Ski looks great man. Where did you get those pissers from? I want to get rid of my 90 degree pisser to something that fires out the side, something more noticeable while I'm riding.



hey bud i got them from chris(jetmaniac) hit him up he will supply them at a great price they are made from ADA

i had 90deg ones and hated it love the 45deg

After riding my mates 2012 ski I decided to chuck off my tubies:)
They made my ski very unstable and wobbly at top speed and causes my rear to spin out on any hard corner because it's creating a pivot point upfront:)

So off they come:)

Also previous owner put the tow eye horizontal instead of vertical so it bends:)

So to get to it had to take everything off

Also let's me clean it all up nicely:)

Ski going to paint shop tomorrow to fill holes and paint the bottom again

So today I decided it's time to throw down a backflip:)

Got myself ready and hit the best looking wave I could find

All was great until I :)had done 80% rotation that's where I stopped and came right down had my awesome burn industries nitro vest on and I'm so glad that took all the impact without me feeling a thing


Pity my ski took alil damage nothing serious:)

Ripped my one side of trim off not sure how

Also destroyed my stock battery box so a girdle batt box is in order:)


But what a amazing feeling flipping can't wait to get it dialled in:)

I ripped my rub rail (side trim) off in the surf this weekend in California. It is just held on with rivets, they are not too strong. I still have mine and it is in one piece so I am just going to SS bolt it back on with lock nuts.

I'm on my 3rd stock battery box in 2.5 years. This one I turfed really good though so hopefully it lasts with less shock of the battery moving around, etc. If it brakes again I will upgrade.

If you're going to be throwing big stuff in the surf you probably want to reinforce and get a new pole, pole mount and steering system if yours are stock.

Mine were held on with stock yamaha self tapper screws


Where mine broke was where the tank strap mounts think landing upside down caused my tank to move and break that

My hull has been totally reinforced already before I bought it so I'm lucky


Hopefully in 2 weeks I'll have some documented proof of my flips

Was the performance better with the b pipe over the coffmann ?

night and day differance bud

the b-pipe is set to factory setting 3/4 bottom open rest closed

its not sizzzeling yet need to close the bottom 1/8th

but with stock setting top end was a real arm puller the coffmans felt like it was holding back

so i need to tune it alil more and open the top 1/8th aswell just to get alil more bottom end power

but inmy exoeriance i would recomend the b-pipe over coffmans

only thing i liked about the coffmans was(silly and small) but the exhaust manifold finishes the FP finishes is rough the coffmans wins there hands down
