    Thrust EZ Trim install question

    I got my new Thrust EZ Trim in the mail yesterday. Thanks Brian! Got an install question, though. I have the cable adjusted to where it is very taut with the nozzle in the down position. When I pull the lever all the way, the nozzle is still not all the way up. I can manually move it...

    Huge Thumbs-Up to Thrust Innovations

    After losing 5 out of 7 parts of my trim system in the river yesterday, I called Brian for replacement parts. He hooked me up and helped me out in a huge way. Very appreciated, thank you.

    Double carnage

    I'm sitting at the Dr's office right now. Doing some flips off boat wakes, I snapped my already frayed trim cable (i wasn't using trim though), lost my trim ring, steering nozzle, and the ez-pulley assembly. As that happened, I lost all steering (duh). The ski pulled to one side and pulled my...

    Other Fun in the rapids

    I wish I had pictures of today. I went on a nice daytrip to ride rapids on the Spokane River in Post Falls, Idaho. There were five of us out there. I have no idea how rapids are classified, but it was moving fast. 15-20 mph? Some very nice standing waves - the best one was the size and...

    Now that I’ve been riding my Superfreak for a couple of weeks, I wanted to write up a detailed review of the hull and my experiences with Tem (who builds the Superfreak hulls, in case anyone doesn’t know this already). I have never owned an aftermarket hull before. I’ve always ridden a...

    Other Custom Ski Insurance Information Thread

    Super Jet Stock pole length please

    Could someone please measure the length of a stock RN Superjet pole? I am looking for a straight-line measurement from the center of the pivot bolt hole to the center of the steering plate hole. Some other threads suggest this: You see where I am confused. I am trying to figure out...

    Other Nice deal on a beach cart

    I saw this pop up on Craigslist Saturday night and called the guy Sunday morning. Said he used to race years ago and this was the only thing he still had left. Does anyone know what brand this is? He said he had ordered it from a catalog (Hot Products?) The tires are shot, but seem to be...

    Jetmaniac - Thumbs up

    Chris goes above and beyond, as always. He not only shipped me some parts in two days flat from FL to WA and included some a bunch of extra hardware, but also offered me his phone number should I need help with my build. Thanks!

    Custom/Hybrid Matt_E's Superfreak Build

    I picked up my Superfreak Badass hull from the Blowsion shop in Portland today. I took the day off work, left at 8am and just got back at 10:15pm. Nice day - We took the kids to Voodoo Donuts (featured on Man vs Food), went to lunch with good friends, got some Kershaw knives sharpened at the...

    Other Cold Fusion Billet Ebox mount

    http://www.blowsion.com/products/826-cold-fusion-billet-yamaha-electrical-box-mounts.aspx How does this mount to the hull? Does anyone have any pictures? I need to come up with a way to mount my stock Yamaha ebox in my SF hull. I don't have the stock mounts anymore, they left with my old hull.

    Super Jet How much HOK epoxy primer for a Superjet?

    Myself and a friend are trying to figure out how much primer and sealer to order to do his Superjet and my Superfreak. He's thinking we might get away with two quarts of each for both skis. Does anyone with experience with HOK products have any input? Thanks.
