    Another X-metal water box comparison

    Like an idiot I left the fully charged video camera at home when we went out Wed. On a small motor the throttle response improved slightly. The sound is much deeper in the water compared to the video posted with it completely dry. To be honest at certain RPMs watching from the beach it had...

    Super Jet My wife's SJ

    Yep she's lucky. Even luckier because it looks like my 760 is going in her ski until I find myself a freestyle hull. Damn weak fx-1s.

    Super Jet My wife's SJ

    Just finished getting my wife's 97 RN ready for the season. This ski was purchased as a hull with misc parts from Krissy Hale a little over a year ago. Krissy raced this ski all through 97 and retired it after WF that year; it then sat as a hull stored in Havasu until we bought it. Due to...

    Another X-metal water box comparison

    Ski hasn't hit water with new water box, just finished stuff on it. Should be out riding Wed and will try to get some footage then.

    Another X-metal water box comparison

    Here's my comparison videos as well. Video is taken a few months apart, but the ski (97 RN) hasn't changed mechanically (just paint, foot holds, shortened pole, and turf). It's a 6m6 cased 701 (temp motor for my wife), b-pipe, enhancer, and stock rear exhaust. Both boxes were COMPLETELY...

    how-to turf with no seems.

    I want to say thanks for this thread! It helped so much. Today I finally got some time and did one side of my wife's tray, will do the other side and tray padding tomorrow. I haven't turfed in 2 years, and this is my first time turfing a RN and holds. One small wrinkle, and one very small rip...

    Love the clean boxes! I was drooling when I stumbled across this on their site a few weeks ago.

    foot hold padding question

    Lol, I got the thickness part on top, just not sure how far on the sides I want/need it to go.

    foot hold padding question

    Hmmm, trying to figure out the top padding, should have made it more clear in the first post. I'm sure you guys aren't going all the way around with padding.

    foot hold padding question

    Anybody have actual pictures of the inside of the hold after adding padding and pre-turf. I was looking at some threads and even the turfing with out seams thread doesn't show how far in you guys are adding padding.

    Super Jet X-metal bracket w/ stock RN pole - have some questions...

    Received the X-metal bracket for my wife's RN today. Got it installed tonight and went to put the stock (well shortened) RN pole on and it's hitting the stops on the bracket pretty bad. With some grinding on the pole I can actually attach the bolts now but no way the pole can even move without...

    Just received my second order with Chris. Only took 2 days from when I ordered to get it in Vegas. 61x flywheel looks great and the hood straps the same great kit as always. Also packaged really well.

    Super Jet Quick pole shortening question

    So getting my wife's ski ready for the season and finally got around to the pole. Cutting went smooth and foam popped right out, the cut off part came right out of the bracket in one piece as well. Problem is there was no backing bracket where the rivets went through. I compared the pole to my...

    FX-1 Started my 650 pump swap

    Sorry I hadn't looked in here in days. When you are relocating the holes you have to have access to at least some of the tray. All I did was cut a couple strips of the turf off to have access to the old mounts and room to make new ones. Shouldn't worry about weakening the tray area with the...

    FX-1 Started my 650 pump swap

    Yep, my c75 is from an sxr and cut back.

    FX-1 Started my 650 pump swap

    I ran a normal 16 or 16.5 for a couple months. It performed well with that. I ended up with a skat c75 swirl cut back and pitched from impros. Lots of inexpensive options that work well or you can just go straight to the c75. I heard a 15.5 with kicker hits good, just never tried it myself.
