    Other I can see clearly

    Been a long time since I've seen one of those hoods. Cool idea, but they fogged up quick. The flywheel cover would be easy for anyone making billet covers already. Replace aluminum with polycarbonate, and use a torch on the machined part to make it clear.

    wdk hood?

    Razor hoods look nice, but do have fairly hard edged corners to bang your knees on in the tray. Build quality matches the price.

    Nice, but it seems like a lot for a 7yr old. I'd have looked at an X2 for much less.

    Super Jet xr tech or jet dynamics?

    Good observation. The 1000cc motors can run a 1 degree lower pitch prop with an XR-tech grate compared to the same driveline with a JD grate. The XR grate pushes more water into the pump because it have more blade/surface area. Not the best thing for every setup (buying a $140 grate and needing...

    Other O-ring heads and rubbing parts together

    Glass is a poor choice, because it flexes to match the surface it's sitting on AND isn't 100% flat to start with. A Surface Plate (hopefully in current certification) is the proper surface to do this on. A ground block of steel (precision surface grinder or blanchard grinder) would suffice for...

    Sounds like you're asking for trouble. If the PVC fails you could sink the ski.

    Man-made wave Perfect

    Anyone ever been to a wave pool, and watched how they work? It's all in how you displace the water and give it a place to go that makes a wave. No moving wedge or cable, just a big "paddle" that rises quickly enough to get the ball rolling. Much like a tsunami. Add in a floor that gradually...

    I hear BUN freestyle is using uranium in their new hulls.

    May be a dumb question. Call me noob

    Stick with the SJ, and just hone your riding skills. Sure, there are a few custom (and more expensive) options out there. No need to spend your summer building a custom ski, when you can dial in the SJ and enjoy riding. Here's the basic list of normal mods: Reinforce hull sides Front sponsons...

    Any bets on the police actually seizing his truck ( which FL law allows) ? I bet he gets it back, because he's famous.

    That is a copy of the stock plate. It looks like the Odyssey Racing plate I have on my HX, but honestly it could have been made by anyone. They handle fine, and shed a little weight.

    750 sxi pro

    It depends on what your idea of "freestyle" is. Play, jump, nosestab, sub = Yes, it can do those. Barrel roll, backflip, superflip = forget it. It's heavy, and not suited for those things.
