Have any of you experienced a barefoot boom and, if so, is it worth the expense and effort?
While I will agree that this is an excellent training tool, it might not be worth the expense, unless you have a competition ski boat. Most barefoot booms hook right to the Ski Pylon and are specifically made for competition ski boats. I have seen some models that come with provisions to mount to runabouts however they require mounting permanent bases that may or may not be desirable.
