Ok so I started riding the SJ and love it. I push it as hard as I can in order to make up for the lost years riding a 550 - and effects are here: broken and lost carbon nose cover, broken and lost chinpad (aftermarket and oem)..I probably have an AC pole, the oem chinpad fits there perfectly. Ok, what is strong enough to keep up with the abuse ( I ride on the hood a lot and I am not a butterfly). Oh, and like 250 usd chinpads are out of question.

Thanx!

If you are from Poland do NOT buy anything from WDK. Just dont! Spend an extra buck and get the best, from the people who support this sport.

Swanny is of course speaking of Blowsion. They also make the most durable cleanest looking chinpad, imo, and you get to pick your colors!!!

To answer some questions:

My a/m chinpad was a mold off something and turfed. It was fiberglass - really light but the mounts were not reinforced. They just broke and the chinpad flew off somewhere. The nose - my bad, I did not attach it securly in 4 spots, only in 2...stupid me..

Regarding choices:

I know WDK stuff and I know Blowsion - we have 2 blowsion skis here, bought off blowsion. Their stuff is really strong as they concentrate mostly on freeride skis IMO. About WDK, I've heard it takes them time to act, but I use help of John @ Jetski haven who knows them well. I think that it would be cool to get some support from the some of these companies. The sport is developing here and we would have additional incentive to promote those who help us. Maybe a small bonus to those 2 skis bought off Blowsion? :)

Ok, let me rephrase all this:

1. Andrew has AC pole (same mounting for chin pad as oem pole).
2. Andrew has max of 150 usd
3. Andrew is 200 lbs and likes to sit on SJ's chin..(not my usual fetish though..)
4. Andrew doesn't want to wait months for it

Who can help? :)

well, You left out the "IMO" from my quote. Also I have never broken a blowsion carbon chinpad and I think there are very few people in this world that abuse their ski more then myself, IMO.
