Mark,

The fixed steer rickter looks really great bro. I have to admit, that is some cool fab work right there. Can't wait to check it out at Wavedaze.

RRP color? What color would that be?
And if you know Mark at all you would know his answer will be "once you go fixed steer, you'll never go back"

I wish I got video of Mark Gomez ripping on the Fixster

Mark, Thanks for the ride on it. Despite the thumb throttle that thing was awesome! Tons of power and a great handling set up. You have to be a fan of the fixed steer to appreciate it but its super unique in its own way. It handles awesome I never could get it to pearl. In typical rickter surf fasion it did spray the crap out of my face but thats surf riding.. Thanks again for letting me ride it after you flushed it. I think Carter B might have been snapping some pics. This thing was awesome!

Ya man anytime! We all had a fun time hanging with you this week. And it was sick to see you rip the Fixster around!!

We just got home after a 27 hour drive so I'm beat.

I can't wait for Wave Daze in April that's our next big ride and we just may have a new build going on for that event.

Very nice

Despite what anyone else says, I'm with you on the thumb throttle. Top notch custom work, and cool innovative ideas. Definately got a lot of great project ideas for my FR-2. Wish I had time to try it. Only one problem... the fixed steer wouldn't fit in the Prius.:frown:

What is the weight on the complete carbon (new style X2's? They were pretty bad azz. I think I want one as a novelty.

when I say RRP color, I 'm thinking Rickter color , not just aluminium color , even if the weld job is awesome ....

 

[Twinturbostang]

Ya I think it needs to be coated white then sticker the red and black.

I love this boat! I can't find a build thread though. Is there one? Such a cool idea.
