    The theory of keeping the skis together is fine but it tends to be to buoyant and hard to keep the back of the ski in the water when getting all lined up/

      Just put on the tail weights like I did...that fixes the problem and everyone gets up first try from a long line. No boom needed.

          I have heard of those. Where do you get them (weights)?

            I got mine at Sun & Ski. They are also on the web.

            Whoever sell HO should be able to get them. Web price should be the same but the shipping is going to be high because of the weight.
