I had a good time watching the freestyle on Saturday. For those of you who dont know me, I was that long haired freak in the blue shirt and khaki shorts hanging around the freestyle skis. My co worker got some good pics for you guys- I'll post them when I get them from him.

If I had know all of you were showing up for freestyle, I would have brought the Square. I was hoping to bring my Blaster, but I didnt get my turf in time- but no sport guys showed up anyway.

I am trying not to break it so I can sell it and get something to race in 800cc. I am leaning towards a 785 Pro.

There was a guy on a red Ultra if I am not mistaken. It was fast on the straights but he was losing too much speed in the turns. He didnt really stand a chance against that 15f though. And I also want to say I was real unimpressed with the Ultra 250's there. I guess I was expecting them to lay waste, but it didnt happen :)

IF you want to race 800cc get an X4 Seadoo.........

I actually know of a full limited for sale that is in ment condition.

I have a basket case XP, but I want a 785. They are much faster in stock trim- 150hp vs. 110hp in the X4. It is kinda like bringing a gun to a knife fight.

Ronny, U REALLY don't know what that means to me. I have been MX racing for a long dam time. Racers can be real pricks! I was SOOOO FREEGIN amazed at the behavior of my competition, THEY WERE SUPPORTIVE AND HELPFUL-WTF??? I have never experienced anything like it in my entire life!!

I LOVE FREESTYLE COMP!!! U will see alot more of me in the future!

ps-I've practicied my azz off at home on a 2 min run and can go for 2 hours w/ a small crowd, THAT WAS THE LONGEST 2 MIN OF MY LIFE!lol

Harrison is sooooo much inspiration to me, he is old, fat, and waaay out of shape, u know, like me, and he goes out and comes in 2nd to Ratti, HOW F'in cool is that??? Jesse is awesome, but he also has age on his side, I hope to see him in Ratti's shoes by next summer! And the other 2 guys I met can put together a really solid run as well. As for Ratti, what can u say but, DAMMIT MAN.

I've tried not to show my emotional side since I got home, but this is the coolest sport I have ever seen because of peeps like you and all the insane freestylers out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE THE X AND ALL THE MEMBERS!!!!!!!

Sad part about the number of freestylers on saturday.......... That was the largest single class....... there was not a race class with more than 4 if I am not mistaken. I never saw the pit board.

yeah but there isn't a stock class for 800 anymore. Limited was the huge equalizer in 800 sea doo were just as fast in limited and didnt break as much. or so it seemed. flywheel keys, cranks, powervalve failures were all very common on limited and superstock pro785s. Not too mention that they didn't start too often on the line. Not that seadoos didn't break but seemed pros were on the beach more often. Plus you can pick up a limited class seadoo for nothing these days.
