Golden Fishery

105. Bad weather? good weather!

After Shaq and the sea monster came, they scratched their heads when they saw the warehouse that was thrown away, and asked Qin Shiou to discuss how to fix it.

Qin Shiou meant that it was enough to find someone to tinker with. Shake said, "We can do this kind of work by ourselves. Later, I will go to the town to find some boards and tools, and the four of us will be able to finish it soon."

As a result, when Shaq went to town to buy repair planks and tools, Qin Shiou saw a small boat appearing in the ocean not far away, and several people were riding on the skateboards and shouting for water skiing.

Qin Shiou was surprised and asked, "Is water skiing possible in this weather? How dangerous is it?"

Nelson said with a smile: "No problem, BOSS, this weather is the best for water skiing, in fact. You see, the sky is clear, the sun is very warm, and the sea breeze is not too strong, just enough to blow up a wall of water of four or five meters, no There's going to be mad dog waves and stuff like that, and it's a good time for water skiing."

Qin Shiou hasn't skied through the water yet. He only saw a bunch of handsome guys play cool with this thing in the movie. Now that the opportunity is in front of them, how could they let it go? With a wave of his hand, he said, "Nielsen, can you ski? Let's go play too."

"Do you have a water ski? Or a surfboard?" Nelson looked at Qin Shiou amusingly. Sometimes he felt that the boss was like a child, and he thought about it.

Qin Shiou took out his wallet, shook it, and said, "I don't have a water ski or a surfboard, but I have a credit card!"

There are water skis in town, Qin Shiou and Nelson drove over, and the boss said when they came in: "If you buy water skis, I have jumping skis, slalom skis, trick skis, wake skis, kneeling boards, etc. All kinds of water skis are made of vintage wood, fiberglass, foamed plastic and light metal, Qin, which one do you choose?"

"If you want to buy surfboards, I have longboards, shortboards, gunboards, softboards and floating raft boards, but the texture is only foam board. Which one do you want to buy?"

Qin Shiou smiled and said, "You're so quick to respond. Maybe I'm here to ask for directions? Are you sure we're here to buy water skis and surfboards?"

The boss laughed and said: "This weather is the golden weather for water skiing, you won't miss this opportunity, will you? As for asking for directions? Don't make fun of me, buddy, just say goodbye to the town with such big sesame seeds, you still use Ask me for directions?"

Qin Shiou looked at it. Water skis are water skis. Generally, they are the five types that the boss said. Each type has its own function, and the length and width are different.

The standard board is generally made of wood or fiberglass, with a length of 1.7 to 1.8 meters and a width of 15 cm to 18 cm.

When I watched it on TV or movies before, Qin Shiou felt that the water ski was just two boards, but only when I saw it up close did I know it wasn't. There were fixed rubber shoes on it, the front end was slightly raised, and there was a keel at the bottom, which could improve the sliding ability. stability.

Qin Shiou asked the boss to introduce, and the latter began to sell:

"I recommend you to buy the fiberglass texture for water skis, which is the strongest, not afraid of sea water, and the price is moderate. If you choose a brand, there are Blackbird and Buffalo, which are the two most famous brands in Canada. The quality is absolutely excellent. Prices are between $400 and $1,000."

"Of course, if you like retro style, you must choose wood planks, here I recommend you 'Mr. Carson brand', I think you guessed it, haha, these wood planks are made by me, the quality is no problem, they are all good The maple wood has been repeatedly lacquered and waxed, and the price is cheap, basically less than 200 yuan."

Jumping sled, slalom, figure sled, wake sled, kneeling board,

These five types of water skis each have their own functions. Qin Shiou was not short of money, so he directly asked for a set of water buffalo boards. This board is of the most reliable quality and is a special choice for senior water skiers.

"Do you have a small one here?" Qin Shiou asked after buying it, "I have four children at home, and I have to buy a set for them."

If the customer is God, then in Carson's eyes, Qin Shiou is the God who loves him the most, and the water sled of the Buffalo brand is not cheap:

The jumping sled that Qin Shiou chose is made of carbon fiber material. Carson has only one set here, and the price is 3,400 Canadian dollars. The remaining four kinds of water skis are made of fiberglass, and the price is much lower. The slalom sled is 900 yuan, the figure sled is 700 yuan, and the wake sled and kneeling board are both 600 yuan.

The jumping ski is the most expensive among the water skis. Its design is convenient for the water skier's acceleration and stability on the water surface and in the air. It is very suitable for beginners, who are prone to slip into the water and hit the water ski, so use precious carbon fiber. Texture, the water ski is strong, tough and not hurtful.

Hearing Qin Shiou's words, Carson scratched his head and said, "There are also small ones, but they are only made of wood, and I sit on them myself. It only costs 850 yuan for a set, and I can sell it for you to save a fraction, 800 yuan. "

Now the economy is sluggish, business is not good, Farewell Island is not a tourist attraction, and the business of Carson's shop is not good, so he has no brand water skis for children, because old fishermen can make small water skis, so there is no need to buy them.

Qin Shiou nodded and said, "Okay, give me four sets."

Carson almost choked on his saliva, Nima, you are a real tycoon, if only you could meet such customers every day? However, he did not do business with his conscience, and explained: "You can just buy one set, and let the children take turns to play, and you don't need to buy four sets."

Qin Shiou thought about it, yes, just buy a set, and I don't know if Boris and the four like it.

When you buy a water ski, it is a surfboard. The first surfboard used can reach five meters in length and five or sixty kilograms in weight.

After the Second World War, the development of science and technology appeared foam plastic board. This board is lighter in weight, better buoyancy, more solid and durable, and more plastic than wooden boards, so it replaced the wooden boards and occupied the market.

Now the shape of the surfboard has also been improved, and the length has been greatly reduced, generally not exceeding three meters.

Qin Shiou also bought a set of five boards, also of the Buffalo brand. This is a well-known manufacturer of marine tools in North America. The things they make are extraordinarily user-friendly. Although the price is higher, a set costs nearly 4,000 yuan. value for money.

The Buffalo surfboard is light and flat, with an ingenious design, slightly narrower at the front and rear ends, and a stabilizing tail fin at the bottom of the rear. In addition, in order to increase the friction, the manufacturer also coats a waxy outer film and carbon particles on the board surface, which is unmatched by artificial boards.

A set of water skis is 5,600 yuan, a set is 800 yuan, and a surfboard is 3,800 yuan, so the total is 10,200 yuan. Needless to say, the latter 200 yuan has to be erased. Carson directly ordered the number of 10,000 on the POSE machine, and also I gave Qin Shiou two pairs of beach pants and four sets of swimsuits for teenagers.

Back at the fishing ground, Qin Shiou began to prepare. The four children stayed in the living room and watched TV. Qin Shiou called them out, and one of them stuffed a juvenile water sled. The surfboard was universal and threw it on the beach. Water skiing?"

The four children shook their heads in frustration, Qin Shiou laughed and said, "I can't either, then let's learn together."

After Shaq and the sea monster came back, they were all masters of water skiing, and Qin Shiou wouldn't let them repair the roof.

Nelson was specially trained when he was in the emergency response special forces, because the special forces often had to land on the beach and hide behind enemy lines, and often used water skis, so his skills must not be said.

Formally speaking, surfing requires the athlete to lie prone or kneel on the surfboard and paddle to a place with suitable waves as the starting point.

But it was a waste of time. Nelson just wanted to show off this extreme sport, so he let Shaq drive a motorboat three or four hundred meters into the ocean to find a suitable wave crest. He stepped on a gun board and went into the water. , without using the power of the motorboat, it starts to slide by the water potential.

The sea monster explained to them: "The gun plate is generally thin and narrow, and it is specially designed for use in high winds and waves, especially in places such as Hawaii, Tofino, British Columbia, Encinitas, California, and Morocco. But if you're not an expert, don't use this stuff wherever you are."

Nelson demonstrated the beauty of surfing to Qin Shiou and others, and saw his vigorous body shuttle between the waves like a dragon, his feet firmly on the surfboard, his legs slightly bent, and his body center of gravity was higher or lower. The surfboard seems to have a life, carrying him all the way along the back of the waves to glide, no matter what!

Little Hughes and others in the distance also discovered the master of Nelson, jumped on the yacht and drove over, applauding and cheering.

Although the waves are big and small, they are helpless to Nelson. He seems to be the dragon king who controls the seven seas. He can always stand on the back of the waves, glide along with the waves, and slowly approach the beach.

The last big wave came up, and he did a backflip!

Of course, it is impossible for someone to step on the surfboard steadily after a backflip on such a powerful wave. It is not a human but a monster. Nelson is trying to fall into the water, but I have to say that this pose is so handsome!
