Custom/Hybrid Counterfiet RRP Rickter Hulls??

[N3vrSat1sfied]

This isnt the first time we have seen A/M hulls copied and being sold. Sucks for the OP, the manufacturers, and all of us.

Id like to hear more info about this..

The decal looks exactly identical but the quality of the material they use looks cheap compare to rickter imho

Looks like no padding in the tray.
The turf is coming off the rails.
The foot pods don't hook enough at the tips, these are almost flat
Normally have smooth padding/turf @ front of tray going up to hood

Rickters do not come with the tray padded, just Turf only.

He probably bought the graphics from Rick Roy direct lol

Before you buy, contact RRP and make sure they are a dealer.

This sucks. I'm sure once he got the hull it was obvious (missing emblems etc....)

Dont Rickters have the big R in the trays? Every one I have seen does.

It's actually a "K", but many Rickter owners remove the factory turf as it is slippery compared to Hydro Turf.
It would be nice to see more pics or a video of the fake. Turf, the easiest item to replace on a ski, is no way to identify a hull.

 

[JMew03]

Lol my bad. Guess I need to pay more attention to them.

So still does not answer how you know it's fake.

To me a new turf job does not say much?
And flattening out foot holds

That all seems like a normal mod an owner would do to get rid of slippery turf...?

Any more info on this???

Rickters have HIN/ID tags on the inside. If you're concerned a hull may be fake, just call a reputable dealer and ask them to run it.

Man if I made that copy of claim that poop. It looks good in that pic

 

[Rowley286]

Quite a few differences if you look closely.

 

[txsuperjetfreak96]

should have made a few changes to it, named it something else and sold it as another a/m hull.

When I saw the FB story, it looked like the font was off or something on the XFS. Otherwise from that one photo its a fairly convincing copy.

Hopefully the OP posts more photos.

I can see it is different but don't get why it is, I might be missing something here im defiantly not a ski builder . wouldn't it be much easier, cheaper and quicker to pop a mold off an original one instead of trying to make a mold from scratch, wouldn't that be hard to do just to even get it close.
I seen it on face book and guys were saying they would buy it off him or to build it himself, he may have a better chance of getting his money back if it was left as is, plus who knows what glues and stuff has been used in it it could simply fall apart first ride as most knock off's do.
I hope he does get it sorted it really sucks.

I must be blind because I don't see anything that convinces me it's a copy. And the fact that there is only one picture of this "copy"? The deciding factor would be an engine bay picture. Just my opinion

 

[Jetfiend]

Do they make a Ninja copy? That's the only way I'm going to be ballin like that!
