If looks don't matter and it ain't no fasion show why put visual carbon on a hood?

Ehhhh, good point. Just paint it black. All black..

I was quoting ksarge91 when I said that. I don't really care if there is carbon or not. I was just pointing out an inconsistency.

 

[ksarge91]

how do you figure?

They make a nice product, but a poles a pole. RRP generates alot of their sales because of looks. If nobody cared about looks everyone would have AC poles. They came up with the whole idea of having a "tube" pole and now other companies are copying them because the look of their pole has proven itself. The RRP is heavy, bulky, and expensive, but yet people still buy it, because it looks nice. There are other poles out there that are just as strong for much less.

I give them props. They figured out what the consumer wants and are making a product to fit the bill.

Their hulls are flashy too, but I don't know enough about them nor have I seen one in person yet to comment.

You chezzballs are typing about "fashion shows" are you kooks for real
I want my boat to look good and be my style. Not some haggard peice.:Banane36:

That whole cheapazz poorly made parts just aren't for me. If you guys like your boats like that fine. But don't post about how great they are to sell product. :bs2:
It's funny goose deleted his account and went crying to make junk. I bet the only way he sells his junk is by this very website or his local noobes.:crying:

Bottom line. If you can't afford quality parts your better off saving your money than wasting it on something thats going to break.:bananajump:

 

[WaveDemon]

what is really strange is how all of his friends are posting for him now that he deleted his account.

 

[yankeeboy]

im suprised how everyone jumped onto the bandwagon to bash him as soon as he came out with a new hull design? i didnt know all you people had personal experiences with him- not just what so-and-so said.

 

[kraqus]

Well.... you know.....that is...just like....your opinion man.

Am I missing something here?

Is this an original design hood or a splash of another hood manufacturer? What is the advantage of using a 'goose' pole?

It's a splash of a 24/7 SR-71 hood. At $350 I would think that's a great price considdering WDK gets $399+shipping for a fiberglass hood. Goose kept offering to sell me his RN mold and some hoods, but each time I aggreed he couldn't deliver. (for the record I didn't care to buy anything from him, but it was entertaining to see how many times he would flake out after agreeing on a price) If he actually ever did really sell me either of his splashed hood designs I would have fainted.

30lbs is way outta line

Thats BS

 

[BruceSki]

Thats BS

wow... i have nothing to do with this drama... just making sure the facts are straight.

the stock pole weighs 8-9 pounds. not sure if you are just stirring more sh-t up, but i know thats what a stock pole weighs.


not 30 pounds. get out a scale and weigh a stocker. if its within +/- 2 pounds of 30 ill paypal you 20 bucks.

Trust me, if it was junk or questionalble it wouldn't be on my ski. Don't get your panties all wadded up because of people giving an honest review that just happens to conflict with your opinions.

 

[grezzmky]

pretty sure my pole (assembled) was 28 lbs DEFF not 8! if it was 8 then the goose pole is 2.

an xmetal pole weighs 11 to 12 lbs. I know for a fact that an x-metal pole weighs more than a stocker.

A stock pole is fiberglass with Styrofoam in the middle with a couple of thin cast aluminum ends. It doesn't get much lighter than stock!

do you use a giant waterlogged chinpad on the goose pole? why use one to weigh down a stocker. don't be dumb.


here pat bogart says the stock pole weighs 9lbs and so does his -2 xmetal pole.
