i have a few of these- great looking!!!

These are not the scissors- but they look almost identical, same coloring and everything. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Stalwart-1-25-in-Cordless-Power-Scissors-M550103/302567996 I paid about $100 for them. Also at my work we tried out a eBay or amazon special pair for like 25$, they...

Yes, the thin layer of 3/4 oz mat is just used to make sure there are not air pockets between the gel coat and the glass. Then comes the 24oz biax and then the mat again for a nice finished look. The first layer kicks and is sanded in prep for the multiple glass layers coming. It was too...

you can use 2 types of resin- epoxy or SMC resin. SMC is the best for the old X2's. Then layer your glass whatever you choose to use to be about 1/8" to 3/16th thick.

not much progress.. or any actually. Just got back from Pismo- and broke all of my skis. LOL. Put a nice hole in my GTX2... above the water line. Wave took it out of my hands and threw it into my beach cart. crap. Will be jumping back on this soon. Im pretty excited to build the hull...

When I ran dual 44s in my x2 with a Yamaha 760, I would run out of fuel and have to be towed back by my buddy, he had a built 750 small pin with a single 46. You will drink fuel. Also x2s are not known for their water tight hood seals. 2 carbs is 2 potential ways for water to get in. I went...

Depends on the intended purpose of the ski... what do u plan on using it for?

Well I have a big update. Massive fires surround my town and evacuation orders are being given. https://www.winebusiness.com/content/file/CountyStatusMap_20171011_0500s_(1).pdf shows a map and fires surrounding me. I am in Napa, CA now.... Have the toy hauler packed up, got my skis...

i took a good friend to the ER for a knee injury. He was fabricating a new metal section on a classic car, and happened to be using a cutoff wheel to smooth out a weld- it blew apart and went threw his pants and sliced open his knee area, you could see the knee cap. he got a bunch of pain...

The one time I truly hurt my back, and I mean HURT- I was lifting a box. It put me on the ground and took the wind right out of me. Laid up in bed for several days- I was done. Worst back pain I have ever experienced. The box was only about 3lbs, just twisted weird while picking it up...

Was looking for some basic parts everyone has laying around- Yamabro stepped up and delivered in a timely manner. Huge thanks! Good guy here, honest and very helpful

My intention was never to make these for sale. I wanted a few skis, and a couple friends did as well. I started my build thread on my rokr and mentioned that I had the f1 pro mold. I have received a lot of pms of people asking to get one. If there is enough of a demand then I will make some...

From what i gathered, Jeff made them more as a side project. He never pushed them his focus on skis was freestyle hulls. He made the f1 pro after loving his fx1 but it was too heavy and needed more pump. When I bought the molds I got the original plug for the f1 as well. Very well made...

I know that the skis will be built again... starting late 2017 early '18 its just dirty from transport and then house move shortly after.

the only thing left is a pump stuffer and a pjs rip turn nozzle

If anyone is serious about an f1 pm me. We can do a small deposit to hold ur place.

SO if I am in pain and sweating does that mean Im doing something right? Just got off the phone with Jeff (WDK) , he is super nice guy and very knowledgeable when it comes to composites. Huge help. Very nice to be able to consult with an expert in the field.

ribs aren't broken, but yes they are bruised. aside from ribs pain, it was in the mid 90's here. way to hot for doing glass work.... pot life was around 15 minutes. Hope to see the temps drop some so I can really get cranking things out.

I am getting a lot of questions about that ski. I had planned on building a few for myself and friends, but if there is a demand for them then yes i will gladly make some for others.

inside of hood is done too. also did a few other small parts, like mid shaft mount, and pump tunnel.
