Rickter FR2 EVO Carbon

[badvinny]

I finally finished installing my drivetrain in the used Carbon Evo I bought from TC Freeride. This hull came from the Rickter factory with destroyer tubbies and the Ninja competition 155 intake to go with the 155 Skat pump along with a custom Yamaha trim, and Carbon scoop grate (beautiful piece). TC matting padded extra thick with Hydroturf not the superslick RRP mat, YAY!
I installed my 16mm 1100 Dasa, 48mm Riva PB's, a new RRP Carbon pipe and waterbox, lightened 62t flywheel with an Epic HX3.
What a great handling hull, slash and carve's and I can pin that 1100 with no fear now! The carbon pipe is sooo light and fixed all my cracked pfp chamber woes, say goodbye pfp!

How do the evos ride/handle compared to the Fs2 ( 2011/12 ) I want to upgrade to a evo after the summer.

That's Badass, Vinny. Having the Ninja pump tunnel on my Evo, is probably the only thing I would change on my setup. You running flatwater, only? How do you prefer your setup...with or without rear sponsons?

We are putting a set of destroyers on an evo right now. ill let you know if its worth it or not.

The Ninja tunnel works awesome so far, I ride what the water gods give me and it was seriously rough out on Friday (only day I have ridden it so far). I have the destroyer tubbies and no rear sponsons, seems great with a bit more pop than my wife's evo that has no tubbies but does have rear sponsons. Of course her 701 is no comparison for my 1100, but I don't see the need for rears on mine yet.

TC said he puts the destroyers on every evo now (or tries to sell it that way)

Sweet I got this set sitting in my garage waiting for an Evo to come back in it.

Wow If those destroyers help at all this hull will be even more insane loving the evo bar none funniest lake cruiser bouy slashing dock jumping surf riding hull

My wife has a glass FS2, I have the destroyers. Mine definitely cuts a tighter turn, and will 360 on the water without losing balance at all, super stable in turns and the tighter the better. Hers has the rear sponsors plus a longer rideplate, it never porpoises and can be held wfo! Mine will start to porpoise at about 45mph but I am getting the body position figured out every ride.
Funny that she likes hers best and I like mine best, maybe she is trying to save me some money!
