SEJust wanted to give some input from Sweden on OffCourse Just wanted to give some input from Sweden since my wife and I now have skied with OffCourse (OC in the rest of the text) mounted on our Malibu Response 340hp from 2005 equipped with PP Stargazer and Z-box. We have the boat based in the Stockholm archipelago with no possiblity to put in a course at our location close to our house. When I first heard of OC a couple of years ago I immediately thought that it would be perfect for archipelago course like skiing after our own boat instead of only doing free skiing. We are both fixed buoy course skiers also and members of a club with a course on a lake. My wife skies into 32mph and I ski into 32off at 34mph (soon old enough for 32mph though..). I have to say that OC lived up to all my high expectations. The best things are actually the new Z-magazines that holds 24 balls each, matching the life of the CO2 cartridge so you reload everyting at the same time. The Z magazines allows you to do 48 turns in a row if you have the space and the stamina, absolutely wonderful! You do need to get the course width right and you do need to learn how to time the start with the boat crew so you get the zero ball were you want it, but that is easily solved after a couple of tries. I really think that this is a great training aid if you don't have access to a normal course where you ski, well done Erik Berghiller!!!

GBThe product quality is top-notch! The product quality is top-notch and most of all, it is really fun! The OffCourse can be used even when the water is pretty rough. You can easily see the splashes and the urgency to turn and go is really there. It is a LOT more like skiing a slalom course than I thought it would be. I can't say enough how incredibly impressed I am with the quality of this device and how it is impacting my slalom skiing. Even if I had access to a slalom course all the time, I think I would want to spend some time in open water taking out the OffCourse. It is that much fun!

GBHave had the Offcourse out twice now… Have had the Offcourse out twice now and REALLY enjoy it! Many of the reviews I’ve read focus on how it compares to a regulation course. My comments are from a different perspective. I like to ski buoys when possible and can make a 32/15 pass, but to me, it’s all about spending 4-5 hours on the water with friends/family. I can drive an hour to go ski the private course and pay $70 for a 15-minute session, but, that’s such a limited portion of the whole experience that boating/skiing offers. The Offcourse offers the ability to “check both boxes”, and ski some buoys while enjoying any lake. The A/B/C modes of the Off-course are genius and m my kids are immediately hooked on graduating from B to A. Now much easier to recruit a driver and spotter 😊 Had a friend and his high school son out, and his son is fairly new to slalom and was absolutely thrilled to bag a C-mode pass. Meanwhile, I’m right where I’ve been at 32/15 whenever I get a chance on a regulation course every couple of years, but, now have the opportunity to focus on improving and making more of the occasional course access. So, in my view, a homerun all the way around!

GBRodics Innovation OffCourse product is… Truly REVOLUTIONARY! Rodics Innovation OffCourse product is a revolutionary product paired with an elegent design and robust build. Beyond that, the functionality is outstanding and the customer service is superb. The bottom line; OffCourse has already improved my skiing and has also increased my motivation and enjoyment of the sport. I highly recommend for any open water / recreational skier in the 15 off to 35 off range at any boat speed. Beyond that, a true tournament skier would likely be more at home on a fixed course.
