You need some kind of decals to commemorate the fact that it returned from Davey Jone's Locker.

Excellent! good stuff! so you said you've been busy and riding....riding this one I assume? Excellent work... realistically, I know it was in salt, etc... did you have to soak every single part, or did you just do it for peace of mind?

More or less piece of mind....but they were pretty haggard, so i figured a chemical dip wouldnt hurt. Soaked the parts for 72 hours in a heated chem washer at 190 degrees. Made everything come out oh so nice.

Yeah for sure the controls are next in line and making those tubes smoke color! Thinking about doing anodized pole tubes as well! There is always something to upgrade and improve......

Awesome thread. Your write up on the first page was well done, I felt like I was there.

Really came back together quickly and with a lot of attention to detail.

What's with the huge stack of washers under one of the pump bolts?

Wow! You are still with us! that's what counts. And i have a ski for sale low low

I absolutely love when horror stories end like this. Can't believe that ski washed up with the hood still on!

Daytona freeride guy lost his blaster and got it back after 2 days.

 

[Sanoman]

Glad he got it back! Never ceases to amaze me the power of Mother Nature.

 

[Quinc]

Glad he got it back! Never ceases to amaze me people do not shove as much foam as possible into there skis after reading all these lost ski stories..

 

[Big Kahuna]

Pro Sport rider lost his Blaster in a surf race in Virginia Beach back in the 90's. It washed up a few years later after a storm. Good times.
