Anyone run an XS pole on a Rickter??? if so pics

[Krenn Power Sports]

considering a rickter hull but would want to use an XS pole.... anyone done it?

How would you get air into the hull?

 

[Krenn Power Sports]

Same way you do with xs hulls. They are open inside.

You may just want to get a sheet of carbon to put under the pole bracket. Then you can drill smaller exhaust tube holes through the bracket for the xs tubes.

The rickter breather tubes are a good bit larger. You would need to add the ram aor duct to the top of the hood so it could get enough air.

I’m not concerned with the air flow. Just want to see the fitment of that pole if someone has done it

Always interesting in these threads.Ask one question and come up with other answers! You may just have to try one Krenn. Was everyone asleep when they answered

I put XS poles on both of the boys competition skis. I filled the holes and put a layer of carbon over the pole bracket area before re drilling the XS layout. Revolver hull was virgin so I drilled what I needed without prep work to fill. Both turned out well and have hood liner breathers

Kinda like putting a RRP pole on a DVX....... Just not going to look good. But that is just my opinion. Bottom line, Its a handlepole. Will it work? Just like any other pole. It goes up and down.

Wondering on fitment. If it works with out modifications then i could fixxy one

I think you would need to specify if you are looking at the bigger steel mounting bracket type or the small aluminum bracket like they use on a DVX wouldn't you?

The hoods are more flat vs curved. But making a mount to the hood would be much easier than on an DVX/He2

Small DVX bracket fits nicely on the Rickter and Revolver. You don’t need to modify the pole at all, just have to fill the big holes and drill the XS pattern for mounting the pole. I suppose you could silicone a thin plate to the pole bracket area and sandwich it between and drill the smaller breather holes and then remove the plate if you wanted to go back to RRP pole

Dragon plate sells some nice prefabed plates. I put a 3/16 pre fabed plate on my vengeance hull, worked pretty good. I don't think the RRP bracket should be a problem. I put a ski works pole on it with no problem.
