    Custom/Hybrid 1990 SN Superjet Complete Overhaul Refoam Stubby Hull Carbon Pole Etc...

    So balsa wood has extremely high compressive characteristics when sandwiched between a couple layers of fiberglass. It should not swell if I sealed the edges properly (Which I know that I did). I chose this route to make the negative-cutaway stronger underneath the footholds, AND to separate...

    P.S. The paint job looks like crap. I am gonna re-sand everything smooth and start over. I am gonna match the color of the blue turf I have by mixing the gel-coat white with a very little bit of dark blue. AND I am gonna use a spray-gun this time and not a brush. Live and learn I guess...

    SX/SXi/SXi Pro 750 sx pipes

    "Properly" and "low-buck" usually don't go together. That's all I am saying.

    SX/SXi/SXi Pro 750 sx pipes

    Lol... "Low-buck performace"... Keep her stock and running = low-buck performance. You can spend enough just maintaining the engine for "low-buck" (carb rebuilds, new rings+hone, gasket replacement, spark plugs, exhaust hosing, cooling/fuel lines, etc.). Any mod you do will just mess...

    SX/SXi/SXi Pro Pro Intake Manifold Issues -- Help!

    Hey X-members, So I have a 98 SXI Pro that I recently put a new top-end in. While I was disassembling the motor, the intake manifold fell off in two pieces. I ordered up the following intake manifold off of Ebay (I know, not the best idea) and this specific manifold was claimed to fit my...

    To be honest, I have not. It was the most logical location for the exhaust outlet, so I put it there... It should not cavitate the pump however... I will be placing a 'fin' surrounding the front/lower section of the outlet, but its intention is to prevent water from stuffing up my exhaust...

    Custom/Hybrid XS 510 custom build

    8-10 oz prolly... Easily conforms to contours but still provides some substance per layer laid.

    What do you mean by "concept"? Basically I didn't like flipping around onto the hood with the tiny stock siderails. My footing was always awkward and I couldn't set-up my body weight location very easily with them... So, I just went for it and widened them to approximately 3.5 inches using...

    Freestyle 96 rn winter build and nose job

    No it's not... Its just a chemical reaction with the plastic... I highly recommend NOT using Solo cups. You should at least use Dixie paper cups, or pay the extra penny per cup and buy the good ones meant for mixing. The smoke/chemical reaction between the epoxy-resin and plastic cup...

    Freestyle/Freeride boots From Hyperlite?

    They have cheaper ones and other designs without the BOA system (The button-looking thing that you turn to tighten the boots with). The BOA clears my hull (SN SJ) but I don't know about others...
