12 when I was finally able to figure out how to get up. Drag the back foot until you learn balance. I'm 46 now.
So you put both of the feet on board when trying to standing up??

When taking off is the rear foot in or out of the binding?
Can do either. I used to leave mine out and use as balance. Now I keep it in and push on my back foot and try not to bend over like this guy is doing.

Either. Start with back foot dragging, then slip in. Drag time will be shorter the more you get used to it.
If just learning, yes. You'll drag it until balanced, then slip it in
It would’ve been nice to show some failures, and what people should avoid doing as well.
posture is awful on the second start....keep your back straight
