funny project : Yamaha Flat deck......

[Laserman]

What a great build! I've heard TALK for years of people who were going to do something like this -

It's nice to see one actually finished! And you were the FIRST!

Congratulations on a great effort!

4,5 month after, it's still funny, but not yet video , nobody wants make vid of my Longjet ..... so it's difficult to make movies, because , the cameramam have to walk on reef with 2 feet water deep , sometime its unpossible , the wave are too big and dangerous....I need cameraman with big boloks (corones) hahahaha
I still hope

loictahit,

what Island are you on?? I love Tahiti!!!! have had many a good night in Papeete and rode some kick A$$ surf in Moorea on my Honeymoon. We may go back some day hope to see you on out in the break on your creation.

im thiking do the same build really nice,
the tray is so big, you can walk on it

 

[DirtyJ]

I just noticed this build thread, that thing is wicked and the quality of the build looks to be top notch!

Its good to see that there are jet-heads all over and not just in North America!

 

[chriselmore_1]

talk about hood tricks!!!!!!!!

 

[CarterB]

that looks os sick......bet its super fun on huge waves

 

[Kal Lake Local]

bump.

not only is that conversion sick... and done to the highest standard...

but this guy rides HEAVY waves. there's one post about how he has a hard time getting a camera man because "he has to walk on reef, only 2 feet deep" and "too dangerous".

talk about understated.... oregon and cali get heavy. no doubt and taking nothing away from both west coast and east coast surf riders... just pointing out that this guy is doing high quality custom work in a very remote location and then just casually rolls out into extremely dangerous, heavy reef breaks to test it. some stills from his go pro pretty much show it all... you DON'T fall there. period.

so sick.

Any video of this loic?

Should be dubbed the "vx Lounger"

 

[Vumad]

Nice work. Very clean. With a hull that big, a Seadoo 3D pole with the mount for the MX seat in place could have been a good option.

 

[jdmforlife]

old thread but lets see the video

 

[loictahiti]

thanks guys for all comment in this old post..

but one thing is sure , this project is still very fun , even in no deep water hahahaha

 

[BruceSki]

So where is the video and updated pictures of this ski?

 

[kickapooh]

Pretty bad ass ski you built there man. Get yourself a 6 foot pole to mount the gopro on and extend it out in front of the ski with the camera pointed back towards you. Would make for a hell of a nice video

[loictahiti]
