The Pictures One of me riding her in a straight line... lol

I will post some pictures of my FX1 later... I has undergone a full rebuild that is quite extensive. Could it be that I am not getting any weight over the front? I did shorten the pole by an inch and a half, but I am thinking I might cut another inch or so from it. I could be clutching at...

Cheers Guys... I will attempt to stick with for now and see how it goes...

You are right Motoman... I have checked this out. The FX1 pump is in fact a 122mm and because of that they run very different props.

JD scoop and ride plate... I have intentions of doing the 650 Kwak convo... Did you ride your FX before and after the convo?

I will give them a shout... Cheers for that...

Had a blast on a rapid 08 Kwak X2 last week and I thought it was just too easy! I just don't know where I am going wrong with my FX... Can I ask, what set up are you running? Prop and such like would be good to know also...

Any ideas where I can get one of these props?

I am 98.43kgs and 1.83 in height if this helps any..?

Don't really understand Propping to be honest... Plus that was the only available upgrade here in the UK. What will I gain from a 12/17?

Forgot to mention... I have been out on it about seven times now on flat water. I was invited to an open day at a club on the coast. I couldn't even get up on my ski in the waves! It was ALL over the place!

My experience is limited... I had a 650sx for about 6 months but only rode it three times. I did have a 550 for some time but that was years and years ago when I was a lot younger. The problems: I can get up, stand up, but as soon as I turn I fall off... Well... Most of the time... There are...

How long did it take you guys to get the hang of riding your FX1s. I just can't get into it... As a result, I am not enjoying what I have spent time and money on... Do you guys have any tips that may help me master my FX1? Would Tubbies help?

Its a cast head so you cannot change the domes... It would need machining I suppose...

Here is another question... Why are some heads girdled and some are not? Should cast heads be girdled?
