    Wdk Rip Rebuild. New to me

    My pump to shoe alignment. If I lift the back of the pump up that much the driveshaft touches the hole in the hull. Should I just shim back the shoe?

    My impression was he is more interested in building pro level freestyle skis. But yes about 1 year ago I bought the molds and the plug

    Wdk Rip Rebuild. New to me

    I bought some molds from jeff at WDK. One is the RokR the second is his fx1 pro. I have been working on making a rokr for myself. I have a half dozen bottom decks in my back yard that for one reason or another I wouldnt use. I am not new to composite work The wing is a 48' composite...

    GTX2 motor relocation question

    I bought a gtx2 a few years ago, did a kawi 900 build and never really loved it. This year I yanked the motor out and decided to swap in a 701- much more fun now, but still wasn't right. I was using the Rhaas Yamaha conversion plates and his mounts. Had big vibrations etc.. I have since...

    fresh hull build-

    Not much forward progress to speak of. Have made several bottom decks that I am not happy with, too many air pockets that just wouldnt come out. So now my yard Is filling up bottom decks. Will be trying again soon. I will say the pump area with all of the angles and curves is quite difficult.

    Waterbox question

    I thought I remembered seeing a flapper style waterbox somewhere on this site. That the flapper closes when water tries to come back up the exhaust, i seem to remember it slowed the water rushing into pipe. Anyone know of this or am I just dreaming?

    New 3/5 Gallon Tanks for TNT, RRP, PFP & B-pipe

    Just my 2cents on buying from limtiedslip. A few years ago my fiance bought a tank for xmas. Years later I use it. Dude hits me up asking about the gasket saying they had some issues. And sends me a new one. I never hit him up. Never posted any issues. Dude is a standup guy.

    Pipe help

    i am not super familiar with the PJS pipe. I only had one friend use it and it did suck... once the pipe was changed the ski came alive. HOWEVER the head pipe had been repaired- so being it was the only one I had seen personally I couldn't say that the pipe was bad or the repair hurt it. My 2...

    650/X-2 X2 project 701 ?

    I am no ski surgeon- that was just my 2 cents on the thing. i had spent some serious time aligning the couplers and had then dang near perfect. the off idle vibration rattled my teeth. very bad, but up at any higher rpms was non existent. Did this swap in 3 or 4 x2 hulls nows and...

    650/X-2 X2 project 701 ?

    I have yet to see a highly modded 701 not vibrate, regardless of hull. I rode B1 with a fresh very well built 701, FP, big waterbox, porting, etc etc etc... It had a noticeable vibration, a RN with similar setup did the same thing. I personally have built several yamaha powered x2's from...
