who on here reckons that it would be a good idea, if local shops had put together sliders that you can buy?

dakid 04-17-2007 9:35 PM

it's a great idea! so great that someone's doing it already...nationwide, mind you!

donkeypunch 04-18-2007 8:39 AM

Ethan... are you kidding!?? Think really hard.

dabell 04-18-2007 9:18 AM

Paul, I was about to say something similar. LOL <BR> <BR>Ethan, try thinking outside the box for a little while. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/crazy.gif" border=0>

David, I'm gonna have to say it was pretty much straight forward, still inside the box! Sweet boat in your profile though, only brand I've not ridden behind! Well, and Epic.

dabell 04-18-2007 9:46 AM

Paul, You're probably right on the box thing but thinking would be key <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/rofl.gif" border=0>. <BR> <BR>We just bought the boat last May and love it. The dealership has also been great and always there when we call or show up at their shop. Very happy so far...

the only problem i could see with the build your own slider kit, is that lake bottoms and conditions are so different from place to place, that it would be nearly impossible to build a kit that could be universal without sacrificing the quality

Thought everyone might be interested in this: <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/RAVE-Wakeboard-SLIDER-RAIL-24-Inflatable-USED-ONCE_W0QQitemZ290106465292QQihZ019QQcategoryZ10697 8QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/RAVE-Wakeboard-SLIDER-RAIL-24-Inflatable-USED-ONCE_W0QQitemZ290106465292QQihZ019QQcategoryZ10697 8QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a>

Ethan, you're okay and entitled to a brain fart once in awhile. <img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/clipart/biggrin.gif" border=0> <BR> <BR>Edited for spelling <BR> <BR>(Message edited by dabell on April 18, 2007)

David, what do you think about that slider on wake world.. is it to short.. whats your opinion on the inflatables

stwake 04-18-2007 12:25 PM

on ebay.. not wake world.. brain fart number 2 (im pushing the limit)

dabell 04-18-2007 12:26 PM

Ethan, I wish I could provide a comment for you but I don't do sliders. They hurt too much when you fall on them and I was also trying to help everyone out since I found the ebay link. Sorry

wakeviolater 04-18-2007 12:39 PM

I have been building rails for years, and would be interested in quoting people. Tell me what you want and I'll provide you a quote.

malibuboarder75 04-18-2007 1:28 PM

Inflatables are crap.
