The entire pump, the liner, the stator, what?

The liner has always been stainless, and I am not sure what benefit it would be to have the rest stainless. It'd be heavier.

He just said the whole thing.

Not sure what the advantage of that is, vs the additional poundage.

hmm??

No liner needed?

Hey Ottis, try to adjust the trim up a tad, I think right now that it is nose heavy like the SXR, they are hard to brake free, except when on the race course and they do it everytime you dont want them too!!!!!!!!!!

The cool thing about this ski is it is NOT nose heavy. I am a nobody but this ski was the most fun ski I have ever rode. A couple people during the test ride said for racing the nose may need some weights. dunno though.

now the aluminum won't corrode and crack the liner or bind the prop

 

[waxhead]

Im pretty sure the pump isnt stainless

 

[Matt_E]

That's what I'm thinking. Huge increase in production cost for very little benefit, if any.

 

[Watty]

Yep, I can confirm that that pump ISN'T stainless...same old

 

[SkiDaddy]

Hmmmm........

yea i just ested as well on saturday . i concur it is like a blend of the previous o7 and a sxr . but to me it feels like it will be more race friendly . it hooks up great and carves great . but it does not like to be ridden straight to much it wants to turn . i didnt notice any chine wobble as others had posted but i would imagine if you started to put some power into one you will get there . but i think it will take time and a good build with some refinements and we will all be happy with it .
