spare parts rn

[ryan]

wammer lowered hood kit. race hood lets see how long it lasts.
i need a chin pad if anyone has one the want to part with.the stocker wont work.

 

[BruceSki]

you shouldve ran that reinforcement further up to the nose... my ski started cracking gelcoat right at the front corner of the hood but on the hull when i started learning stabs. if i didn't reinforce that spot it would've continued to crack down the hull.

 

[kiddioo]

Don't race hoods let in more water? Which can't help when learning new things.

 

[ryan]

better then no hood!!!

 

[kiddioo]

That's very true.

[Big Kahuna]

those Octane poles (If it is not the later UMI version) are really long to begin with.

 

[ryan]

thats y we cut so much out of it. its from #205 of the 1st octane's. ted and joe its all you. just let me try and bust it 1st!!! lol
need a stock ride plate anyone got one?

 

[ryan]

ok ran into an issue today found out who ever put the foot holds in used 1 yes 1 rivet and some sort of glue the does not stick to fiberglass. so they are falling out. got no time to fix this the right way so. a few screws and away we go!!

hey Ryan i have a stock plate........if your still looking for one give me a call

 

[nokfir]

think bruce it comin to grab my plate

 

[BruceSki]

rode that ski today with the short pole and pro-tec freestyle plate. handles the same as my ski with the worx freestyle plate as i have the same tubbies.
The trim lever is ridiculously hard to pull though. don't know if they have a cable issue or if trim is supposed to be that hard. its basically impossible to pull the lever while moving, even at an idle. MSD enhancer in the ski is crapping out. Ryan is swapping the CDI tonight so it can be tested again monday morning and ridden monday afternoon once its running right and registered.


Stock Square plate is d-cut and on my hull now.
i rode with the stock d cut plate and landed my first flat water stab off my own wake today nosed in. i have never been able to get any pop off a setup wake with any other rideplate. i guess thats why all the flatwater guys run d cut plates.

we will see how miserable it is to get the ski through the inlet to the waves tomorow though with the short plate. i imagine it will suck.

i think ryan is going to pick up that stock plate from adam and d-cut that one as well for his ski.

 

[ryan]

replaced the msd cdi with a good one. rejetted the 46 from a 117.5 to 120 changed the spring from a 115 gram to a 95.it sounded lean down low (didnt ride it only listened) test ride again monday.

 

[ryan]

rode it today. carb still not 100% went to a 2.0 needle helped the mid some still to lean going to try a 125 low next. trim is cool. no waves to really mess with today. just getting used to the new boat. short pole is nice. few small stabs no water getting in the hull.guess the race hood works good
still sore from sundays ride. lol

 

[ryan]

bringing this one back. ripped it apart again. going to paint the inside of the hull.got the hood painted did some stickers. may cut the tray out and de-foam it. powder coated some parts. trying to make it look nice so when i send it to davie jones locker it will look good for him. lol

 

[BruceSki]

It does look pretty sharp now. what color you painting the inside?

 

[Devilock]
