    This happen to anyone else? Lol

    was riding ski hard with turns and also pulling alot of weight for tubing and late in the afternoon the ski's steering just stopped working.... sucks when you are in the middle of the lake and you really can only make left turns.... heh.... this is what i saw when i pulled it out of the water....

    P.S. this is no longer a problem since frank fixed it

    the only time I have ever seen this is if the reverse bucket came down at some speed.
