Blaster Wet filter?

So i got my blaster running great... Rebuilt carb, new prop, tuned carb and all new fuel lines and filter.

The ski rides awesome, brappy and smooth power.

My issue is that if i get the nose under water and the inlet tubes take on water the ski acts up... feels like its choked up with fuel. So my bud told me pull the filter off the flame arrestort (riva) and take it for a spin. Sure enough it rode great. Shook out the filter and popped it back on and it road great.

what do you guys to to avoid this? should i got back to the stock air box? will i notice any loss in power?
