Purchased Fall of 2015 from @alex_hockey. Purchased things from him in the past. I have given the man $10500 in the past year and a half. Everything i got from him was steller. Very pleased!

This ski is apparently 1 of the 3 Carbon/Kevlar hybrids ever made and sent to Canada.. Correct me if im wrong.

yes that is a stetcher. Yes its height adjustable & movable. ITS THEEEEE BEST SKI CART EVER! Doin some ski surgery!

The seller included a visual carbon hood. Looks great! Purchased the X Metal Comp Length pole with straight bars. Purchased from @91SuperJet in December of 2015. Reputable Seller! A+++

I made an order the following week to @JetManiac for pole pinch bolts, grips, levers and cables. Once again JM came to my rescue!! Pics to follow of updated pole...

I purchased some punched 62T cases from @jetx in late 2015. Im planning on using them for my ET967 top end. They need to be repaired... haven't tig welded the cases yet. There is also a alignment pin that was pushed in that i need to weld onto and yank out... Still an on going project! Good seller!!

As you can see im going for a two tone yellow-green colour. The paint on this ski is funny in how it appears sometimes, other pics you will see the green matches the yellow on the hull - Depending on the light, the colours change.. Bonus

Here's the order i got from JetManiac...

-Lime Green ODI Grips
-Trim Lever
-Throttle Lever
-Trim Cable
-Clear Billet 3/8 bypass pissers
-Pole Pinch Bolts
-Pole Limiting strap
-Billet ADA Engine couplers


Got the pole hood shock pad from @ShowtimeStocks . Very pleased with the quality of the pad. Ill probably order another pad for my other hood... I havent mounted the pad onto anything yet, its just sitting there. Reminds me, i need to figure out what the best way to mount, glue, apply it is...

Contact adhesive is the best thing to use!

So stupid me, i realized after i made the JetManiac order i forgot to order the chin pad mounting kit... So i made my own on a Friday night, started with about 3 1/2 x 1 inch round aluminum rod.. spun up in the lathe, tapped and everything. Even cut off the markings on top of the bolt!

 

[Th3g3rm4n4t0r]

I figured i should rebuild my jet pump with new bearings and seals before i throw it in the ski. Luckily i did, one of the bearings was missing a carrier, well where did it go . Checked everything over and clearances/tolerances were way to tight.. Added somestainless onto the shaft and back to the lathe to get it to proper size.

Im pretty sure everyone here has had the joy of removing an impeller... I bent my impeller tool that goes onto the impeller while doing so. I ended up welding an axle nut from a car i had kicking around the shop. It did the job perfectly, along with the press.

Bought a Power Factor Pipe from @sneds earlier this month. Great seller, pleasant guy! Practically brand new, going to be running it wet.

 

[Th3g3rm4n4t0r]

Finished the pump and bead blasted the parts a month ago. Including motor mounts & flywheel cover

 

[Th3g3rm4n4t0r]

Epoxy primed and painted my pump, motor mounts, flywheel cover and other odds and ends about a week ago.

 

[Th3g3rm4n4t0r]

Purchased some MSD Total Loss Goodies about a week ago as well!
