I just read all the threads and the waterski mag online article about the tournament. I'm shocked. Thoughts?

RE: Dr. Jim Controversy
Gotta wonder if it is a setup to draw more attention to the sport? Seems so crazy...Comment

RE: Dr. Jim Controversy
Let's think about this:
1. Guy comes out of nowhere
2. Gets huge publicity from everyone
3. Gets huge interview in WS mag
4. Has no pro career to ruin
5. Has pro event at his house, IN WISCONSIN, and everyone is cool with it (????????), unproven ground completely
6. Has huge controversy in tourney
This seems really like a scam to draw attention to the sport. Am I being too much of a devils advocate? Conspiracy theory bells are ringing loud and clear for me.Comment

RE: Dr. Jim Controversy
That is bizarre. The bouys moved 2 feet? IMO, that would really mess with your timing, unless he had been practicing like that.
Can anyone get any info off the Malibu Open website?2000 Air NautiqueComment

Jim will not be skiing today, Saturday, according to Schnitz's site.Comment

Why in the heck would he do this? Successful, obviously has money, what is the point? Suppose he did well and nobody noticed his alterable course, how in the world do you sit back and revel in your success knowing you cheated? This guy has some serious issues.2018 200 Team H6

He should be stripped of all records he may hold and he should never be allowed to compete in a sanctioned competetion EVER AGAIN.Life is Short, Live it!

I was actually there to see the boarders on Saturday and everyone was very hush hush about it. It was a huge thing at the event.
On Friday is when it was supposed to have happened, during the qualifying rounds.
I guess that if the jump course buoys weren't out as a reference point, you really would have trouble noticing it. So people think maybe he thought he could get away with it and nobody would notice. I don't know what to think at all, the place he built is beautiful. 25 deep all the way, 40 on each end. He sunk a plane on one end to scuba and snorkel too. The whole thing is a sandy beach with special plants he had flown in special, the water is crystal blue without any chemicals. Seriously a nice pad on the end of it.
I've got a few pics of the event, some mine, some from others that were there.

ThanksComment

Interesting that he tried to pull this off. It will be interesting to see his future in the skiing community if any................
