A friend and I are finishing up a pair of ground-up builds this week and was wondering if any carb tuning experts that will be at Wavedaze would be able to check them out and make adjustments as needed? If you would be interested, just PM me with price and availability. We should have the...

My riding buddy and I currently each have our own skis and split the costs of a Riva stage 3 RXP for a backup/safety/friend/GF ski. We rarely ride it however and usually our GFs just kind of putt around at 40mph. It usually costs us about $50 in gas every time we take the ski out and nobody ever...

I'm trying to find some black edge trim to go around the bottom of a carbon hood. It has a C-shape and just slips on without adhesive. McMaster only carries it in white and in 100ft rolls. Anyone know where I can get this stuff? Thanks

Bought a new B-pipe for my build and was wondering if there are any good mods to do to it before I install it. I will of course be port matching the manifold to my motor but I've noticed that many people bore the manifold/head pipe? Anyone have more info on this? The pipe has a Mod chamber and...

Is anyone going to have beach carts for sale at Wavedaze? I've been looking into buying one but shipping is expensive and I really won't need it until Wavedaze. I would like to pick it up on Friday if possible... if so, post prices/pics! Thanks

I'm working on prepping my ski for paint this weekend and had a few questions. I picked up 1.5 pints of Synergy Green (basecoat version) along with clear, hardener, and reducer. Will this be enough for an FX1? Right now I'm planning on just painting over a light grey primer but should I use a...

I've got a WDK pole bracket with a stock style (I think) hood latch hook. Will the Watcon hood seal work okay with this? I will also be using a Jetmaniac ratchet strap hood latch as well... Also, where can I get the pump seal that goes between the shoe and wear ring for a 144mm pump? Thanks

What is up with Optima Racing? I've never ordered from them before but they had everything I needed so I tried to place an order online. Kept getting a "no payment option available" error during the checkout and they won't answer their phone or email. Out of business? On vacation? After two days...

Trying to decide which battery to go with. I'm going to be using a lightened flywheel and EPIC, so no need to worry about total loss. I would like to find something lightweight. Any opinions? I'm thinking either Jetworks or Deka. Already searched and pretty much just found info on Ballistics.

So I was wanting to rent a beach house somewhere on the East coast this summer and go surf riding for the first time but my (:-):-):-):-):-)) riding buddy refuses to take his ski in salt water. That pretty much limits me to the Great Lakes. I really want a house right on or near a beach we can...

Are there any good resources out there that would be useful for someone just getting started in composites? I'm looking for detailed information on everything from cutting carbon patterns to vacuum infusion. A friend and I attempted to lay a bit of carbon in a tray last night and it didn't go as...

Anyone need a brand new Tom21 FX1 widetray? The only thing I've done to it is pull it out of the box. It will increase your tray width to 14.5", wider than an SXR! They are $125 new, I'm asking $60 + shipping/PP.

I'm trying to decide which pole to get for my F1 Pro... I really like the looks/weight/quality of the ATP pole, but I think the Xmetal pole might match the lines of the FX1 better and I can get them used for half the price of the ATP (no chance of finding a used ATP). Thoughts? Only pic I...

I need to do a few repairs to the bond line rails on a carbon FX1 hull I picked up and am planning on widening the rails ~3/4" per side. What would be the best way to go about doing this? Should I try to find some CF strips or make some kind of mold on the side of the ski? Right now I'm...

I got the itch to build a new ski this winter after my riding buddy bought a carbon REV hull a month ago. I hate to be stuck riding a plain ole RN next year, despite having just spent countless hours rebuilding it from the hull up earlier this spring, when he is zooming around on a nice AM hull...

Is there anyone in Ohio with an FX1 that I could ride? Looking at an FX1 AM hull, but would like to try one first. Sooner the better! You would be more than welcome to ride my 730cc drypiped RN or stage 3 RXP. I will likely be riding Saturday at Delaware resevoir or up at Erie around East...

So I'm considering picking up a full carbon WDK F1 Pro. I've been riding a stock hulled RN for about 1.5 seasons. Anyone have any experience with the F1 hull? I ride 75% flatwater and 25% baby waves at Erie... How do they handle compared to the SJ? Are they ridable at a reasonable speed for boat...

So my started up my Superjet the other day after a nice 1.5 hour ride and noticed that the idle is bouncing quite a bit. Today I pulled the carbs off to change the jets out and a few other minor mods and it did the same thing when I went to start it up. I've never had this happen before; Anyone...

I've been trying to get my ski tuned properly since I finished up the build a month ago but I'm still having problems with low end power. Motor is a ported 62T 730cc with dual 44mm SBNs, 190psi comp, Solas 13/17, and a R&D drypipe w/ Jetworks water injection. Jetting specs on the carbs: 115...

Well, after reading through the carb jetting thread I'm still not quite sure exactly what to start with. My motor came already built with a two SN package deal and it was claimed to have been purchased from some race team in Cali who no longer needed it. The motor does not appear to have been...
