Freestyle run the big hub 9/15... or swap in the big hub 10/16

[stagesrt4]

Im on the fences if i should swap in my buddies 10/16 over the 9/15 thats currently in my ski.

with the modded 701 the 9/15 seems like a great pair. Over the past months ive since made some decent upgrades in the power department... yet im still running the same 9/15 impeller. I dont notice any issue n ski still feels really snappy down low(so not sure what to do)

mods: BB 781 35cc domes, solas 144 mag, v-force II reeds, dual 38s, race gas, carbon limited pipe, protec grate, protec nozzle, lightened/drilled 61X flywheel, msd enhancer, JSS coil, etc....

Id have to borrow prop tool to swap them, so just seeing what others opinions might be(tho i know its an easy swap):bananalama:


cheers

I would personally try it. I was planning on running a 9/15, but found a deal on a solas pump and 11/17 hooker. I rode it with a TL on a stock 701, and it had a ton of kick.

so give it a go, its not like your low on the power to turn it.

I run a hooker 10/16 on my JM 735 with a TBM cone and bored nozzle.

 

[stagesrt4]

hmm ok I may have to give it a go then

I just ordered a stubby cone for the Mag as well.

guess swapping impellers will give me another chance to inspect the solas mag anyways.

Try it both ways and use whichever one blows your skirt up

I'm assuming thats in your AM hull? Only reason I ask is that in my experience, the weight of the total package can have some bearing on what prop will work best.

I have a somewhat similar setup, no race gas, but 781BB TBM, Limited B-Pipe, Enhancer, Solas Mag and I didn't feel a world of difference between the 9/15 and the 10/16. I have the 9/15 on it now, but...... If you told me you swapped it for the 10, I'd have to take your word for it.

on the foot rocket yes...

I mostly ride flat water(river) but have recently been out on the lake michigan surf.

she fairs well as is but only issue ive noticed is recovery after a trick is slightly lacking.... To help with that i chopped few inches off RRP pole but i also chopped the ride plate shorter

I ran a 10/16 with a 84mm Big Bore, Swapped to 82MM ported and ran the 10/16. It ran good, but could tell I could stand the 9/15

Just for grins, have that 10/16's pitch checked if possible. They are normally close to the advertised numbers, but can be off a tad too. My 9/15 was off a little..

 

[IS0LD0UT]

So I thought I had ordered and was running a 10/16 but saw the box today and it said 9/15. So I guess I don't know. Sorry.

ha nice Shawn

yea I swapped the 10/16 into my ski last week. Guess we'll see how she does in the surf at Daytona

 

[Sasquachcrap]

Well lets hear a report.

 

[stagesrt4]

I believe it helped.. But hard to tell since I tested it in surf n I've only ever rode flat water.

I also added a freestyle pump cone to the mag n chopped ride plate shorter..

I plan to stick with the 10/16 for now. Ski seems to jump out the water pretty quick, I'm just working on getting big enough balls to throw so back flips

 

[Sasquachcrap]

Would you be interested in selling the 9/15?

 

[stagesrt4]

Yes it's for sale but I think a local is taking it
