If you can only afford one when it is that time Would you choose to run a big motor in your old stock hull or by a nice hull and run a stock setup in it? Just wondering what everyone's opinion is.

X2, you will be able to do a lot more on A/M with small power than a SJ with big power.

For flatwater hull, for surf motor.

Hull for sure. I'm running an SN 701 setup in my ROK and it's night and day difference!

Definately a hull. My riding has improved quite a bit already and I've only got a few rides in on my new hull. I promise you'll be much happier.

my foot rocket with lightly modded 04 superjet guts was no comparison to a superjet hull.

Depends on your riding style....If you love doing hood tricks, carve, choppy water, then stock hull is fine. If you want more air....get a hull, but big motor helps. IMO

Coming from a motor guy... Go hull first.

I had this same debate and couldn't decide so I did both. If I had to give one up though, I'd give up my SS865 and keep the Matrix hull.
But don't kid yourself, this isn't a "one or the other" scenario. It's a "which one am I doing first" kind of decision.

A which one first setup lol. I chose hull because I'd rather be comfortable on the hull first. Plus I feel if u can learn technique and do tricks without power the once you add power it just gets bigger and awesomer

Swapping my guts from my square to a freak made it feel like I got a bigger motor at the same time! Hull first........

I went motor first 3 years ago and i'm kicking myself for it. I've rode a ton of AM hulls with cheap $200 couch transplants in them and they were "always" more fun than my RN with 1000/1100/964cc's

Whatever you do, get rid of that X2!!! Used aftermarket hull with stock motor for the win.

I went with a bob at first. Kinda kicking myself for it but in spring I will buy a different hull.
Selling the x2 isn't the question rofl. Selling or parting out the 750sx. Now there is a really good chance of that happening lol.
Iveloved carving and riding and blasting around hon my kaw but it's time to do more than ride laps. I want to throw big so I chose a hull. Engine build soon. The bob has a 650 setup right now. I am going with a stock 760 for the surf hull

It appears to be just me, but I will take a BEAST ass engine in a superjet hull at this point in my riding over any AM hull. I have been riding 3 years...I'd rather ride a superjet than any other hull. Maybe I will feel different once I get better, but the pre 08 bottom deck is a good fit for me.
