I like what you've done with it...but am curious as to the purpose of building up the back. Does it actually serve a purpose or just look cool. It almost looks as if it is for putting your feet on to get more leverage, am I close.

Also how does trimming the bond line like that affect performance?? I have heard of a few guys doing it but not much on how it handles.

Looks awesoem by the way!:cheer:

None other than our cool southeast vinyl master, Ollie Rastabean.
He said this was especially a bitch because to get the outlined look of the lettering, he had to use a larger white piece on the bottom with a larger black piece on top of it. He asked if I wanted to put the pieces together and I said hell no! I'll leave that part to the pros. He lined it all up perfectly and no bubbles! :hail:

This ski is for sale now, just have not advertised it. :cool2:

Ollie is THE MAN! he not only did my graphics (same double layer/color stuff as yours, he also drove down from clearwater to install them on my boat personally!!!!!)

Twist Graphix does not get enough love and respect around here.

ollie is so undercover, many people don't realize what a badass he really is (except WaveDemon!)

Ollies is the man,

big ups to all his work

That is funny we both had the square and the X2 and now I am sellling my Superjet off and you are selll the X2. It is such a pain to keep two piles of parts around for two different brands. Got any odds and ends for the X2 that might be useful for my cause?

How much are you asking for it, just curious.

I was hoping to get $1200, which I think is very reasonable for what all it's got. About all I have extra is a stock waterbox.
I would rather go to the dentist for a root canal than work on that x2. :banghead:

That is a killer deal! I will spread the word.

Believe it or not I like to work on X2's more than my SJ. I can get the Factory pipe on easier and the electrics never get wet or fail, (650 electric conversion). Bilge pumps are a total pain though. You prettymuch need to pull the motor to get swap them out. Motor mounts aren't bad as long as you keep the right rear one on the bed plate when you take it out. And I guess breaking the hulls in the middle is kind of annoying but I get them for free on the side of the road so I guess that isn't so bad. But I will admit they are an aquired taste.

You will be sorry Andy, I am bringing it back! :bananapowerslide:
