Looks like you were a bit late in the timing, Just a thought from someone who hasnt even tried a BF.
Looks like that thing hits pretty hard, glad to see there is someone else out there still modding the 750's. What mods do you have on it besides whats listed on the youtube feedback? I been going back and forth with mods on mine finding the best combo

i will suggest you to make more a U or a C as a setup wake instead of a L, it will help, just my

thanks. yea im really happy with it. its come a long way from when i got it thats for sure..i have a ocean pro head. i flipped the exhaust to the other side so i dont run a waterbox. little porting and thats about it other then whats listed on my comment on youtube. total loss is what gave me the best gains other then the pipe. i just added the tbm. and dual carbs. its def helping with hook up for sure and def some more pop of the bottom.
what do you have done?

That 750 is seriously chopped up. BF is going to take more technique, head back, extend legs, pull back. The L shaped turn looks like it produces a decent setup, but the U turn usually makes a better wake. JMO, I only flip in the surf...

my only tip is to put a waterbox back in. :thinkerg:

get the back end lower on take off. You want the pump hooked up as much as possible. This will get the ski/nose more vertical before you even get the tail out of the water.
I would say practice the u turn and getting the back end to sink at the bottom of the setup wake. If you do not accelerate once the back end drops down, the wave should at that point push the ski on top of you. This would be when you have the perfect setup and ski position to move to the second part of the BF.
Good luck,

And please the day you land it, ride it back and pop the hood to show everyone whats inside. I think you'd be the first the flat water flip a 750sx. You can do it man
yes sir stocky cut down a looot!
for sure chopped up! thanks for the tips! when im about to hit the set up wake i lose focus on the technique so i need some practice..that was prob my 10th try at it so i got some work to do
thank you. im def going to give the u turn a go. everyone seems to be saying that..great tips thank you
since the picture with the pole and turf on i iv shortened the pole 5 inches and cut out those inserts in the try and put some eme footholds in( love them..they hold tight and are super comfortable) over the winter im going to strip her down do some body work and make her pretty.
thanks for the post. i hope i will be! and yes for sure ill def ride in a pop the hood. thanks for the support!

Mines ported, bored to 800cc, milled head, aluminum flywheel, stock dual 38's, FP limited, gutted water box, blueprinted pump, TBM cone, 13/18 skat 5mm cut back, AC pole, tubbie 2's and all the other little goodies to go along with it. I dont think I'm anywhere close to trying a BF. Props for trying it!! I'm sure youll get it with a few more attempts.
What total loss setup are you running? That's my next mod. I'm running a 750 in my Q8, and I tried a bit last night to get her over in the flat water, but only get upside down or a little beyond that and she comes down on me. I need to hook up the trim nozzle that I picked up, and I'd like to get a total loss. The L turn makes a decent wake, but the U is a bit deeper / taller.
