New water skis benefit from high technology
If you were a water lover 25 years ago, the “in” sport was water skiing. Skiers everywhere sliced through the calm waters of lakes and rivers and talked about “jumping wakes” and slolom skiing. Water skiing is still popular but in recent years it hasn’t enjoyed the growth in participation that it had in the ’sos. However, people at Outboard Marine Corporation Parts and Accessories, who follow such trends, say that the sport is about to take off once again, stimulated by the growing popularity of active participation sports in America and an economy emerging from a recession. Those who shop for new water skis will find that the skis of today are light-years ahead of the equipment used two decades ago. Advanced ski designs, exotic materials and high-tech manufacturing techniques have produced a variety of water ski models that match the needs and abilities of every skier and skiing family. The hardest choice for a consumer is deciding which water ski is right for her or him. Jim Kedley, OMC marketer, suggests that the water skier solve the problem methodically, asking himself three questions before he buys: 1. Who will use the skis? 2. How often will they be used? 3. What kind of skiing will they be used for? The answers should help determine what to buy. Kedley is quick to point out that for many skiers the most expensive water ski is not always the best. First, some background for those new to the sport — there are

two types of water skis: slolom (single) and pair. A slolum ski has foot binding for each foot and it requires a bit more skill to use than pair skis. < Pair skis have a single binding for each foot. Pair combination skis offer an extra binding on one ski so you can drop the other after you are underway. Presto, your a slolom skier. ;<• The material the ski is made from is the determining factor when it come to price and performance. The least expensive as are usually made from wopd. The best wooden skis are made from ash. Other hardwoods may be used in less expensive skis. Wooden skis have a 90-degree bevel between the edge and the bottom, with a flat bottom surface for good straight-line stability. Kedley says wooden skis are hard to beat for value and perfrmance, especially for beginners and recreational skiers. Next on the list of materials is fiberglass. Fibergalss skis are usually more expensive than wooden skis but tend to last longer and offer added stability on the water. Fiberglass skis can be more flexible and absorb bumps more effectively for a smoother ride and fewer “headers” into the lake. Fiberglass skis also come in stiffer, less forgiving models for advanced and professional skiers. They work much like the stiff suspension of race cars. In both situations the “driver” wants a precise connection with the surface, whether it’s the road or the water. The latest fiberglass skis use composite construction with a foam core and a high-strength
epoxy resin over the fiberglass. These skis may be molded with a tunnel, or concave, bottom for better tracking and bevelled edges for sharper turning. They may take some getting used to, but they are often preferred by advanced skiers for the performance advantages they offer. __ Water skis are either sold as “blanks” without foot bindings or as complete skis with factoryinstalled bindings. Advanced skiers like to install their own bindings which can be custom-fitted to their feet and skiing style. For general family use, however, look for skis with an adjustable binding that will be comfortable for everyone. Crappies are in most lakes Crappies, popular among Northeast Indiana fisherman, are found in virtually every lake in this corner of the state. Yet, information compiled by Department of Natural Resources fishery biologists confirm what many crappie fishermen know already: crappie numbers and sizes vary considerably from lake to lake. In a report prepared by the DNR, information on crappie abundance at 38 Noble County lakes has been summarized. Based on the information, biologists better understand various factors which affect crappie populations and are planning programs to better manage them, including lake renovations where crappies are overabundant. According to the report, crappies are more abundant in shallow, large and turbid lakes than in small, deep, clear lakes. “Crappie lakes” contain more different kinds of fish but often have fewer bluegills and bass. Where abundant, crappies are usually small, less than 9 inches long. In Noble County, crappies are most abundant in Sylvan Lake and Skinner Lake. Small crappies are so numerous at Sylvan Lake, the DNR plans to eradicate them along with excessive carp and suckers this September. Crappies are least abundant in headwater lakes of the Tippecanoe River, including Big, Crooked, Gilbert, Loon and Smalley Lakes. At Loon Lake last year biologists estimated only 227 adult crappies were present. Some crappies, however, were over 13 inches long. The report rates the West Lakes as the best crappie lakes where large crappies are routinely caught.
Duesenburg to be featured at Auburn
It’s “The Year of the Duesenburg” at the 29th annual Auburn-Cord-Duesenberg Festival, held in the revered home of the classics, Auburn, this Labor Day weekend.

Swim for fitness and fun
Plunge into cardiovascular and overall fitness through swimming, one of the most popular sports activities. If you swim at the proper intensity for at least 20 to 30 minutes three times a week, it will help your heart. In addition to the cardiovascular benefits, swimming can: • Help control your weight; • Increase your resistence to fatigue; • Improve your self-image; • Help you relax and sleep better; • Tone your muscles.

When you start swimming, remember not to strain yourself or you may be tempted to quit. Listen to your body. If it takes linger than 10 to 15 minutes for your pulse to slow down after swimming, or if you have difficulty breathing, feel faint or have prolonged weakness, reduce your pace or stop. Each swimming session should begin with a five to 10 minute warm up and end with a five to 10 minute cool down. Begin your warm up by reaching for the ceiling with both hands and then alternating hands. Do head circles and waist twists. Swim two laps slowly to gradually increase your circulation and body temperature. During your cool down at the end of your session, swim at least a couple of Japs slowly to reduce your heart rate and to prevent soreness and cramps. The longest part of your swim should be at least 20 to 30 minutes of exercising at a level called the target heart rate, zone. Your target zone depends on your age and your maximum heart rate. Usually you can determine your maximum heart rate by subtracting your age from 220. Your target zone is 60 to 75 percent of your maximum heart rate, depending on how far you have

A 35-year old, for example would probably have a maximum heart rate of 185 beats per minute and a target zone of 111 to 138. Start your swimming program today.
