Surfriding 02 jet rocker and shorten jobby

[imperialgtr]

i bought this 02 jet in 2010and started the project in 2011 and finnally finnished it in 2012, i dont post a lot on here but its sat night and i aint got much better to do! lol
ill let the pics do the most of the talking

the back has been shortened by 3 inches the front by 4 with mega rocker i took a mold off a mates fr2 and made a hood to fit the superjet, the pole bracket was moved forward, the tray is 4 inches wider than a stock jet and the rails are set out 30mm (thats an inch and a quarter for you yanks) wider, there is also built on tubbies, the gunnels are shaped kinda like a kdx, paint wise i painted it kinda like a 2010 jet, a friend and i also made up 3 breathable poles and brackets so 1 ended up on my boat.

Looks like a sweet ski! I couldn't believe that it was a superjett. Must have been a lot of work.

stock 701 with type 4 pipe, msd, vforce 3s, lightened flywheel and powerfactor waterbox, thats about it, it rips hard enough for the surf

Very nice build! How does it ride?

 

[imperialgtr]

rides really well, i had a trim on it but went back to stock as i couldnt get it to slide, problem solved and now im well pleased with it been a while since i rode an fr2 but i reakon it rides very similar, i never kept a log but i reakon i put well over 100hrs into this hull

Fantastic looking build ! Looks like you widened the rails . What did you do to loosen it up ( make it slide) . Really like the handle pole area.... Might steal that one later.

Looks killer! Wish you showed how you got there, but the results are great.
