You guys let me down, I was hoping someone would ask if I borrowed Highroller's grinder to cut it!! . I'll make another plate that is regular length, just to swap out and see the difference on the shortened hull.

My thinking was that compare submerging a plastic bottle under water and the pressiure of the water can compress the air in the bottle making it dent in. A pressurized bottle will not compress under water. I did not even think of the weight of AIR in the bottles. :bad3:

I have not ridden a short hull before, but most people say they love it and there's no going back. I am about 170lbs with gear and soaking wet. :biggrin: I really only ride surf and anything to keep the nose up in waves should help. We'll see, I still have my std length hull if I hate this...

Try doing less weight, and more reps. Slow, controlled, muscle tightening reps. It kills me to see people working out with too much weight and have terrible form. Looks like they are hurting themselves. A 120lb curls can't be pretty or have any kind of good form. To me, just hucking weight is...

Not really a 'ski buildup' but part of a ski buildup. I shortened a hull by about 3.5inches and did not want to cut down a nice carbon rideplate, so I made a mold of it and made my own off the mold. I used PVA mold release from UScomposits. I used epoxy resin because that's what I buy in...

sent ya a PM, I'll pay for shipping both ways. Thanks!!

So, how much for one of these tools mark? Or can I borrow yours and mail it back? I have 5 coils to get the wires off of.

I am pretty ghetto and I used bottles in my build; Lots of them, all different shapes & sizes. If you put the bottles uncapped in the freezer for a few hours you will get more air volume in them. :idea:

I have like 5 good coils that need new wires for various reasons. I know JSS does it for $65 each but I wanted to see how to do this myself. I remember seeing a picture of a special tool to remove the old wire & epoxy out of the coil body, but can't find it now. Here's an auction where you can...

only if you want 2stoke exhaust goo in you new hull. get the gasket. Looking good

Congrats man! Could you tell it was lighter on those few hops? It looks tiny with a rider!

Wait, are you implying that YOU are mature?????? :chairfall: you are a waste of internet. Craigslist rants & raves, look into it.

What kind of steering are you using? Is that a an old style (86-94) x2 UMI? You may have probles with it, as the mount area on those were flat, not 25-30deg. How do the new style trinity X2's work w/o a hood liner??

You refer what you schmear on these 2 sites as 'participating"? :rolleyes: You know alot about jetskis and can help alot of people, maybe focus more on that than you current 'participation' role.... 8K + posts here and a crap load there also...how many of those are of any real value?? maybe...

Can you weigh what you have left of it there now? The bottom decks are what's so dang heavy. I'll bet the top SN deck only weighs about 25-35lbs or so w/o reinforcement. Gonna do tubbies or paint the bottom before mating the 2 halves? It's gonna look sweet!

The side you are screwing into is the plastic front side so you can't tap. I've replaced mine with course thread stainless phillips screws. Never had one strip.

Well thanks for trying pal, but I don't remember asking for your worthless opnion on what to do. My other hull has a state assigned HIN, it's 2 decals and can't be removed and GA does not issue titles. A notary has to stamp saying that they saw the seller sign bill of sale as the seller...

Gil :tool:

No, this is the hull that I shortened with the bottles under the tray. Tigger is now painted to match this one. I'll have 2 matching orange SN's, one with a shortened RN pole other with the fixed steer hood I made. I painted them to match so I can swap hoods & poles between them if need be.

it's where internet peckerheads go to die :reporter:
