Alright so I am in the market for some sponsons. I am going to start to get serious about racing my superjet, in the vintage class, this year and I want to make my superjet handle the best it can. So I was wondering if we could review the different sponsons made by different companies. Basically I want to hear from people who have ridden sponsons other that blowsion tubbies and how do they like them compared to tubbies? Overall any info on the companies that make sponsons and how you like them would be helpful because when I searched all I could find was stuff about tubbies. I noticed there has been a lot of talk lately about sponsons and maybe this thread could become the go to thread on sponsons. P.S. When I did a search I noticed waterdawg hinted at that he may start making sponsons; however it was only a hint.

Here is a list of companies I know make sponsons
Blowsion (tubbies)
Watercraft Factory
Wamiltons
The Taiwan Man

I have 3DR sponsons and like them a lot for rec. and bouy riding. They aren't fat like tubbies, and don't make the nose ride high.

I still make the front sponsons at the same promo price of $125 ship to 48 states.
