Wax Racing SuperJet Exhaust Hose - Short?

[JuvyD]

I just received my Wax Racing SuperJet exhaust hose and I bought it looking for those few extra inches of length and it seems likes its actually shorter than the JetManic hose I have. I compared it to similar hoses I have in other aftermarkets ski's and it's at best the same length.

Has anyone else bought one and found this same issue?

The picture below is a JM hose (top) vs the Wax hose (bottom) and then the second pic is the hose installed in my V3 hull...it could definitely use a few more inches to get up to the waterbox location.

Well that blows. I bought a wax hose in blue because no one else had a blue hose for my freak which is basically the same overall length or very close to.the v3.

you can use a section of RRP Handlepole Tube as an extension.

My suggestion is a Joiner and another silicone hose section.

I think you sold me a OE SXR joint for my Envy years ago?

I kinda thought all hulls needed 2 sections?

Yeah I know a piece of pipe can be used but why not just make it long enough to start with?

I had to add extension for my freak using the Rad Dudes Hose..... I think this is a freak issue, I do not have an extension on my Edge.

Probably because you can't please everyone, if it were longer then people would be bitching about haveing to cut it off, that's a fact right there !

Not if it was advertised as such. E.g., “This hose is intentionally long to fit the variety of hulls on the market.” Taking a razor to hose is way easier than cobbling together extensions.

Definitely easier to cut what you have than to have to buy more pipe and hose to fit your application

glad i saw before i ordered one. the raddude hose i have in one ski is right on the line of being too short to use.

Come on guys it's internet inches, you know like you tell your girlfriend.

Can you send me the length it is please. We made it longer as the pipe we bought for a stock superjet from one of the other manufacturers was to short. I have fitted it in a superjet with no issue and that’s the longest hull there would be in my mind. Is it like it’s skimped on the stainless exhaust pipe for the hull, I have updated the advert and sorry about that.

I had my hose in my superjet, when I got the Freak it was too short. (Rad Dudes).

This^^ my a/m hulls have a good amount of exhaust pipe coming into the hull and I have had to cut my raddudes hoses to fit properly.

Here's a couple pics of how I measured it..let me know if you want it measured differently.

The wax hose fit my freak without having to cut or splice anything. I'm happy with it.
