Custom/Hybrid XScream KONG Talk

[Martin33]

Since theres a thread for everything else, thought I throw a "Kong talk" thread up since theres being more built as we speak, also theres been more people test ride these. Heres a couple quick vids with them in action, and more to come soon. I picked mine up a few days before Daytona and have been riding it since, Xscream did all the installation- turn key boat, hull is very strong and reacts to every movement you make and is very predictable IMO. Have had no issues with the ski since ive had it, just a little tuning between water temps, love every minute im on it

So I guess, talk it up

Stoyer at WF 2011, KDX-1200

I've been waiting to see the hul features. What sets it apart from the rest?

 

[orangefinger]

the hull engine combination allows for you to flip with zero head rotation ( last flip ).....?? WOW impressive

 

[Martin33]

Dag, for me its all personal pref, I really liked the way it fit me, as well as the VERY clean looking finish inside/out of the hull. Rode Stoyers at body beach, and was in love ever since....

Very well said Daniel, I am also running a KDX1200 and like it a lot. It's a very well balance good handling hull, and the 1200 is no joke. Look for more feedback from this area very soon, as there are a couple more on the way.

I have seen a number of these being built (from layup to water test). Great attention to detail. A "complete package".

Nice riding martin33. there's a couple heading to the uk with different xscream set ups in them . Looking forward to getting a go On them

 

[sniper]

Are they available in different lenghts and weight also? or is every ski built the same?

 

[Martin33]

Lengths im not sure about, you'd have to call Xscream to get the details, but weight wise, obviously their glass version would be a little heavier....but a bit lighter on the wallet

[XS_Power]

The standard length of the KDX is 77”, and because of the extraordinary stability would work equally well in surf as in flat.
Our goal developing the KDX was to have a super short hull without the compromise. It took nearly three years to develop but mission accomplished
Custom lengths, and configurations are available, contact us directly for details.

Rick told me that the fiberglass version is not available anymore, is it right ??

 

[ZMG006]

I talked to them yesterday and they said they pretty much just do the carbon fiber bc thats whats most wanted.

 

['kotajoe]

Aka...they want people to pay more money

 

[Matt_E]

Right, because carbon fiber doesn't increase their cost at all and they can just pocket the difference from unsuspecting customers.

 

[keith t]

simple supply and demand

Freestylers demand Carbon, XScream supply

 

[ZMG006]

I would have to think that carbon fiber is more expensive to get as opposed to fiberglass?!?! Have no clue honestly...

 

[jay867]

Here is a little video of the ski I have been riding over in the UK for the past month.
Its Ant burgess 2010 world finals Kong hull fitted with his SS865, B-pipe, stock pump with TBM, stock electrics with msd enhancer.
