Freestyle factory Backie chan

[TheBuzzard]

Really want to here some feedback on the new chans

i'll bet money that they look, handle, ride and perform just like the old white glass chans did.

i saw your old RN hull down at windmill cove last time i was there. mike, the guy you sold it to, traded it complete for a super motard or something to that effect. i saw it on craigs for quite a while. hopefully modding that hull taught you to just break bread and buy something good. dont try and make a silk purse out of a sows ear............

The only OEM hulls light enough to begin with are the old Kawis JS, 300SX or 650SX. Neither will take a side landings but would be fine for back flips.

Is that a statement or a question? Last time I looked they had quite a few done

Statement. They have 5 partially done. No customers have one yet. Greg is supposed to be water testing his very soon.

i'll bet money that they look, handle, ride and perform just like the old white glass chans did.

I would hope so. They were pulled from the same molds.

Im anxious to see the final product, obviously everyone who owns a chan loves them!

Looks like Smitty is in tight with new chans! Are you on the list to get one?

That is what Freestyle Factory posts on their FB page. They have posted or hinted at anything in a few weeks. Still waiting to hear something myself.

probably getting ready for WF like everybody else that is or wants to be somebody

Exactly what they are doing.

Saw this on Gary's fb.......

The engine compartment looks a little ugly IMO..

I posted that because I felt the same way. I have been informed that this was a quick and dirty chan built for demo purposes. A friend of mine has one coming he said he has seen and it looks far better than this. I'll post pictures when I get them.

 

[SmittySX]

I should be getting mine any day now...

 

[iangdesign]

I hope it's a quick and dirty build. The bottom deck is all scuffed up and it ain't even on the waters yet.

Hoping to ride one of these at Havasu in a few weeks.

 

[yamanube]

Why would they even post that picture?

 

[Bobert540]

Is their "glass guy" putting the inserts and motor mount plates in or is that done in house at FF???

 

[smdubs]

I wonder how the alignment will be. Its ashame its being rushed.

I can't imagine they'd let a production hull leave their shop with the bilge area looking like that...seriously.

Hope your're right, but other builders have and no ones really said anything. Well, if anyone did say anything the fanboys rallied lol. I'm sure they just want to get one on the water for WF's to start a return on investment. Might not really be the best way to go about it though going by the reactions here. Good luck to them.

I would like to see a ride plate if they have one to replace the poor fitting original ones. I noticed the one in the pic does not have a plate on it.
