Custom/Hybrid Whats a good aftermarket Hull thats good for flatwater and ocean riding?

[evo8coop]

as the title says guys... whats a good hull that i can use all around... im really into sxrs and racing but i kind of wantt to get a feel for freestyles and learn to back flip and do all those cool things... what hull is the best for all around riding and motor should i use? as of right now im just looking around to see whats out there i can sell my skis and get something around 5k to 8k probably let me know

thanks

5-8K for just the hull?

Best all around flatwater, chase boats, Surf IMO is the Superfreak badbass

The ski performs very well at all types of riding, at all skill levels... that why you see a lot of guys buying and building freaks... Also dont see many for sale, if you do most guys are building another one... Theres a lot of very cool A/M skis, I love my XFS/XFR but its not for everyone...

 

[Jawbreaker]

Boy that's a loaded question... your most definitely going to get some biased answers...

Not sure there's a good hull for carving buoys and backflips...

 

[evo8coop]

i dont nessecarily neeed it to carve buoys... ill have my sxr for that. i was really looking to spend 5 to 8k total with motor or ill spend round 6k on a hull... if anyone in the north east has one id really like test ride it and get it feel for it or any other hull. i like opinions id mainly ride in a harbor connected to a sound and sometimes go to the ocean.

thanks

SUPERFREAK FOR SURF is by far the best I have ridden. But the FS2 is nice too in surf.

5-8k with motor, forget it. The cheapest hull is 4k NEW, SF are 8K in carbon with hood no paint no turf. Your best bet for 8k its a used BOB.

[evo8coop]

[suva]

[evo8coop]

You really should ride a few hulls... I would suggest trying a Superfreak, Kong, Rickter, Bob , Q8 to see what feels right to you....

But its hard to go A/M ski complete RTR for under 15K... Not saying you can't, but you get waht you pay for

 

[evo8coop]

how does that ride in the ocean? rarly will i be riding in flatwater unless theres no one out on the water i plane on jumping alot of wakes... i dont know if that helps.... can ppl give me there opinion on why the hull they are saying?

thanks

I cant say better then that............Find your budget for the hull, try it and after buy.

 

[evo8coop]

im willing to do work thats not a problem... i dont want a hull that has been cracked tho. the motor i dont nesseccarily need to buy right away

 

[raytherace]

are you looking for new or used ??

 

[DK-Freestyle]

The BOB Hull sells RTR 701 Gen2's for about 13k.
