Go Bruce go. Looks good! Did you order your pole yet. I can get you one.

 

[BruceSki]

yes. pole shipped out yesterday. Turf will be done sunday, I have to turf adam's ski at the same time. After that its just bolting the pole on and putting the minor BS back in the engine bay and its ready to ride.....errrr sit on the trailer for another 6 weeks I mean.

 

[ryan]

lets ride its nice out!!!

 

[BruceSki]

I am screwed. working overtime for the next three months or so. 6 days a week sunday night through friday night. 1 hour early in on monday and tuesday night.

Still have class 3 days a week. can't ride thursdays anymore till july cause of class. I don't get home until 12-1230 on thursdays.

Maybe I'll make enough money to buy a rickter or something. Im sure you guys checked your dealer price on it already huh.

 

[ryan]

sure did!!

 

[Magnusson]

I noticed that you mounted a hood kit from tom21 and that you use a blowsion bracket
-What kind of pole a you running?

I`m asking because I run the same blowsion bracket with a RRP pole and I`m thinking of ordering a hood from him.

-Would be nice to see how they look together :so I can make up my mind : )

[BruceSki]

Nah i sold the Blowsion bracket. I have an xmetal bracket and an xmetal pole on the way.

sorry i can't be of more help

That sounds like me, almost exact same schedule. I'm swamped at work and all i want to do is work on the ski and go ride.

 

[BruceSki]

got my pole in today. Its sweet.

 

[mkivbren]

Nice man, is this the same pole? Didn't know if there's different versions...

[BruceSki]

yes same pole. I just got the adjustable part in black instead of gold or silver.

 

[nokfir]

that pole is sweet looking. makes the dinged up ac pole look like garbage.

 

[WILKEY]

i love my adj. x metal.

 

[ryan]

looks like a popcicle stick.

 

[BruceSki]

looks like a popcicle stick.

If I had my pole bracket I would have it mounted on the ski and take some better pics outside.

What's up? powdercoating takes 3 weeks for paying customers? 2 days for free? J/K


seriously though did you guys get to my stuff yet?

 

[ryan]

crap has ben done for a week. FYI

 

[BruceSki]

damn where's my phone call... maybe ill have to send tim down there to pick that stuff up for me. Let me know what I owe you guys.

 

[mkivbren]

I'm planning to run the same hood/pole combo. I see the cable hole below the x metal bracket, did you open that up in the past for a different bracket? I'm about to reinforce and wondered if I should close all that up then re-drill the hole after I get the x metal bracket?

yeah i used to have a single hole blowsion.

I thought about closing it up and re drilling, but i reinforced the crap out of underneath the pole bracket already so i think im okay.
