As Jim said I have been busy with friends over from SA doing track days at our local circuit, But I am back on it now! I have given it a nose job , At first I was thinking it had not helped the looks of the ski but now it is growing on me. I have added an air craft style fixed bulkhead...

It is a 701 ported, B pipe , Head, Machined flywheel, Stock W/B , stock carbs. stock pump, solas 13/17. Can anyone tell me what is a typical angle for the tilt nozzle when tilted up for a flat water back flip ? :thinking:

It was only the hood! I do have a hose but the pool is right there. Lol:Thinkingof_:

I used epoxy mixed with colloidal silica with finely chopped up fibres mixed in to hold the battery tray and clips. The new ski went very well with minor electrical problems , I am sure now it would flat water back flip plate to plate with the 701 if the right person was on board!! I was...

The latest mod on the footholds ........ Getting there! I obviously intend to turf the rear and bond line properly after painting. Any ideas on designs, We found a paint supply shop here in Pattaya that stocks all the Leary colours inc photo chromatic etc :smokin: Engine bay pics, almost enough...

Sorry no engine bay pics yet , I forgot to take any before it got dark! We shortened the pole 3" , Modded the foot holds to be more ankle friendly , But did not move them forward yet as not sure if they need it. We tested with a 3" longer ride plate but it handles better with the short one...

Yamaslut, You would not get any girl like these , you must be referring to the ones you have to pay for in the bars. I would ask you to be a bit more respectful in future. Nick

Well it rides very light , It needs some small mods to 'Dial it in' ! The rear of the hull took in some water which we drained after riding, A light pressurisation and a soapy water spray soon found the problem areas. There was one small leak on the rear bond line, And the fuel cells are not...

Sorry Maxxx I only just noticed your message , Did you come down? I am testing the hull tomorrow! Give me a call next time you come to Pattaya. Nick

The tanks hold 6 liters the right hand one that feed the carbs has a model helicopter style clunk weighted internal pipe that falls to wherever the fuel is so I will be able to use the fuel right down to empty without gulping air. It weighs in at 92.5 kgs ready to ride 1.5 ltrs of fuel and...

I supose a bit squirley is what I want for free style?? Lol. we will see very soon ! Battery tray , ride plate done ( 328 grames !) foot holds coming.... Lots of work on those! Took a mold off another ski, Modded it made foot holds, modded again temporarily fitted (second pic) , another...

Weigh in update. Fully assembled running.....less footholds , Turf, Hood tie down strap and ride plate 90.8 kgs I want to do some testing and possible variations on layup etc but after that the hulls will be for sale as a kit or built up ready for SJ parts to be fitted. I intend to make a...

Hi Waternut, Do you know why Highroller customs website has been off for weeks? Also do you know anyone who has finished their stunt hull build........Whats it like?? I am very interested to hear how it goes with a 701 motor. Nick

Keep asking Matt. thats what the forum is all about ........We are all learning loads!!

I used to have a crash repair business in the UK ,I sold it and am now semi retired , Its great having so much time to do a project ski without having to break off to go to work! I am very lucky. I wish there were more people in Thailand interested in Jet skiing to go skiing with though! There...

Has anyone finished a build of a stunt hull ? Maybe I missed it, I am very interested to hear how it handles and performs with a 701 motor. Also does it ride very different being so short ? What is the ready to ride weight?

Cool video! I must have watched it hundreds of times, We even got a hooters tape to put on in the van on the way down to jet ski!! I still have a copy but not in good condition.

Joined! I used a mix of micro balloons for volume and colloidal silica for thick viscosity in the resin together with two layers of 200 gram mat to do the joining. Tomorrow will be the big weigh in for the hull without hood. The hood was laid up and vacuumed today. I decided to go the foam...

Hi super jet , I have shortened the lower hull by 8" at the rear and sectioned it by 4" in the centre. Also as you can see I cut it both sides length ways and widened it 0.5" at the rear each side widening to 1.5" at the front. I also added some more width by adding built in sponsons. So the...
