So a little history here. This is my second brawler after having a glass one last year. Loved the hull, hated the foot holds. So over the winter I sold the glass hull and went back to Josh & Brian at Rage Composites. We had been discussing ways that would make these hulls even better. They ran with some of these suggestions and hooked me up with an AMAZING carbon hull with basically everything I had asked for : adjustable footholds, huge front foothold, 155 pump tunnel, Versi-Plug Max, rear battery box location, all inserts (I didn't want to do any hull work), hood latch assembly (Limitedslip7), full size fuel tank (Limitedslip7), and a full width ride plate. Paint was done in New York at Zeon's where they do great work as well (photo proof below).
I cannot say it enough times Josh and Brian are the real deal. They produce a great hull, have amazing communication, customer service, and at a great price. I sent the entire payment in full and didn't flinch knowing I would receive my hull on time. For those of you that are on the fence just give them a call and talk to them, find out how honest they really are and your mind will be at ease. They are truly top notch.
The powerplant is a PHP 898. I actually bought it a year ago in the spring but never even dropped it into the last brawler because I was so busy with work. A year ago I rode Zack's Circus and Tom's Hurricane with 898s. It is amazing what these powerplants can produce. Finally dropped it into this ski, and WOW. It is all about the complete package and Zack knows his stuff inside and out. I thought my RN hit hard and was fun. Getting off this ski onto my RN feels like hopping on a vacuum from a freight train.
Being I just bought a house and moved to Wisconsin this took a little longer than I had hoped to build on my end. Houses are a lot of work! It's all worth the view though...
