[shawn_NJ]

I didnt take any pics while we were there, but here are the pics my brother and GF took. Most of these were taken the weekend BEFORE the ride.

Haha I love the Rubbermaid battery tray ,classic!

[shawn_NJ]

I should add after 12days in FL this is what I came home too. Snow, Ice, frozen ridespot (river behind pool), and just general suckage.

I broke a seat once... I forgot to latch it securely and it fell off the ski on the interstate... :(

Looks like you guys had some fun. That is a nice one hander and a decent air.

[wadman]

that's cool. looks like some of them waves where good.

what was wrong when you got towed in?

was it pete that broke the seat?

[shawn_NJ]

Water in the ebox caused the tow in. And my brother broke the seat in 1/2.

[D-Roc]

glad to meet you two crazy brothers! You guys were going big everytime your skis where out. catch you guys again next year!

Who is the dude from NC with the purple seat? He always goes huge.

[ADDict]

Here are the few taken of my ski before I got it in the water. I had a blast. Ski ran great! I should have some X2 video footage in a day or two. Got a few of my first surf rolls on film. Wish I had way more time in the surf. I hate flat water all the time.

[Flash-FX]

Sunday, I was riding down on the south end of the"ride zone" on like 1" of water in the beach break. This guy on the X-2 tried riding around fast in 1/2" of water...for a little while. Sorry for the blurry pic.

[wadman]

same thing happened to me in NJ. but it was a bit worse i was towing some one in and they almost plowed in to the back of my ski.

[Mrs Cattledog]

So I hear, glad you wern't hurt.
Nah, just my pride and some majoring bruising on my legs....Mario and the lifegaurd were the only ones to see it.....but, the lifegaurd was telling the story and pointing at me....rrrrr....:buttkick:...lol.....its all good!

[crab]

[grasshopper]

I had my x2 up there but unfortunately not many pics.... I did successfully ride onto the beach many times..... No unplanned stunts for me....

[Wilke]

Heres some I have, my cam sux so sorry for the quality.

[ADDict]

thanks guys i feel the love. i don't feel bad though since pierre did the same



:spank:

There were way more than you two, haha. Theres a great picture of Matt doing the same! I got lucky and didn't go over the bars this time, but I've done my share of it.

[DezKnotz]

boo wish i could have made it this year i geuss ill see you guy at pensacola this year. sean hows your ski ben

[madscientist]

this thread died quickly

I think I mortally wounded it in daytona. Put a nice crack in the bottomdeck landing on sand. You driving to PCOLA? Have extra room on the trailer?

[madscientist]

bring it on biotches.

wheres the hazard brothers from ky w/ their footage?

[crab]

Yea, I want to see your aerial dismount.....:Banane26:

[madscientist]

me two, i was on the inside break tying to go big.

[ADDict]

I can't get the footage off the camera without investing more money than it's worth. Theres about 1 minute of total clips I want off this 8mm tape, and have no way to get it. We have a video capturing device but it only works with windows 98. PITA.

[madscientist]

my 8mm cam will conect via a cable to the usb, but at this time will not accept a tape. we use the mem cards in it now

booo that sucks. yea me and bri r trying to get r ski up and running so we can make the trip. iam not sure what we r driveing down or towing but if we can make it work we can bring yours and your bros skis down. is pete going

[shawn_NJ]

My bro will not be going. It would just be his ski (that I will be riding). I will not be done with my new hull by then.

I'll fly down..So if you guys have room on the trailer let me know. I'll hook you up with plenty of gas $$$. I doubt Pete is going.

[wadman]

i almost asked when it was then i looked up a bit and seen madscientist sig. for those that don't know, the NAVARRE BEACH X2TRAVAGANZA is APRIL 24TH-26TH

[madscientist]

wad load up and head down

[RAGS]

me two, i was on the inside break tying to go big.

that is the most BS i have ever seen you type :splatt:

here is the video in comments; mad rides on the inside scared to cross the shore break, eventually jumps a wave and bails, ski kind of goes sideways as he lands on his head. and if you doubt me send a SASE vhs to my house and i will make you a copy!!!

this is for the hazzard comment :spankme:

[Mrs Cattledog]

Sorry but that is some funny shiat right there:notworthy::notworthy:

[ADDict]

LMAO. Little ball busting going on in here..

[madscientist]

i thought you lived in hazzard county. my view was like this, ski running on 1 cylinder w/ occasional power of 2 cyl. firing properly for 60 sec. i pointed it twards a wave and hucked it. none the less failed roll, but brass balls to do it on the inside.

:lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao::lmao: refer to post #40.....
hehehehehehe...JK.....Luv u guys *winks*

absolute bs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#1 dont bring a none running ski to daytona
#2 dont bring a x2 with a 650 and think its the baddest thing to touch water since kantz and jacobs
#3 and any pro will tell you this, you dont go big in the inside its just plain stupid!!!
#4 dont talk shiet unless you can back it up
#5 how did that backie go :smashfreakB:

and granted i am busting balls and it might sound harsh, but go look at the last 6 months worth of post from mad and you can see i am justified.
brass balls? sheesh your lucky to have brass bushings lmao!!!

[madscientist]

my ski has bearings not bushings, and i made every effort to back up my mouth!!

down to the very last minute of the weekend. i was determined to do it in full. not to mention that i respect other peps stuff enough to not try it on a boat that i don't own!!!!

I WILL DO IT PASS OR FAIL...............

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG W/ A 650, just takes more effort and learned skill to do the same thing that a 20 more horsepower motor will provide.

don't be mad at me that it was and has been in the 70's all week, the ski is back up and running. we are shooting video next weekend do you think you can thaw out for the weekend and drive down?

[ADDict]

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG W/ A 650, just takes more effort and learned skill to do the same thing that a 20 more horsepower motor will provide.
Your right, there isn't anything what so ever wrong with rocking the 650 X2. Just don't claim to flat water roll it. I think most of us at this point have ridden plenty of 650's and mod ski's. I know you can get a little power out of them, but I need to stress, a LITTLE. If there is only 20 HP difference, 20 hp makes it like night and day.
I may be the only one to say it, but I know for 100% sure I'm not the only one thinking it. I've got thousands upon thousands of dollars invested in an arm-ripping X2. Sometimes, I literally think it could rip one of my arms off. I don't give a chit if you run rocket fuel 40:1 with magical fairy oil and ask genie to grant you some brap before you go out, it just don't hang. Especially on one cylinder.
I could go on for hours. In fact I could probably highlight each and every line of your posts, and write at least a paragraph or two about why it's wrong and full of BS. Your mouth write tons of checks that your ass and ski can't cash. No hard feelings, but you've had it coming for a while bro. Maybe you'll think about it next time you claim to be the second best X2 rider out there next to Pete Jacobs.

[madscientist]

i never claimed that i was the best nor was i anywhere a close second to pete. i can cash the checks and will do so. we are shooting hd this weekend coming up. just maybe i can sway your opinion on the 650. i was nominated for the backy and accepted the challenge with the confidence that i could do it (nothing more) had the ski been running right i would have tried until i went to the hospital or pulled it, thats just my nature.

and yes i take a lot of pride in my ski. i have put many hrs into it and don't have a problem talking about it.

justin

[ADDict]

I never said anything about a backflip man. I have no doubt that a 650 can pull a backflip with the right wave.

[DezKnotz]

:Banane35:this is great i cant wait for p cola free ride:djsmilie:
