I got to ride one at Body Beach during the World Finals last year. It has a limited 701 in it with a horrible exhaust leak!! But, that being said I was able to at least feel out the hull. It was very capable for the lack of power that was in the hull. The whole time I was riding it I kept thinking to myself "God I wish I could have my LPW 760 in this!!!"

I know there is quite a bit of BS that comes with Jeff and I've seen it firsthand. That being said, if I came across a good deal on a used carbon hull I'd probably jump on it. I only have experience on ROK's, BOB's (gen 1,2, & 3), and a Trinity Matrix when it comes to AM hulls. I feel like there are soo many hulls out there now a days that anybody buying a hull needs to ride what they are buying before they spend any money.

That looks like Kenny's hull in the picture. I thought he had a WDK 1200 in that for the body beach demo.

It wasn't Kenny's Hull. That Hull with the 1200 in it was on the beach. I didn't know Kenny at the time. I really wanted to ask if I could ride it, but seeing as it was a customer's personal ski I didn't.

One complaint I did have about the ski was that it would instantly go super nose high is you did something wrong. I think some of that was due to the horrible state of tune that the motor was in. I'd really love a chance to get on another one that runs good, even just a 701 that's dialed in, and see if it would be as good as I think it can be.

Personally I think there are probably better performing hulls out there, but the quality of these hulls and the price point of them is hard to ignore.

You are 100% correct about the exhaust leak. It sucked because it wasn't there until Havasu. The Factory Pipe chamber had a 3" crack where the coupler flange is. Oh well, problem was fixed when I got back to shop. Sorry for that. The crazy thing is people were still flipping bottom to bottom with it running that bad. It was more like 650 power...lol

Don't know if it applies..
I rode Sanoman's ROK when he visited a while ago. (pre-freak).
As an sj rider I find it hard to make any kind of judgement when it comes to AM hulls. Not because of the hulls, but because of the extreme power plants that they often contain.

Don's ROK had reasonable x-scream power and I rode it in surf.

It took some getting-used to, but I thought it was great. Could not make it pearl, turned on a dime, lots of room in the tray.

I felt that it would be a great surf boat. I know nothing of flat water.

Could not make it pearl? Holy crap, I cant keep mine from pearling in the surf. Noses in and keeps going in.

Sorry, nothing to add about the ROK-R as mine never showed up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you dig yours Charlie.

I went to jeffs shop and rode the rokr and the rok. the rokr was having carb issues so it was very underpowered. Being 225lbs it was hard to get back up on it out in the water but i did have fun riding it. I wouldve like to ride it with the longer ride plate tho for sure. i think that would help out a lot. The fit and finish was very nice though, much nicer then the superfreaks are thats for sure.
