O i have to add my 2 cents......
Its all about the rider and training, I can not do a flat water barrel roll but tried 10 times at the last race meet to do back flips go figure, my ski can do it easy i know this , i just can not roll on the flat water, give me a 1/2 foot wave and i am there all day , no hander blah blah...............
If you ride in the surf do not waste your time just B pipe , prop, and all the straps and reenforcing.
Flatwater is in my opion a different thing and i bow to the guys :hail: who can roll on flat water, i just can not get it, a friend can do it on his stock with pipe and i land on my head, put me in front of a wave and i overrote and nearly do doubles.................
My advice after all the crap above ride for another year, port your cyclinders , then start to upgrade, i think we all have done our time on under powered bad handling boats......except for lee stone.. he he sorry could not help it
:tomato:
o and i am bored at work
