    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    Looks like this threads gonna die again. I'm ditching the fixed steer FX for now. I'm putting my square back together. I miss my square

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    I'm still looking for the broken/cheap pole and old FX hood. Once I have those, I can put it together pretty quickly

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    Maybe I'll have it ready for LSFR October! It's just a short drive to the Texas coast. J/K. I could take it to Daytona though.

    Johnny, first thing to learn about stand ups is it aint about speed. It's about ballance and skill. It's abourt riding with friends and pushing the limits of each other. You will get the hang of it. But ride that kawi for a while till you can get your hands on a SN or older SJ. You'll...

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    Well, I need broken parts. I have the good ones. I'm not cuting up a perfect hood and pole for this. If I don't like it, I can always go back in just a few hours. I need a broken RN pole and a narsty FX hood. I would think someone would have some trashed parts somewhere. But I know what you...

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    Thanks. Ive been mocking it up for almost a year now. I think I have it just where I want it. From there, its a matter of how tall the bars are. With the stock VXR bars, a 6" guy like me stands just slightly hunched like I would on an X2. My feet are just about an inch more forward than on...

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    Yea, i know what you mean. I used to do kan kans and such with my pole. I even used to let go and spin around 360 in the trey. That all ended with a 'Nothing' 30 feet in the air in Jacksonville. I missed the bars and went crashing into the ski. Broke my right Fibula and wrenched my left...

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    I got a 100 bucks shipped for a broken SJ/FX-1 pole and a nasty beat up FX-1 hood. Some body has to have those laying around. I just need the firt foot or so of the pole and the hoods getting cut to pieces anyway.

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    Here's a very rough mock up. I'm also thinking of using my Square as I have the broken pole and extra hood already.

    Fixed Steer FX-1 ?

    Did anyone ever do this? Or am I about to be the first? I have a perfect spare FX-1 in the back yard and a hood and steering of a VXR pro. I'm going to mold part of a stock pole and the top section of the VXR together onto the FX hood. It will all pivot on the stock mount for a super strong...

    Tanker wave skiing

    Alright, heres the scoop. BB and I are working all day tomorrow on flood cleanup. Not sure if I'll have any gas in my tank for this trip. Let alone the ride itself. I may have to pass. That stinks. Somebody please get a cam so we can see how sweet this is. I do want to come out there for...

    Tanker wave skiing

    Ummm. How bout this instead... ...Take it to the lake and ride it when you get back. Theyr Yamahas not pee-doos. They will be fine for one salt ride every once in a while. They have zinks in the cooling to protect them unlike Kawis and Pee-doos. Your skis are ready as soon as you are. Be...

    Tanker wave skiing

    I'll take those tugs and big deep sea fishing boats at Port A any day over a tanker. They are much more vertical than the tanker waves. Much more like surf. The first set of tanker waves mentioned here look pretty good though. I'd be in for a trip as long as we have a boat nearby for rescue...

    Tanker wave skiing

    I like the face on the other waves for what we do. Those Tankersurfcatcher waves look way out with no beach to make them break. I want land nearby if something goes wrong. Not that my skies ever break. LOL. So, when are we going? We could always head back to the port A channel too. The...

    Tanker wave skiing

    Heard about this today at lake Travis. That looks sick. BB and I are interested. That reminds me of LSFR last fall when we rounded the jetty to hit the fishing boat wakes. That was a blast. Today we hit some big 30'+ cruiser wakes at Travis. It was a blast. Got my first complete roll in...
