thinking of taking sawzall to sn

[cattledog]

i have had a sn since 95 this winter i put tubbies 2 on it, man this sn handles different now on flat very unstable,i guess i have to get used to it anybody else install tubbie 2 s on sn, and how do you like them

take some foam, glass, and filler and mold them into tubbie I's. just a thought... my I's made the boat feel nothing but better. tiny bit of chin walk at mid range, but other than, nothing but improvement. I have only ridden in the ocean though.

my take on Tubbies. They were designed to make the SJ's handle better on the race course. But it is a package deal, long ride plate and hull extensions. I have ridden a SJ in the surf with just tubbies and it handled well..... ridden the same boat on a lake it did not like it. Yamacat's SJ with tubbies, extensions and long plate handles great as long as there is some chop, when the water is smooth the nose hunts.

i wonder if matt_E will chime in...

 

[Big Kahuna]

you think!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love my tubbie 2s, but not at first. They take some getting used to, but they are a huge improvement, especially for agressive riding.

If you are considering sawzalling them off, give them to me.

And come get your pole/flame arrestor! Your square will be 100x better with a RN pole.

i have tubbie 1's on my superjet. they were hard to get used 2. but well worth it !! i ride rivers and lakes.

 

[Big Kahuna]

bottom line, you get use to anything..........

I custom made some large tubbies for my FX-1 this winter and I love it in the surf which is why I made them. On the lake I have grown accustomed to them but if I had a choice I would prefer not to have them when riding flat water.

True, but riding a superjet without tubbies after getting used to them made me realize what an improvement they are.

i put them then on my x2 and they are great, the x2 handles great in flat and i got to ride in some surf this weekend with them and your right i guess i was use to the ski without tubbies, what really threw me off was riding a 08 superjet man the things carves great, much different than a sn with tubbies

 

[brett]

love mine, dont hit the bottom nearly as often

its the narrower rear en that makes the 08s carve

Tubbies are the greatest thing to happen to my Squarenose. I have tubbie 2's

 

[Matt_E]

Both my SJ's have T-2's.

I don't like riding a SJ without them. All around better handling, lake or surf.
Doesn't impede freestyle moves, as alleged sometimes.

IMHO of course.

 

[Crab]

Made my RN handle like crap on flat water, just rocks back and forth at mid throttle, but out in the surf they are very nice!!!!! Genuine T1's

 

[Matt_E]

The chine walk is very noticeable when you first put them on.
Somewhere along the line, I got so used to it that I do not notice it anymore.

Tubbies are not for everyone, but I wouldn't have a SJ without them.

 

[tor*p*do]

I put some of the surfjetlouie sponsons on my SN
and it took a half dozen rides, but now I like!
took them on some big water this weekend and they did great
the twitch is a little unnerving at first:eek5:
like learning to ride all over again on flat water

 

[pimpchevy07]

i ride flatwater with tubbie 2's and i love them. i hate riding my other sj without tubbies.
