Nautique boat slider is not the 1st

Skier's Choice did this for 2 years at the Gravity Games circa 2002. Yes it was fully supported by the boat a mobius LSV.(boat actually floated too good we had to weight the *iss out of it) Measured 63'with plexiglass side curtains running that too. I normally wouldn't say anything, but me and others worked very hard on the original idea and SC paid over $30k on the development. (not including boat and trailer)I'm not in the industry anymore, so I can say what I want to. CC is probably going to run down to the patent office, like they did with the towers. OH, Didn't know??? they didn't come up with that idea either!
