Radar Water Skis 2016 with Chris Sullivan

October 01, 2016

Radar Vapor 2016
Radar continued pushing the top end of their performance line in 2016 with all new Vapor skis as well as trickle-down updates to the Senate. The Vapor comes in four varieties of differing construction and performance. You can hear more about these in the interview with Chris.
Bent Vee Line
One complaint that water skiers have is that we can only carve so many turns before we’re exhausted. While good conditioning can extend that by a pass or two, modern skis designed to carve hard at top performance do demand a lot from the skier. That is one reason why Radar created their Bent Vee line of skis, including the Butter Knife and Katana. These skis have a radically different design. They are more hourglass-shaped with a very flat profile through the mid-section. They are designed to be easy up, easy riding skis that can still be a lot of fun for riders of all abilities. Chris was really proud of the work Radar did to create this line this year. This new line slots in where the Radar Theory used to reside.
Chris Sullivan
Chris Sullivan has been a great representative for Radar Skis for several years, but recently he has moved on, making this the last interview I will get to have with him at Radar. I want to thank Chris for his openness toward me and toward all of the skiers I have seen him interact with over the years.
