Haven't got to ride my Chan as much as I'd like lately but got off early enough today to take it out for a bit before dark. Threw a few flips and an aborted flip that I just threw a half assed 180. The last flip shows the stability of the Chan, the ski died on impact and I was able to sit there, get it started again and ride off but my girlfriend cut the clip short, haha.

Just made it for a little extra safety to keep large debris and body parts out of the pump. Scoop grates hook too well in my opinion on my Chan. The grate I made almost feels like it loosened it up quite a bit more, but I'll have to get a second opinion on that :)

That being said, I may play with some different options/ideas to get a nice balance.

That grate looks sweet. I want one like that to keep my hand out of the pump. You should make some more.

Nice riding! Great quality video that isn't a mile away too.

I almost had a grate like that made but gave up when I decided I like the scoop grate. I'd be interested in trying one like that out if you have any more made.
