It is made in Germany.
Blowsion imported some and marked 'em up!
I rode an earlier model on the Rhine a few years ago
 
Still one of the most if not the most beautiful engine bay of any ski on the market in my opinion. I had the pleasure of meeting Norbert at surfslam a few years back...what a cool dude. He brought out his ipad after dinner one night and showed off about a dozen of the cars he's built and done the composite work for, including finished weight and top speeds. As sweet as his lightweight hulls are you should see the body kit he built for his porche....unreal.

It is a great hull. Really strong construction. Rides really nice too. Wish they still made them.

I have the same ski and all I changed up was the factory holds and went to straps. Which is 30 minutes of work on this hull. Could not stay in the holds for the life of me. Funky feet maybe. With the removable tray you can pretty much set it up to how you want it. Went Flat deck for a while and it was interesting to say the least. Was like a dasa powered surfboard!

That's not true. They are flat out expensive. I paid 8k for mine alone. Build quality is second 2 none.
I'll never sell mine.

What is not true?
Blowsion imported hulls, installed drive trains
marked them up with blowsion logos and sold them, only domestic source
Of course they are expensive. Top quality too. They are made in Germany!
Or are you saying I didn't ride a Lightweight on the Rhine?

Blowsion imported 1 hull and sold it after trying to sell it for a long time So I'm not sure what your talking about. That's what I'm talking about.

I wish they sold them like your saying. Ross and I pumped them up a lot and no one bought them because they were "too expensive"

Which if funny because now you can buy a 10k hull that will never be as nice as Norbert's work.
 
Just knowing how strong it is and the tech/QC process during the lay up is great peace of mind with this hull. If they still sold them I would buy another hull today. Worth the 8k IMO. It also doesn't need that much of a motor and it still pulls pretty good.
