Scarpa Suppression Plate option

[vbarcas00]

Anyone have experience behind a 2007 RLXI with the optional Scarpa Suppression Plate? Does the slalom wake improve even more?

At the risk of going off topic, I would also be interested in knowing how much the SSP helps the wake/spray issues (while barefooting) that were initially reported with the 07's.

Not enough.

Post #6 He didn't like it for Slalom.

Although, given his review, I might try it in preference of the shortline spray, guessing, though, it might create alot of mist.

I ski'd an '04 RLXi with the SSP and it sucked. The guy I was out with barefoots 100% of the time, so it was set up and tweaked for barefooting. I went OTF on my first turn and I never go OTF. (Ok, almost never) The plate does exactly what it's supposed to do, making the table harder and flatter. But that's not what you want for slalom.

Point taken, I won't try it.

BTW - and dude, give credit where it's due (the Dave Matthews quote)
