    Nice Joe! The helmet cam always makes it look cleaner than it actually was.

    The Destroyers are just really easy to put on, which makes a huge difference.

    BOB Review

    Hey Suzi... So, I can't really give you a good suggestion on how different boats would work for you. I weigh around 180lbs and I think we probably look for very different things in a ski. But you are more than welcome to ride this boat or any other I have when you are around. I really like...

    BOB Review

    Sorry for taking so long on the response... I was far happier with the way the boat planed out and handled, but I may have gone a little too far. Some time soon I will move the engine back and I will let you know how that goes. Keep in mind that the internal components are still moved...

    BOB Review

    Hey Peter...surf is looking pretty poor tomorrow, but I could probably bring both boats up on Sunday morning if you want to give it a shot. And as to the other conversation going on...for what it is worth I think the BOB is a great flat water freestyle hull especially when you consider the...

    BOB Review

    Thanks Nick, and I would love to ride that hull. And as to the rest of the comments, like I said the boat does what it was designed to do and it does it well. And there is no benefit to my giving any kind of a negative review on this boat. Some time in the very near future, this boat will...

    I never said anything about rolling around at WOT. I don't really appreciate your insinuating that I might be lying in the review. Read what I wrote.

    Hey guys, I've got a couple of friends looking for boats for the event. Maxime Baroero, is a two time French National freeride Champ and is a super nice guy. He is looking for either a stock hull or a Rickter with a flat water style motor and trim. Tim Allen is racer from New Zeland...

    BOB Review

    I like the intake idea...might be worth trying it without the grate on there and see how it goes. Right now we have a lengthened WR205 on it. Fuzzy gave me some good ideas as well. First step will be to move the motor and see what happens.

    BOB Review

    This past weekend I rode a 550 out at the river also, and rode an FX1 for a little bit on Wednesday. The BOB certainly turned better than that 550...but the stability issues are just different. Mine may be worse because I have weight farther forward, and we will see what happens with the...

    BOB Review

    Rode the superjet in the surf today for the first time since putting it up for sale a while back. I've got to say that my ride today further reinforced my thinking up to this point. The SJ is by no means perfect...but I certainly had a fun ride this morning. With regard to one of the...

    BOB Review

    Thanks for the kind words guys. Matt...I don't have a ton of time on other aftermarket hulls. I have probably 10 hours on one of the original Norbert Lightweight hulls, around 45 minutes or so on various Rickters (all FS1's but in the surf I like it) a little flat water time on the Q8, just a...

    Favorite Jetski scene in a movie

    Great thread! Josh Lustic and Jeremy Filips both worked on that movie. Jeremy seemed to think he had a shot with ole Angie while they were teaching her to ride. The roll in the clip is Mr. Lustic, one good indication is that the roll went to the right. I've talked about it with both...

    BOB Review

    So...this review has been a long time coming. And I've taken so much time to give my review of it because I wanted to be sure that I had sufficient time on the hull to really get used to it, and try to understand it as well as I could. I also wanted to have some other people ride it and get...

    Kommander Industries BOB Build Thread....

    Working on the review now...will post in the general section. Re Frogskinz. All totaled so far I've 15 or so rides with this boat, and it spent two days in Blythe in direct sunlight and they are still holding up well where I have them placed. I can't say how much water they are stopping...

    OK...I will get some thoughts together for a review and get it up some time soon in another post. Probably in the General section.

    Soon...do you think I should start another thread for that? Just keep this one as a build thread?

    Kommander Industries BOB Build Thread....

    This is a pretty new product in the watercraft industry. There are a couple of model specific kits out now, but they were originally used on snow mobiles. There is a hydrophobic membrane similar to (but not the same as) the outer wares on aftermarket flame arrestors. You can hold them under...
