2026 Connelly C1 Course Slalom Waterski – Elite Precision & Custom Tuning | Waterskis.lv
The wait is over. After countless hours of athlete testing, extensive feedback, and years of calculated refinement, Connelly proudly presents the 2026 Connelly C1 Course Waterski. Available now at Waterskis.lv, Europe’s premier pro watersports store, the C1 represents the pinnacle of Connelly’s 58-year legacy of slalom innovation.
The redesigned C1 features a wider tip and wider tunnel, improving balance and efficiency through the wakes. Adjustments to sidewall height in the tip and tail, combined with new flex and rocker patterns, deliver smoother acceleration, stronger edge hold, and more predictable turns at high speeds.
At its core is a low-density, CNC-cut PVC core, paired with a premium 90/10 carbon-to-fiberglass layup. This construction offers explosive response, reduced swing weight, and uncompromising stability—everything elite course skiers demand.
The C1 is equipped with Speed V-Tech, using V-shaped tunnel geometry to break surface tension and increase speed while reducing drag. A wide tunnel and variable bevel design allow the ski to sit cleanly on edge, generating controlled, powerful turns with minimal effort.
Customization is key at this level. The Versatail system allows riders to fine-tune tail behavior to match rope length, speed, and personal skiing style. Depending on ski length, riders receive a comprehensive selection of Versatail blocks for maximum adjustability.
Finished with a hybrid base—polished in the tip for speed and micro-textured in the tail for control—the C1 delivers unmatched consistency from gate pull to buoy exit.
Each ski is handcrafted at the Connelly Factory in Washington State, ensuring premium quality, precision, and attention to detail in every build.
