A change in tail geometry can mean the difference in a ski performing in perfect rhythm with your personal style. Our patent pending VersaTail technology offers the ability to fine tune the flow of water off the tail of the ski, taking a step beyond the standard fin and binding position adjustments. Skiers can choose from one of three tails, which are all included with the 2021 Connelly DV8 Versatail Waterski. .<\/p>\n<h4><strong>VT Tail Shape<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Our stock tail shape \u2014 designed to offer a balanced tail depth through the turn and across the wake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>VS Tail Shape<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>The square tail provides more support at the tail, keeping the tip down through the turn and generating more speed between the buoys.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>VR Tail Shape<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>The round tail lets the ski sit deeper in the water into the turn, adding control at higher speeds for quicker turns and reduced tail blowouts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>#21 Connelly DV8 Versatail Waterski Construction Features<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>PVC Core<\/li>\n<li>90\/10 Carbon\/Fiberglass Layup<\/li>\n<li>Hybrid Base<\/li>\n<li>Speed V-Tech<\/li>\n<li>Wide Tunnel<\/li>\n<li>Variable Bevel<\/li>\n<li>Connelly Advanced Profile Technology<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Terrain<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Course<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>#21 Connelly DV8 Versatail Waterski Riders Weight Indication<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>65&#8243; \/ Up to 60kg<\/li>\n<li>66&#8243; \/ 60-75kg<\/li>\n<li>67&#8243; \/ 70-85kg<\/li>\n<li>68&#8243; \/ 85kg and Up<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Suggested Maximum Speed<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>54-58kmh<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Rocker<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The DV8 has an increased rocker line, predominantly in the tail, allowing it to move from one edge out to the other much easier<\/p>\n<h4><strong>CAPT Top<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>We have gone with a more subtle top shape, particularly in the tip, to add support and control out of the turn.
