Rickter fr2 set up wake help

[judd17]

Ive got a rickter fr2 with a mag pump and am having trouble getting a good set up wake. I have a 08 sj as well and can get a good wake using the 45deg turn technique on it but find it hard to get a good wave with the rickter?????

Anyone found the same thing? what are the rickter guys doing for a set up wake, is there a different technique i need to use???

try going slower and use trim for the turn

 

[judd17]

thanks mate i'll give it a try

Check your couplers, you may have dropped your handbag in there...I hear that can really hurt performance, and effect setup wakes?

LOL, I had to comment on that one. Still laughing here

 

[judd17]

Ok, I'll have a look. Pretty sure it will be ok as I usually hang it off the pole limit rope when i ride. O and the chick I got it of in thialand told me it was a man purse, at least I think she was a chick............

 

[kieran79]

judd17 are you getting a q8 ????

 

[judd17]

Na, but one of the guys I ride with down here in vic is, he is hoping to have it in the next couple of weeks Going to be interesting to ride back to back with my ski.....

 

[kieran79]

i heard there is one getting a 865 ss xmetal with skat pump should be a good combo,,,,

i'm going to try a solas mag pump with 701 with atp total loss and high comp........ i hope it will be enough to flip......

 

[judd17]

yea thats the one that is going to be down here, hungry74 is building it. should be good fun!

Am I on the right site oh yeah I'm signed in under my own name ha ha on that other box I could of been any one ha ha Kieran u got an eme or am I reading into things to much oh and Watty I might need u to fly up to load my soft wear ing computers !

 

[kieran79]

Yes I have one on order as I'm moving to Townsville for work so want a flat water ski

 

[Cranes]

Very cool what are u going to do with the pole just have it super tight or will it be a fixed q8 is it from wire

 

[judd17]

Have you squeezed a flat water flip out of you rickter yet cranes? are you heading to rip n ride this year?

 

[Cranes]

Nah no flips yet I've got an elec problem but my ski should finaly rip now dasa sent me new domes what motor have u got as for rip and ride don't think I'll make it big crew going to the gold coast to ride with wire and the boys an under ground comp maybe

 

[judd17]

fair enough....

running a jetworks 4mil stroker about 800cc, 44mm blackjacks and msd total loss on the way....

 

[Cranes]

Why not ATP total loss

 

[judd17]

From what i can gather the msd should give a hotter spark and more hit right off bottom, which is what im chasing. Prob not as reliable as the atp but just have to see how it goes, if it gives me trouble i'll get rid of it and go a atp. what ignition are you running?
