Looking for suggestions on a all round flat water freestyle hull and set up, And looking to purchase a Rtr. Some boat chasing and cruising around but mainly looking for something fun and poppy. Backflips are a personal goal so looking for something geared in that direction. Unfortunately I don't have a great opportunity to test drive much due to location. The xscream/hurricane/supe freak seem to catch my attention. Is that a solid direction or over the top ? thanks ahead for all advice

WDK Rip would be perfect for you.
Trendsetters phantom would be a good fit too.
But the rip is going to be probably the most playful hull you'll ever get on.

That rokr is a killer deal. Can't believe it hasn't sold yet.

budget budget budget. The most important part of your search and its not up in the post lol. Plenty of options for you, budget and skill level will be a determining factor. What is your riding history on stand ups?

Thanks for the input guys. As far as budget goes, just trying to get an idea from you guys what the $$$ would need to be around to get the what I'm looking for. Would like to have ski that is set up to easily do fw flips and rolls , and not struggling but at the same time doesn't have to be over the top. As far as riding history, I've had multiple skis through the years but all have been basic set ups. Few aftermarket parts. I have always wanted to take the next step and now is the time. For example. I watched the video of the super freak circus that is currently for sale in the threads and loved the pep and performance it appeared to have. At the same time would like to have a realiable machine that I'm not constantly tweaking, I'm I asking for to much or is there a nice happy median ? Sorry for hoping around so much, just new and trying to figure out which way to go. And thanks again

that rok-r is build for FW flips and rolls. I personally cannot chase boats well (its why the WDK Rip came out? Extended a little length?) on my rok-r but I...well I can.


Anyways, that Weston guy has pics showing he seems to take meticulous care. You can probably talk him down a little bit (Sorry Weston) but I have nearly the same ski and love it. And I did not get all those awesome extras!

Lots of good options out there now. Market prices have come way down! Rip for 4k, Phantom for 4k. etc... I havent rode those two but they sound like good options. Another option is picking up used. Like I said market is down right now. I have a Q8 hull with one season of use, Im looking to get 3k for it. Originally a 6k hull. They are great candidates if your coming off a sxr or kawi but can also be setup yamaha.

X2 on the rokr, solid built hulls. Can get into a used hull pretty cheap if you wanna spend the time to build one. Westons rokr is clean as poop.
