This build has been something we have been talking about doing for the past few years. I wont give the whole Idea away just yet. But knowing the Rad Dudes and what we build I’m sure most of you can guess where this is going.

The build started off with one of Taylor Curtis’s old skis. A FR2 that was no stranger to being put in the air!

A ton of things I have never liked about the Rickters. The foot holes put your feet about the same place as a stock super jet. That just wont work!. The hull was off the Steve (Goshen Steve) or Mayhem Motosports for the glass and Carbon!
Foot holds were cut and remounted to gain of 3 inches of width.
Whole tray was cut out and dropped rails thinned to make room for the new widened holds.
Steve also Carbon wrapped the whole engine bay and bulk head.

Steve is the man Just wait for his Freak he is building!

Steve did the tray kinda like the Super Freak style. Low next to the pump so it will have padding there and look flat because there will be no padding over the pump. He did an Unreal job in just 4 Days time!
 
look at you guys doing all this work to my fav rickter hull that came thru the shop! looks good so far but i think you gave away some of your surprise in your pics. needless to say hope you let the personal watercraft crew take it for a spin haha. see you in tona
