The Connelly Rocket takes all the knowledge and design principles that went into the flagship C1 and tailors it to suit the recreational skier and handle like a dream at 28-32mph anywhere on the lake and river. With 58 years of history, the Rocket brings together a ski that gives a high-end performance in a balanced setting. Thanks to a wider platform to pair with an altered sidewall height, the ski has the ability to carry a consistent speed across the wash without feeling overbearing while still giving you that tight, controlled turn that is a staple of the bigger, badder brother. Disrupting water flow is critical to the Rocket's smooth feel, even in rougher waters, where the v-tech and hybrid base finish work to disrupt water across the base of the ski rather than through the rail. Finally, exclusive to the Connelly range is the signature VersaTail, providing you with a range of tail options to adapt the ski to your style, whether that is altering handling in the turn or changing feel across the wash. 

Rocker

  • Continuous Rocker - Through the tip and tail allows the ski always to provide a constant level of speed across the wash and allows for a smooth, comfortable turn and drive through the wash while still having the ability to keep that speed into your leading edge easily.
  • Increased Rockerline - Mostly in the tip and tail, allows the DV8 to move from edge to edge with considerable ease.

Flex

  • Flex Rating(1=Soft, 10=Stiff) - 6/10
  • An altered flex pattern bucks the trend and makes the ski softer, working with the overall design of the ski to increase performance.

Core

  • Closed Cell PU Core – The most well-known core in waterskiing, with a tighter knit construction to reduce weight while remaining durable and providing a slightly softer feel meaning you can ski for longer, feeling less tired, while also getting more flex into turns and less rebound when crossing the wash

Laminates

  • Fibreglass Laminates – The most forgiving top layer you can get, a simple fibreglass laminate allows the ski to provide a comfortable flex and smooth arcing turns.

Shape

  • Increased Tip Width - helps to generate speed but gives you a more stable platform to initiate and pull through turns and have more control while doing so.
  • Variable Bevel - A sharper bevel through to the front binding of the ski that transitions to a round bevel in the tail allows the ski provides lift and speed in the nose across the wash while the tail offers suction for tight turns for the apex of your cut or around the buoy
  • C.A.P.T. (Connelly Advanced Profile Technology) - The original profiled construction, allowing skis to reduce weight and specifically tailor a flex pattern to various points in the ski
  • Wider Platform - Designed to allow the ski to perform and handle in the turns at slower ski speeds

Concave

  • Full Edge-to-Edge Concave - a full concave throughout the whole width of the ski creates a fluid motion and greatly supports your cut, allowing you to focus solely on where you want to place the ski.
  • V-Tech - A greater angled V-shaped step that reduces drag and resistance on the water while also providing directed water flow, so now you can get even deeper into those turns without the worry of losing your edge
  • Wider Tunnel - A more stable profile that allows for a greater volume of water flow that also acts to displace more water and increase speed.

Other Features:

  • Versa Tail - The patent-pending feature that is the centrepiece of the DV8, an adjustable tail. This change in tail geometry allows you to change your ski based on your style.
    • VT Tail - The stock Connelly tail shape is designed to give a balanced tail depth across the wash and into turns
    • VS Tail - A square tail shape designed to add lift and support, as well as increase ski speed
    • VR Tail - The round tail shape allows the ski to sit deeper in the water into and through the turn, giving faster turning and fewer tail blowouts
  • Hybrid Base - A polished tip and a micro-textured tail, blending and working together to provide speed across the wash and reduce turn resistance.

Good tape, not very sticky
This worked well. I used this to water proof a camper shell. I had to manually hold it in place because it wasn’t sticky while applying between sheet metal seams.

No adhesive work great for me
We used this on a cord on a medical device. That required no adhesive. It can be removed as needed with no adhesive left behind.

Best heat tape I've found
Size: 20mm X 33m
This is the only tape I purchase for my sublimation crafts, mainly because it just functionally works. The tape is durable and adheres well to the substrate. This tape doesn't leave a residue like other heat tape I've purchased. Easy to use, as the tape dispenser I have for crafting cuts the tape automatically for you when you advance the tape from the dispenser. My dispenser holds 2 rolls at a time, and since I get 4 rolls with my purchase, it is economical.
