You’re the Big Kahuna I know nothing about you aside from you spend your time managing this forum which seems to me like the last bastion for people who are involved in jetski’s as a sport aside from all the morons at PWC forum. You know what’s going on and that’s important. Has anyone asked...

I’ll never forget renting Wave Race from Blockbuster for the N64 over and over again. I’m still thinking how cool ski racing is. I’ll host a race before I die.

No money in aftermarket makes complete sense. Glad you mentioned Tem, I reached out to him and asked. Like you said, boats were simply better. I tried to track down his old molds. What if someone made a new market and that redefined the “aftermarket” It seems like Yamaha is that market, I know...

So hulls are manufactured in SE Asia to begin with. I guess that’s a big yikes because I figured no one outsourced. My question would now be, do Krash and Rickter get bent over by the SEA manufacturers because they know / control the manufacturing market?

Can someone help me understand hull manufacturing better? It seems like it’s the biggest hurdle. Krash is in Australia I believe? I scratch my head trying to figure out why no reliable manufacturer exists. Someone could find a factory in Southeast Asia that would gladly start manufacturing ski...

Streaming? Does anyone having streaming deals?

Why don’t they package into one and make a formula type series? How have I never seen this on tv? Do they broadcast it on tv like race cars or motorcycles I feel like I’m missing something

Has anyone done that? It would be pretty sweet. Starting line from a wharf What’s east coast racing like? It would be good marketing and cities need events… Edit: after a private message I thought more about this. What’s the problem with jetski racing? I am a huge motogp and f1 fan. I know...

I don’t use much social media (forums like this and linked in only,) when I do I always use my name so I can be held accountable. It’s not some god complex or dogpoop way to sell people that I’m self aware. I was just raised in an environment where being wrong was okay as long as you learned /...

I was completely out of line and pissed off in my overly aggressive assessment. I addressed this situation as if I was an investor. That’s what I do for a living. Personally, I was very bothered and completely sent my internal thoughts out for the entire forum to read. I genuinely wanted to...

TECH SPECS Visual Carbon Epoxy-Infused Hybrid Hull I as a consumer feel mislead here. If @wiikstromm didnt ask then I would have purchased under the impression it’s a carbon hull. I’m questioning throwing my money at you now Edit: I’m not trying to be a cu*t or bring your product down, I’m...

I’m in there like swimwear Take my money Hopefully the IJSBA thing is easy. If it’s like AMA I’ll be sad

I took a deep dive and I can’t believe what I learned. It was crazy high pressure sales. Worse than the guy selling an 8ball in Miami from the gas station. Turns out the sales agent only gets paid if I buy on the first meeting…commission only. Then it went to a sales “closer” because I didn’t...

You know The guys that sell you the “best” product and “their” team who is certified to install it They said the install team is usually seasonal Labor from South America Sounds like they are selling me a building product then leaving me at the mercy of the subcontractor If you’ve ever...

We should set up a little think tank. I think corrosion issues can be solved with things like pressurized batteries or hulls For everyone here Look into companies like PCB stator and Factorial Energy The advancements they’ve made could definitely benefit the ski industry Also you could...

It makes me wonder, after reading on this post about someone waiting for work to get done to 951 cylinders. What happens when the guys that know that work are gone? It seems like the real OGs in this sport are 40-60 years old I could for see a future where the niche knowledge is lost and...

I wonder if this sport will turn into the Harley market. Once the 2 stroke support really slows down, parts could shoot to the moon. When I was a kid the knuckle and panhead motors my father would build were a niche but still had market support and availability wasn’t a problem. Granted...

How dare you assume people eat meat. I say let’s all go out on the lake, discuss equality over some sparkling water and grill up some environmentally safe impossible patties! If you’re feeling dangerous we can ditch our wives boyfriends and sneak some Michelob Ultras behind the menstruation hut.

Something I would just like to say because reading “America is dying” sucks. I believe our country and the world is in a jam, technology is advancing rapidly and our systems are increasingly becoming outdated everyday. World governments are pushing themselves over the flow of information war...

As someone new to the sport it’s very apparent. Either the person I’m buying from is done and quitting or they’re up charging me to fund their hobby. Given it’s a smaller industry, I understand. That being said I talked with one smaller hull manufacturer and they couldn’t believe some second...
