congrats! Did you use trim for that flip?

 

[leepot]

cheers guys yeah trim was used and as i was making my wake, the sit down followed me round to double it up which gave me a decent ramp. Gonna keep at it and then try off my own wake!

 

[Polish jet pilot]

you feel the power that you have will pull it off?

 

[Polish jet pilot]

asking as I have a similar setup and rode the ski maybe a 40 min total and worried that my motor might be still too small..darn lack of skill on my side is certain.lol. but motor size could be an issue...just thinking out loud..no disrespect!

 

[leepot]

Well thats whats cropped up in my mind at first which is why i tried it off a doubled up wake before my own wake. I think that once my technique gets good then thats the point where I can start to try off my own wake and improve from there. Also, im after a Skat Trak Magnum Pump so hopefully with that then the hookup will be loads better!

In my opinion, I think it can be done. Well, it already has been done by Rok Florjancic on the XFS promotional video!

 

[Polish jet pilot]

true, true, but that was a carbon/kevlar special hull - your's glass? Mine is..

 

[leepot]

Mine is glass yeah, but he was riding a stock engine where as were both running modded engines with higher cc's

It's gonna be hard to get it, but its a good goal to aim for!

I am in the same situtation as you guys but on a gen 1 Bob with a jetmaniac 718 does the trim help with the rotation alot ??? I just indtalt a solas mag you sjude get one they realy work good

 

[Matt_E]

Yes, trim helps with rotation A LOT. But you lose height.
