And on that same note...the freeride portion of the Motosurf series that was originally on Speed in 02 and 03 then hosted on SBT's website for ever was one of the first things I found when I started riding. Watching that stuff was what really got me excited about the sport, that and Yamaslut...
Can't argue with that...and the lack of a dealer network to buy new products with a warranty and a place people can get their boats serviced is a big problem.
That depends on your definition of a manufacturer. There are tons of new hull manufacturers. And it is pretty easy to build a boat these days without using a single part from an OEM. It is quite expensive to do that...but very easy.
Which is a bad way to do it. All you need to do is bring a receipt and list of goods to the DMV to get a homebuilt title and a VIN issued.
We may be on 4 strokes in 2015 or maybe our ES1 project or something similar will be a viable boat at that point and everyone will be electric. Or maybe...
Just my $.02...
I think DJ and Nick are pretty right on with what they have said regarding facebook, I'm sure lots of forums are experiencing a similar shift in traffic.
And as far as the sport dying and the OEM's pulling out...I think the OEM's pulling out is a great thing! Aside from the...
First off...Lee rocked it. And it is hard to argue that he is not the best flat water rider on the planet right now. Although you guys should know that Ant Burgess did pull the flat water super flip off first, although not nearly as extended. Lee would have won even with out the super...
Any month besides September and October are great. There is just waaaay too much else going on in October. World Finals, Jet Waves, Hossegor Air Festival, Pismo Rager. If you guys can continue to grow this event, it will draw people from around the world like Daytona does. So there is no...
It is on their facebook page.
Hey Andrew...if you are back to getting all riled up on here again does that mean your riding also? Would be good to see ya again.
This is a project that has been in the works for longer than some of the members on here have been alive.
I'll agree the poster leaves something to be desired...but I also know Larry has a lot of himself invested in this project and he has worked for a really long time to make it a reality...
I just used one on our new boat. I will let you guys know if it fails. I've probably only got 40 or so hours on it at this point...maybe a little more.
The nice part about this bolt is that you don't have to grind the head to make it fit, and it is a cool looking piece.
Little Chris is the future and he rides that hull really well, I'm really looking forward to watching him progress over the next couple of years. Wish you had gotten his flip.
Jack absolutely killed it. Especially considering how little time he actually has in the surf. Not to mention that...
Thanks for posting that...I'm sure you will find there was lots more exciting riding in some of the other heats. Surf was a pretty big challenge in the final.
I've got a spare ski and would be honored to have a newly graduated Marine ride it. I don't get on here all that much but you can email me Ross.Champion at yahoo.
I will try to keep an eye on this thread though.
Call me when you are going to head over! If for what ever reason you find yourself in O-side without one of the locals, be sure to keep north of the river mouth on base. That will keep the lifeguards more or less happy and you out of trouble.
