New topic: Ugly ski pics!

My x2 is pretty dang ugly. I used it to learn a lot of what I know know about composites. The hull actually worked great, it only needs some minor improvements to the hood seal and a better hood liner. I went back to a stock hull for now to get a fresh idea of the x2. Had a heavily modified bottom deck so long I forgot how to ride a real x2. Working a new hull that will hopefully be much better overall.

do you still ride out there? if so next time im in town we should meet up and ride

Yes, but much less frequently since i got hurt 2 years ago. My superjet runs good. My x2 is out of tune. I just put the pump back together on the b1 but it has a small exhaust leak. My superjet is where i have everything invested but it hurts my injury so i picked up this stock b1and am working put the kinks.

The guys on st pete stand up crew on facebook ride every sunday.

Ive been busy with the baby a lot recently, but that situation is improving and hopefully i can get out there some. Just have to take it a little easier than i used to.

Yep gotta be one of the most entertaining threads ever.

Also throwing this up, because it's ugly and gives engineering students everywhere a bad reputation. And this is coming from an engineer who worked his rear off on his senior design project and had a patent awarded as a result. I wonder how on earth they thought no one would figure out they ripped off the wet bike? 90% pure copy and what's different is all snow mobile.

First comment on the article says it all.

Lmao what a joke
 
Man that was a painful thread. I read the first 7 pages and then skipped to the last 3 pages. that kid wouldn't have gotten so much hell if he didn't act like a know it all. I did feel bad though. Those guys unleashed on him. It's another reason I love the X. The mods on here would have never let it get that out of hand. Still....that poor ski lol.

No way man, the old days of PWCToday were the best when people just talked $hit constantly and no mods to be seen
