Name: 2025 Connelly V w/ Shadow ARTP
SKU: 78461

The V is the older brother to its carbon counterpart; he's been around; he knows what going on and likes things a little easier now. A full fibreglass layup is smoother and softer underfoot and out of turns than its carbon-infused counterpart. A Closed Cell PU Core allows the V to be stronger and more durable while also staying more forgiving out of turns. With its slightly wider forebody and mid, the V keeps stable underfoot, but thanks to its tapered tail, it keeps aggressive through and edge where you want it, while the stepped base creates greater water flow overall, as well as providing grip on edge. Finished with a smooth speed base, the V will always feel fast when you want it, across the wake and pulling out of those turns. The V is the ski that will allow you to go all day, wake up the next morning and do it all again!

The Shadow is the boot with comfort and freedom at the forefront of their mind, allowing for plenty of control from boot to ski. With a lycra toe and heel wrap, the Shadow provides a snug fit, but combine it with the plush EVA footbed, and you get a complete and comfortable package around your foot. Connelly produced their signature superlight baseplate to reduce weight so that you can maximise your performance with less weight underneath your foot and with a shorter cuff for added freedom.

Waterski Features

Rocker

Flat Spot - Underneath your front foot gives you comfort and stability while also propping you up higher on a platform for control throughout your entire motion from cut to turn.
Continuous Rocker - Through the tip and tail allows the ski to always provide a constant level of speed across the wash and allows for a smooth, comfortable turn, drive through the wash, while still having the ability to easily keep that speed into your leading edge.

Flex

Flex Rating(1=Soft, 10=Stiff) - 7/10

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

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 provides 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

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, giving you the ability to solely focus 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 allows for a greater volume of water flow that also acts to displace more water and increase speed.
