    Other burn industries - wtf?

    I recently purchased a life jacket from burnindustriesusa.com but they have yet to contact me whatsoever regarding shipping or estimated date of shipping. I did get a receipt of purchase but that was it. Im usually wary of online purchases anyway (a habit of always being a little too paranoid I...

    Other stand up rentals?

    Do any of you guys rent out your stand ups or know of places that successfully do it? I had a conversation with a friend as to how successful one could/couldn't be if they tried, assuming it was done in a nice location. just thought i'd see if any of you do it? I know I would pay to rent one...

    Other Why isnt anyone competing with yamaha in the mass production of stand ups?

    Humor me for a minute people. I'll admit first and foremost that I realize the higher price of AM hulls has many contributing factors, i.e. limited quantity production, increased engineering costs for the high performance designs, increased material costs for the higher quality composits, etc...

    After reading about hollywood hood's accident and the fact that his impact vest probably saved his life im thinking about buying one for myself. I'm just hung up on the fact that they dont typically float you if you get knocked unconcious. I realize they are inherently less buoyant but are...

    Other Quick stupid question

    I'm going to be removing some decals soon. I was advised on here to use a rubber eraser wheel. I've found tons of them online but I cant find any retailers that carry them locally. I kind of want to just go down to the store and pick one up. I'm one of those instant gratification guys. shipping...

    Other Has anyone put together a list of all production stand up jetski specs?

    I have several friends looking to get skis now and they want to know which one to buy. I've told them over and over to just go with a superjet but some of them arent sold. They keep asking, what makes a superjet so much better and why do they cost so much more? I dont have the specs on every...

    Super Jet should i be worried?

    While i was cleaning the ski today i noticed these cracks near the hood seal. I havent done anything crazy on it other than one unsuccessful attempt at a barrel roll about a month ago, and those cracks didnt show up until after another 5 outings. the hood is definitely cracked which makes me...

    Super Jet you know what they say...once you go black....

    ....you wish you'd gone blue. I've had my black 2013 SJ out to the lake about 10 times. I've always traveled with a cover on it hoping to protect the black paint from surface scratches from rocks/debris etc. I think i ended up doing the opposite. Now every square inch of the ski is covered in...
