Every year a bunch of you guys who come for World Finals usually stop over to ride Oceanside mid week before heading up to Pismo for the JK Free ride the following weekend. Unfortunately for myself, I will not be able to make the JK Free ride at Pismo this year, so I'm looking forward to...

I have 2 Super jets. One has shims on the top two bolts while the other has none. The one with no shims doesn't have any "Ghost marks" on the bulk head as if it had them at one time. Are ALL intermediate housings suppose to be shimmed or do some just line up better than others? The one with...

Since our ability to ride is directly porportionate to the cost of gas, I was wondering which countries have the least expensive gas in the world. I googled it and according to an article in MSNBC, the following 10 countries have the least expensive gas in the world today 1. Venezuela —...

I've lost 3 start stop relays in the last 2 years. I very rarely ride my SXR so I'm thinking they should last a little longer. I ride my Super jet pretty regularly and it has never lost one. Are there any factors that contribute to these things going out, like improper grounding, etc, or does...

After reading the wake board boot thread I was wondering what, if anything everyone does for ankle support. When your Surf riding, it doesn't take much of a wave to get some ridiculous height. I'm currently using the Chuck Taylor Converse high tops because of the added lace support but I'm...

Everyone who rode scored some epic waves! I'm going to get me some more of these tomorrow!

Mike Young, Christian Youngs father, busted out his first ever backflip this morning! Congrats Mike!

I've always liked the 08 hull design but I have heard they don't slide well when ridden in the surf. I was just wondering if anyone has thought about filling in the depth of the chines? The 08's chines are deep, which is most likely why they grab so hard. I'm thinking if you fill them with...

I'm just curious. My wife brought up what a crazy name it is and I kind of agree. Almost implies Johnny's original goal was to be a Coke dealer but had to settle with becoming a Jet ski parts supplier, haha! Anyone know where he came up with that name or what it means- if anything at all?

REFOAMING WITH OEM STYLE NOSE FOAM I have been avoiding that terrible subject of removing and replacing my water logged hull foam for as long as I can now, but its finally caught up to me. This is a nasty job, and I only want to have to do it once, so after reading several threads of all the...

Yeah I said it! You know why? because it's true, and I would know since I own both. Now before all you SJ worshipers get your panties in a wad, let me be clear, I'm not saying an SXR is a better all around ski as that award clearly goes to the Super Jet. What I am saying is that Kawasaki did...

So I'm looking through the parts microfish on DGY and noticed that thier is no mention of nose foam, as if it wasn't even part of the ski. Did I miss something or does Yamaha simply not sell replacement nose foam?

Over the years , I have seen a lot of good posts for suppliers for hard to find items we use, such as angled and regular silicone couplers, SS FP Manifold bolts, Tote tires and rims, etc. I have been keeping my own directory for any future needs, but for some reason my directory got corrupted...

John Howe, Matt Smith and Curtis Udal score super clean Oceanside

And it works so good for cutting wind chill on those early morning rides! It comes oversize, so it fits over your PFD but it's not so sloppy fitting that it gets in the way. Keeps you warm, doesn't reduce your flexibility, This thing is great- Go get one!

I have a beater hull I'm working on that's going to need a re-foam. I plan on going with a closed cell polystyrene. Ideally I want to use a foam identicle to what Yamaha uses for the nose foam, as this foam is not only waterproof, it is also petroleum resistant. I'm thinking Petroleum...

Not trying to start a battle, just curious why you like/dislike yours- Pros, Cons of each. IMO Pancake Pete's is more ergonomic but I went with Tomski's because its thinner so it leaves more open dash space for stuff like bilge pump exits or hood strap and pole limiter attachment points...

I would like to get a little more "Flick able" feel out of my skis handling WITHOUT cutting the hull any shorter. I'm not sure if this is even possible. I have noticed the trend on most aftermarket hulls for the pump to be mounted set back to the point its protruding out the rear of the hull...

What size restrictor works best in the stinger water line on a B pipe? I'm trying one that's about an 1/8 of an inch tomorrow, hope that's not to small

Just curious, what mod did you do to your ski that you regret or just consider a waste of cash/time? Mine was an R&D O-ring head. It wasn't a nice interchangeable dome head either, just a straight OEM replacement. I was thinking I'd save $ on head gaskets and add a little bling. Big...
