Just finished reading this thread.
Hmmmm
Had no idea about the sunscreen issues. Never had any stains and we only use the spray on our boat.
We will have to rethink this sunscreen thang. To be honest, as was mentioned in a prior post, kids all apply sunscreen at mother-in-laws house so it does have 20-30 minutes to absorb into their skin.
Spray sunscreen on the boat was really only for reapplication. Maybe I should ban it. Family already is angry that Cheetos is not one of our "approved" boating snacks.
PS--hot sauce is definitely on our boating approved list now!

Doritos also banned.
I let my wife enforce the food and drink bans.(no red drinks, Cheetos and Doritos). It just seems kinder coming from her.
She could sell a pig a ham sandwich.

No pictures just start out slow and do a figure 8 and get the whip going to hit them in the middle ramp and they go flying.

BB, I did figure 8 at like 25 and the hit a bit over 30 before whipping my son through. It's surprising how high a 6'4" 240 pound kid will fly.

Oh I got ya BB.
Another one we call the "wavemaster" is where the Cobalt just does a 360 around the tube with the line fully stretched. If you are good (which I know you are) the tube just stays in place turning with the boat. The waves get huge and then--bam--straighten her out and gun it. You just produced a smiling astronaut.

It's funny.
I try to stay on the topics that the title posts but it is so easy to get side tracked. The other forum I'm on can get heavy handed as the mods step in to keep us on topic.
It's like a free for all here....so fun!
But, I'll try to get back to the title. Sunscreens. This months Consumer reports says the least expensive-- best rated sunscreen and best bang for the buck is Walmart's equate brand. Both spray and lotion. Nothing about testing for stains on our vinyl though!
