Custom/Hybrid Boyer's Matrix Pro reassembly thread. -2" with SS865, 144mm setback Mag

[OCD Solutions]

It's more of a reassembly than a build but I figured I'd give it it's own thread. I do have some paint change plans for the distant future but for now I just want to build it and ride it.

I wasn't planning on ever parting with my ES hull but I showed the 'Pro" sale thread to my wife and she convinced me that for the right price, it was a no brainer. I made an offer and 1900 miles, 6 states and 32 hours of driving later, it was in my garage.

Nice looking ski Boyer.l'm sure you will make it even better! Subscribed

Your builds are always great to watch.

Well I want to strip the decals, turf, footholds and paint off it but Scott is telling me to get it on the water for this weekend and worry about all that down the road. The decals are coming off regardless and I don't imagine the turf and footholds will last more than a week or two. The paint can wait however as I hate the whole concept of sanding and painting.

I guess I better toss some reg letters on there as well.

Boyer, I think it looks pretty damn good the way it is!!! Love the red and black turf!

 

[Flyboy]

X2. I think the colors are great

 

[N3vrSat1sfied]

Well his problem with the colors is that scotts matrix is red. lol

 

[iangdesign]

It wouldn't be his ski if he didn't change it up. That is a nice hull though!

 

[OCD Solutions]

I like the red and black paint, just not the turf. Red is a nice accent but there's a point where it becomes too dominant.

Congrats on your purchase!!!
That is one beautiful ski.

Nice looking ski for sure. How do these hulls carve pretty good ?

They carve very well as they have excellent traction. Makes them almost too stable though and it takes a bit of learning to get them to slide out. Once you master rider input though it's the best of both worlds and is a good solid all around ski.

....and eventually turns pink.


Couldn't you have had it shipped?

As far as the paint goes, looks like it is the offspring of the original and Sott's ski. I'd kill the decals and ride it for the summer.:bananalama:

All the online quotes I got were about even with the driving costs and still required insurance. I'm not a very trusting person so even if insured, I don't trust them not to damage it.

I posted it up on Uship and it must be ending soon because quotes started pouring in today. They started at $580 and it's now down to $295.

We did the trip for $385, the hull didn't get a single scratch and we got to spend some good quality time together.

Are you going to run the same gas filler mod as on the black one?

Yes, I installed the Thrust billet fill in the nose and will continue to use my old tank with the billet Wamiltons internal fill mod.

Is that a SN fire extinguisher holder you installed there?




Benny

 

[jaxrider]

looking good Boyer! Are you bringing that to Jax this weekend

 

[OCD Solutions]

Yup, turfed SN fire extinguisher keeps the DNR happy and gives me a front foothold at the same time.

I hope to have it ready for Sunday, not sure where we are riding yet though. Jax is a long haul to pull off and still get home but I'll go wherever the crew wants to ride.
