all fun and games until someone loses an eye right. so what is the water temp there now? give us a few weeks and you will probably be seeing us. we will be looking for warmer water. :barrel:

because you live next to a big bathtub. yup....life must be hard....having to walk 30 yrds to ride and all! :moon:

that is a lie http://www.brap.org.uk/

Couchers!!!!!!!!! :slap:

i sanded (removed any gloss) with 36 grit length wise on the bottom of my ski and it noticeably changed the handling. groupk even recommends it somewhere on their site. in the past i have waxed the bottom of my skis and have always noticed that the porpoising got worse. there were tests done...

sand the bottom of your hull and get rid of that deep grate. the combo of these two got rid of most of my porpoising.

thanks! im glad that it has a good new home. im sure you will put good use to it. :biggthumpup:

i have been having alot of fun with this also. i ride up next to a bluff or bridge pillar to see how high i can get. so far i have only made it about 15ft up. great way to piss people off. :grumble: :wave:

thanks

awesome thread!! i am having the same issues with my deep scoop. handles great at low speeds but when i try to fly up the river my ski does as yours....starts porpoising. put on my stock grate and while it doesnt hook up as well it does stop porpoising. i put on my friends riva scoop...

nice...one of these days i will bass boat flake my ski. :biggrin:

ya know....i was about to post something like "sissy!!" but after looking at your nose i decided not too. :bigeyes: how in the world does a throttle which is on the other side of the bars do that!!

welcome to the x!! i use to ride couches also.....i still do if you consider b1's couches. hang here for awhile and you will be wanting a standup. they are addictive. :biggthumpup:

i have noticed the anti social standup riders myself when I was living in kc. For me it seems like sitdown riders are usually more sociable.

bummer.....i talked with chuck a couple of weeks ago and he said he no longer was selling xft stuff.....so i guess the only route is directly through sergio.

How does everyone contact Sergio. Email is a little slow with him. I called a Brazilian number and had someone on the phone that did not know english. I am wanting a handlepole bracket but even when I ask about it in email I get my questions only half answered. There is a language barrier...

mine is nothing but a toy and although it may be cheaper here than there it still cost me more than i can afford. is it worth it.......YES! :biggrin:

lol.......that is cool that they were into you and your ski. i love it when people make waves for me.

I have heard the "old school" thing many times. :biggrin: Actually i have heard most of those in the poll. Most of my friends wont touch my ski's. They might try for 30 seconds and if they cant just get up and ride off then they give up. The others that wont try are just intimidated by it...

Last night me and a friend of mine took apart his sj. He has bought a bb cylinder and we had to bore the top case to accept the bigger sleeves. While we were at it we opened up his carbs to see what his jetting was on his stock cylinder with b limited pipe. Low speed jets were 70's...stock...
