I wonder if the pro watercraft sponsons fit the hull. Were the ninja holds that huge of a difference over the stock holds?
I'm not sure on that, i know Carve composites in the UK made a good copy of the blowsion. To be fair it's not the cheapest mod but worth it for my riding as i love surf riding over anything else.
Yes Ninjas are alot better, they hug your feet more as the shape curves over. I also used to kick the sides of the original style alot (broke my toe twice infact).

Stock Rickter pad is hard as rock. All the stress upon landing will go on your arms and hood. Adding soft pad over or under the stock one is a must for Rickters.

Because I can’t seem to find this simple answer here is the question. How long and wide is a Rickter XFS? Sorry if this is redundant but I have searched all over.

The widest point on our XFS is around the hood latch area and it's about 29" across from the outside of each rub rail.
From the nose to the rear center part (it sticks out further) of the tray is 81"
Depending on what pump or nozzle set-up you have it will stick out beyond the tray. Our 155mm set back Skat Track and RRP trim set-up sticks out another 4", so 85" total length from the nose to the nozzle.

Thought I'd share my solution for a rear tow loop on my XFS. Used a Ti billet bow eye

I'm pretty sure you need the same Blowsion tubbies for rickter hulls. Shoot Blowsion an email to confirm?? info@blowsion.com

For those that want plug off the Scupper yet have a way to flush out your hull just spend $8 at Home Depot or your local hardware store and put an expandable plug in the engine compartment side of the scupper tube. Easy to take in and out and seals off the water completely from the engine bay.

I like it! Me and @Harbor did pismo recently and the scupper I made drains wayyyy faster then I had thought. I would safely say it drains the same as any insert and possibly same as flap, if not as fast very close at least not worth thinking about.
It's tough..free water drainage while riding is sweet...but water leaks suck. I think everyone finds what works for them eventually. I definitely did.
I had no idea they made a 3" good find

Here is what it looks like installed, super easy in and out depending on how you want to ride that day.
