great shot.
i hope you don't mind. i added you to the map someone started: https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?ie=U...afd171f6ea2974
not sure exactly where you keep your boat/ride so it's just marked as Paris. your spot can be pinpointed better if you want so people can zoom in to see your home water.
That's a good map Salty. So nobody rides in California !!!???
I replace my mark exaclty where the boat is. Thanks to had me ;)
Thanks ngavdba, we love our boat, it's the biggest (actually longets) of the place where we ride, but there are modern nicer V-drive wakeboard boats, like 2x Malibu wakesetter, 1x MC X-star, 1x MC X-14 (that one makes no Wake) and 1 correct craft V-drive.
We have the funiest boat because of it's age, room, seats arangement, hifi power (tons more sound than every of the other boats), places (10 people in the Saltare), and because of course it's ours ;)
Still need an american look trailer with european accessories on it and we will be cool :)
Hi guys,
I just finished rebuilding vinyl on the rear of my boat.
In fact, 4 years of everyday wakeboarding got it older sooner. I had scratches on rear seats.
So I remove covers, found a friend that makes seats for boats and TV shows sofa etc.
He asked me $200 for the largest sun bath + corner seats + center seat.
The white color is the same but with 26 years less, so it appears a little bit different, whiter, but I'm sure in 1 year with sun, alcool, parties etc. we will not see the difference anymore :)
I did the uncovering and recovering by myself :

Those look really good.
Did you see much gain out of the Edelbrock performer intake?
Thanks Okie Boarder ;)
I don't have an Edelrbock performer intake. Mine is factory. I did test a 600 CFM Edelbrock carburetor, but sold it as I didn't get good results. It was remanufactured and certainly badly remanufactured ! Now I'm on the factory setup with the Holley 800 CFM on the factory intake.
I will test a new timing setup as soon as I get a new starter ordered last last week.
Cheers
Guys,
A friend came yesterday with a drone, enjoy :

That was awesome footage. Makes me want to get a drone.
Wow, there's a lot of things to dodge in that waterway - boats, swimmers, poles, etc. Does it ever open up?
Thanks for comment man ;)
Yesterday was quiet calm, only 2 more boats on water. Imagine on weekends it can be 10 to 15 boats on the same waterway ! We only ride on week, the drone is high flying, the waterway is large enough don't worry. There are not many places to do wakeboarding in France. It's a small country, our rivers are thin, and lakes look like swiming pools for you guys :D (I was at lake Tahoe last summer, and Wow, it looks like a sea !)
I'm pretty happy with that place, it's 10min from my job place, 15min from my house, and the dock is 100m from the speed zone.
Hope any of you visting Paris one day to come and share a beer on my Saltare ;)
Great video, thanks for posting it. No need for chase helicopters to take video anymore. That's so cool.
Were you guys riding a wakeskate?
Absolutely Salty it's a wakeskate.
A video should come tonight with wakeboard
Agreed for the need of helicopters. Some movies are now using drones as well.

Hey Guys,
Second drone video of my Saltare, this time with wakeboards :
https://www.facebook.com/Niklaas.Nik...4696775237135/
Put in HD to enjoy more and more ;)
That was better than the first one! Great footage and editing. Of course the fact that it's a Salt doesn't make me bias in any way.
