    Freestyle To TL or not to TL...

    So finally, after a few years of buying upgrades, I have gotten my boat about where I have always wanted her. I am doing flatwater flips with ease, and while my boat is capable of flat spins, my body is still figuring it out. 99% of my riding is chasing boats on a 4 mile stretch of river and...

    Xscream Trim Install Issues

    Hey guys, Swapping my Thrust EZ pull trim out for Xscream with the coupler mod and having some issues on install. My turn nozzle resting position is about -5 degree, which isn't a huge deal I guess as ill plane out better chasing boats. But, it is going to be putting a lot of tension/stress...

    Freestyle Reeds shot...I think?

    Vf3 reeds installed about a month ago. Starting noticing issues about 2 weeks ago where motor just was not hitting as well as it was. Subbed pretty deep off of a failed backflip and when i came up it did not want to start (worse than normal water ingestion clear out), ever since then it has...

    Other Jetsurf

    Anyone ridden one of these things? Looks like it would be pretty sweet to have to just cruise since my flatwater ski isn't super comfy to just relax on. http://www.jetsurf.com/

    Freestyle Fuel Starvation

    Been working on the break-in period on my new ET967 and shes hitting like a train. Ran into an issue today which was the first time i was taking her above low/mid throttle. At about 3/4 throttle ski runs out of fuel and dies. First time caught me off guard and I went right over the nose. I am...

    PFP pipe + Braap Werks Tank = ???

    So thought i was going to get my ski together tonight but my 5.5g tank is not playing nice. Does anyone else run this with a PFP? I bought it specifically to run with it but after shoehorning the tank in the ski, the corner of it is rubbing right up against the stinger right before the water...

    RRP Pipe Vs PFP

    I have spent the last few days reading all the threads I could find on this and the general consensus seems to be... RRP = harder hit low end and better for single tricks, fits in hulls better??? PFP = Harder hitting mid and highs but harder to tune and water jackets can break (possibly a big...

    Freestyle ET 967 Setup?

    Sooo...I have a new ET967 showing up in about a week and hoping you guys can help me get in the ballpark for tuning. I have reached out to Art but he is pretty slammed and haven't been able to get any info out of him yet. It will get dropped into a -8.5 carbon superfreak badass w/ Bpipe Dual...

    Freestyle Which ET Motor?

    So it looks like i am going to get to pull the trigger on a new motor in the next few weeks. I have been doing some research and I think i am sold on the ET line. However, I am not sure which one to get, 967 or 1107. I primarily chase boats on a river and stay in a 5 mile stretch, but with the...

    Freestyle Engine issues...Stumped and could use some help.

    Stumped on a issue and need some assistance! Last Sunday while riding i noticed a issue where maybe 1/3 of the time my ski came out of the water the motor would stay rev'd instead of winding down once i got off the throttle (throttle cable is not sticky). Other than that it ran great and didn't...

    Super Jet Thrust issues...

    So my buddy and I were riding last Saturday when he said his ski lost all power and the engine start hitting a much higher pitch (noise) than normal. He said he sounded similar to when he threw a belt on his car for what that's worth. We towed it back to shore and I took a look at the insides...

    Super Jet Ski ran great for a week..now its dead in the water...halp!

    Ok so the problems never end with this damn thing. Rode for a week worry free...was hitting hard and reliable, started up fine all the time and was overall fun for once. Towards the end of the last day it ran well I had a pretty hard crash off a 40' cruiser. Held onto the ski but as i have no...

    Super Jet Total Loss Issues

    I have a MSD Total Loss Digital Multichannel system that I got with a ski I bought awhile back. Here is my problem: Ski will ride normal till I either A) Jump or B) Submerge it all. My theory is that water in the bay due to my leaky scupper is hitting a wire and shorting out part of the...

    Other Boat mounted Jet Ski Davit

    Hello! So I am about to start on a DIY project and have been unable to find anything on the interwebs detailing someone else taking on this project. I am hoping that this is just due to me being the first guy to think of it and not that its impossible to do. Basic idea: I have a...

    Freestyle Found a ski, but not sure it will work for freestyle...

    Seems like it is modded more for racing than for freestyle. I do not plan to race and am limited to lakes to play around it. Should I give this one a pass? I am afraid it won't have the low end hit to play around on the lake. Selling a 1999 superjet with a ton of work and parts. $4800...
