The Connelly Big Daddy is the ski that everyone talks about, the everyman ski that will bring every skier back to their youth. The wide-body nose format allows for ease out of the water while also providing plenty of stability. A Closed Cell PU Core allows the Concept to be stronger and more durable while also staying more forgiving out of turns. A fibreglass construction allows the ski to have a comfortable and forgiving natural flex, keeping smooth across the wake and stable in those ever-changing conditions. Completed to perfection in the US of A, the Big Daddy has become the perfect way for skiers of any size, shape, and age to jump back on the slalom and get that feel back on the water.
The Connelly Swerve is the definition of convenience in the waterski industry, designed solely for comfort and ease, its the perfect set and forget option. With a lycra toe and heel wrap, the Swerve provides a snug fit, but combine it with the plush EVA footbed, and you get a complete and comfortable package around your foot that can be shared around.

Waterski Features

Rocker

  • Broader Flat Spot – An increased flat spot from the tip of your front foot to the end of your back provides the ultimate stability; you’ll never feel off-balance or uncomfortable on a ski. And if you find yourself sitting too far back on a cut, it will automatically pivot you back to the centre.
  • Subtle Rocker - The tip and tail allow the ski to always provide a constant level of speed and stability across the wash and allow for smooth, comfortable turns.

Flex

  • Flex Rating(1=Soft, 10=Stiff) - 5/10
  • Reactional Glass Flex Sequence - Works in tandem with the C.A.P.T tech; it is a softer flex profile that will flex and shape as you choose to move, giving you the ultimate control, all with absolute comfort.

Core

  • Closed Cell PU Core – The most well-known core in waterskiing, with a tighter knit construction to reduce weight while remaining durable and providing a slightly softer feel meaning you can ski for longer, feeling less tired, while also getting more flex into turns and less rebound when crossing the wash

Laminates

  • Fibreglass Laminates – The most forgiving top layer you can get, a simple fibreglass laminate allows the ski to provide a comfortable flex and smooth arcing turns.

Shape

  • Wide Profile - The highest volume ski on the market creates the ultimate water disruption and comfort for any big guy, creating easy deep water starts and effortless turns
  • Traditional Angled Bevel - A traditional angled bevel throughout the whole ski keeps the motion from edge to turns comfortable and stable, reducing that locked-in feel across the wash, even when skiing at a slower speed.
  • C.A.P.T. (Connelly Advanced Profile Technology) - The original profiled construction, allowing skis to reduce weight and specifically tailor a flex pattern to various points in the ski

Concave

  • C.A.T (Connelly Tracking System) - A centre channel in the centre of the ski allows for directed water flow, creating stability and ease to pivot into your leading edge at slower speeds
  • Tunnel Concave - The most traditional of shapes, great for entry-level skiers for its ability to stay straight when needed, meaning you can back it off and comfortably sit behind the boat. Despite this, it will perform and get on edge when you want the response.

Other Features:

  • Polished Base – All about promoting greater water flow across the base of the ski to ultimately reduce drag
  • Aluminium Fixed Drop-In Fin
  • Made in the USA, cause Merica'

              Beautiful and Sturdy
              Color: Texture Grey, Size: 25x30, Color: Texture Grey, Size: 25x30
              The cabinet relatively high quality and sturdy. Assembly was not difficult, it took less than an hour, and the color is beautiful and exactly as pictured. The soft close doors are such a big bonus as I tend to accidentally slam doors shut so these doors are me-proof. It arrived in well insulated packaging, there were no missing parts, and the instructions were not difficult to decipher. However, I do have a few items that bothered me enough to deduct a star from the rating 1) The wall mounting system, has predrilled holes that are not the standard 16 inch apart per house's studs. The mounting hardware was subpar and we ended up procuring more sturdy mounting hardware. The cabinet is fairly heavy when it's empty so we wanted to ensure adequate support. The cost of the cabinet is higher than many others I looked and would have liked better mounting hardware - minus one star 2) I wish I had paid closer attention to the shelf heights as the clearance from the middle shelf to the top shelf when it's in the top shelf is in the highest position (top shelf is the only shelf that can be moved) was not tall enough to hold my large industrial size shampoo and conditioner bottles so storage was a little disappointing but I consider it my mistake for not measuring before purchasing - no rating deduction 3) We tried multiple configurations to try and get the doors to perfectly align and could not make it happen. Alignment was disappointing but again I am going to blame that on operator error - no rating deduction Overall, it is a nice cabinet and works well and looks good. I would absolutely recommend.

              Lovely cabinet but needs time to put together!
              Color: White, Size: 23x29
              The overall cabinet is what I was looking for. Very sturdy and good looking. The main problem my husband had was with the directions to put it together. The pictures were hard to see and the majority of written directions were hard to understand. Definitely took longer to put together than should have taken. But when it was completed and hung, I have to say I love it. Be prepared to have patience and enough time set aside to put it together.

              Solid cabinet; all aligns well
              Color: White-1927, Size: 19x27
              Amazon declined my first buy/ship if this cabinet as it was damaged when it reached Amazon. That was fine, but I still had to go thru ‘return’ process of Amazons, w/o a product to return; so I used their ‘chat feature’ to explain—went smoothly, and they secured the replacement for me; I just need to check latest bill to be sure I was only charged once. OK, now onto the cabinet: Solid materials (for MDF-which I generally avoid), and assembled + installed in just 1hr. Btw, I add ‘glue’ the the provided 8 wood dowels used for assembly. The doors hinge adjustments are easy to align doors for final finish. While this cabinet ‘hangs’ on its cleat, I did add one screw to the inside-bottom of cabinet to ensure no one inadvertently may ‘lift’ the cabinet off its cleat. This is rock solid secured to me wall above toilet for great extra storage in the kids’ bath! Overall, a good buy; but did expect it to be cheaper price considering MDF material and made in China. I look for country of origin now and try to buy from US friendly countries. Good luck, Mark in NY.

              Very impressive
              Color: Navy Blue, Size: 23x29
              I've had a lot of experience with modern furniture that you have to put together. Most of it, I worry about the durability of the product. Most is put together with repurposed particle board. So it's heavy and I would think not durable - especially in a damp environment. Saying that, I was very impressed with this product. My experience with the product to this point has been the best of those type of products. It shipped very well...everything in place and neatly packed. The engineered wood (resembles plastic) seems solid, water resistant at a minimum, and scratch resistant. The instructions provided - while the product was easy to assemble - were amongst the clearest I've seen from such a product. What impressed me the most was the thought behind the design of this product. The hinges are perfect for the product. The doors can be easily removed by pushing a button on the hinge. The holes on the boards were perfectly drilled - so much so that I didn't have to pound any board to put them together. The back wasn't nailed on and the slot used for the backing was spot on. If I had to choose negatives (and I'm really nit-picking because this is really designed that well) it was that the shelf ends up being a bit loose and I would have liked the mounting board to match the width of the slot it was being used to fill. Both can be fixed at the house by home products and screws. I was so impressed that I would go and buy another product from this manufacturer (and look for the manufacturer by name). IT is that good.

              Great looking, nice quality
              Color: Black, Size: 23x29
              There is some assemble required. if your not ready to assemble this product may not be for you. the machining was spot on, all parts went together as they should.
