This is a 2008 Carbon XFT Fly X hull with a 5mm Power Valve Lamey motor (85mm bore) w/ MSD Total Loss. Haven't had much of a chance to ride it, but I like it so far!

That's awesome! I like my XFT a lot. Sergio does good work.

What type of footholds are those? Looks awesome!

 

[jeckert]

They are the 2008 Fly-X holds, I'm not sure if Sergio is selling them separately.

Not that I am aware of.

[SuperJETT]

Very nice Joe, very nice. It's great to see someone get a good hull that can really ride it.

bad ass dude! that gives me inspiration!

is that hull shortened at all or rear end modified?

[SuperJETT]

The fly-x is the backflip hull, which is what this one is.

Looks great Joe!
I need to ride with you again soon so you can help me with my crappy backflip technique. You're getting REALLY close!

 

[Big Kahuna]

just curious as to how the rear is modified...

can't find any information on XFT's site about it.

The hull is an angled back -2 inches, with bond line that is the same length as a stocker. This hull I did not weigh, but it was suppose to be somewhere between a flat water hull (@57lbs) and a surf hull (@64 lbs).

The footholds have 2 positions, I like the fwd position the best!

any explanation as to why the head is tapped the way it is?
