    Freestyle Maxx Overhaul! ft. ET1107

    So, just finished up the Tray. If you didnt know: - The MAXX Hull = Flawless - The MAXX Tray = below par for anyone with a foot bigger than size 8 I started by glassing in a wedge style foothold almost like a cross between a ninja and non-ninja rickter foothold. I trimmed it up and put a layer...

    Freestyle Maxx Overhaul! ft. ET1107

    Hey guys, you might remember my initial build back last year from this thread: http://www.x-h2o.com/index.php?threads/2016-maxx-w-tpe-build.172400/ But now, its Yellow! In the last year I did a total 9.8 hours on the hull. Pretty poor, i know. Long story short, I sold my TPE to move on to...

    Freestyle 2016 MAXX w/ TPE Build

    Sorry I've been a little slack on the footage, so here is an update! Ive taken the ski out around 5 times and done roughly 5 hours on it. This ski is more and more fun each time I ride. Considering its my first even flatwater ski it is still a huge learning curve but I'm having fun. Please take...

    Ride 2: So this thing becomes more fun every time i touch it. I managed to no wake flip it, and start to do 3 flips in a row. Half my battle is just the setup wake, but other than that I'm having loads of fun! Ill upload some footage soon.

    Thanks Adz! By the looks of your photo your LSP looks awesome too, good motor choice! Hey SkiPro, the tank is actually 7.5L (Go Kart Tank). Dave from 701 Industries makes a huge range of tank straps! I pulled that straight off his website. If he doesn't have the strap you need you're not...

    Freestyle 2016 MAXX w/ TPE Build

    FIRST RIDE (Run in and Tune). We took the ski down fir its first ride to a local spot that’s pretty shallow so no intensions in doing any tricks, just seeing how the 50mm maxx carbs went with the 964. We have a spare set of 46’s at home so if it doesn’t work out we always have a backup plan...

    The build is finally done. Overall, the ski was a dream to build. Honestly everything lined up perfect. No heavy modification for any parts. I am stoked on the build and cant wait to ride it. I would just like to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who helped me throughout the build, firstly Dad...

    We honestly anticipated the chinpad/pole installation to be harder than it was. Once again maxx’s holes on the pole to chinpad line straight up. Only grinding required is where the chin pad was hitting the trim cable. And note, the Maxx pole tubes and rickter breather tubes together are a tight...

    The engine bay came out really well. Topped it off with some 701 Industries tank straps. So clean and so much room to access everything!

    We ended up getting a RRP waterbox due to its very small size in respect to the PFP/TNT waterbox. All the water lines are plumbed up at this point, just have to put a fuel tank in and some fuel lines and we can hear it!

    Dads most exiting part of the build in his eyes is his custom coupler cover that he made by using a wave raider/wave venture coupler cover and chopping it so it sits on the midshaft housing and looks clean. I will admit it looks pretty good just not to him ;)

    I was worried about ripping the pole off because compared to my rickter the maxx hull looks like thinner glass around the pole bracket so my good friend Jas generously made me a stainless plate that reinforced the pole bracket and hood hooks. He is also making me a plate that adapts the FRI...

    I received my TNT v2 pipe and it fits in the engine bay with miles of room to spare. A previous build thread stating that their PFP didn’t fit is pretty hard to believe when seeing how much clearance the TNT pipe has. I will admit the TNT waterbox does not fit though, so it will be modified to fit.
