Am I right in thinking your single "sunny_az"?
Just because I don't think there is a woman in the world (at least any I will ever meet) that would let you put a ski in the kitchen!

But if your not single, does she have a sister?

I'm kindof curious sunny, but, what was wrong with the viper pole? :261: those 650 sx poles are big heavy bulky ugly turds.

Hey Zig, I'd love to sell the old pole, all 50 lbs of solid composite material. However, I did kinda crack it good. See below. I am still interested in your poles, just got a freeby to hold me over.
I took the big phalic pad off b/c it interfered w/ the start/stop switch...and it gave me a complex. The 650sx pole is used b/c I've got a 3" spacer under the bracket to raise it out of the recessed nose...no exterior bolts woulda fit orherwise, thus cables aren't long enough for a 550(which I got 3 or 4 in "storage"). The 650 pole is 2-3" shorter than a 550 pole. Coulda used a UMI -2, or a Dale's pole or a HS pole, but costs were unreasonable. If I ever have $500-$900 burning a hole in my pocket...
Hawk, that 650 pole is light as a feather compared to the VHP. Last year I installed the biggest air shock that would fit(110 lbs) and it still weighed 15lbs on the scale.
And yes, I do have a galpal and no, she will not step into the "bachelor pad from hell". What really irks her is I love my air mattress so much I sleep on it on top of my king pillowtop. Best sleep ever, and when I roll out of bed I drop out of bed instead of having to "get up". I'm not kidding.

Oh yeah, just got back from the lake...
IT F-ING ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now I know why some folks say the FX-1 has superior handling. Raised up the super-squirrel doesn't have so much a mind of it's own @ WOT.

Have you tried Don in Kansas? I sold him a hull and pole last year.
BTW, someone told me a guy selling a bunch of stuff on ebay looked like it was him. I woulda called but I lost his number when I lost my phone back in January. Gonna have to PM him over at the other pwc site.

oh yeah. i've known don it seems like forever. we talk all the time.
he had one, he was going to give me a while back. but now he is not sure if he wants to sell it.
this ski was my brothers, and i just got it from him the other day. i should have jumped at the pole before. oh well.
yes, i too have heard of the guy on e-bay. i have been trying to get a hold of him, but i can never get him, and he hasn't returned my calls. don was going to ask him as well.
no biggie, not like i need another ski to ride.

Tell me about it, just dropped the innards from that VHP into a JS400 hull.
Super squirrely.
Big thanx to the JSU guys for the hull donation...got more bling, mats, hood seal and footholds to install, but for now it runs.
