It would be cheaper to fly, I just checked Southwest flights LAX to SFO $139 round trip. You could fly up on a Sat morning, the 6th works, ill pick you up and go for ride, spend the night at my house, fly back Sunday morning, I'll transport you to and from airport.
I coming down to SoCal this weekend thru next Friday but I'am picking up a new trailer I bought from another member and visiting with family so bringing my trailer/ski won't work.
I'am not set up to haul it in the bed of my truck, I could build a 2x4 rack and bring the beach dolly and gear but the wife would to go for all that.....
More than happy to help just not sure how.
For what's it's worth I bought my Vision without ever test riding a single aftermarket ski. I went from a dry piped 53 mph limited 96 SJ that I rode for years to a freeride/freestyle build 01 SJ, 9/15 hooker, b-pipe mod chamber, ADA 35cc, -4 poll, Blowsion steering, straight bars, footholds, D cut plate Etc.
I looked at the Vision and other brand hulls, almost bought Brandon Lawlors surf hull, talked with a few more knowledgable people and found a Vision hull was the best fit for me, I didn't want a backflip only boat or a full length heavy Surf boat, I needed something more in the middle but still capable. The -4 Vision encompasses that and was reasonably priced.
Steve always answered the phone, answered all my text msg even while he was at free rides, did everything he said he'd do, when he said he would do it, and built my ski and had it delivered in my hands by the date I needed it!!
Now when I get back on the 01 Rn it feels like such a turd, I'am glad I pulled the trigger and haven't regretted it one bit!
SoCal is a big place where do you live ?
