    Other So what makes a carb feel light switchy?

    I run some pro tec taper bore 44's. They run crisp and clean everywhere but at 1/4 throttle the ski is pretty much like a light switch. Is there any way to tune that out? Running 125 pilot with 100 main and 2.3ns with 95 gram spring.

    Other Running OEM f/a on Blackjack carbs

    Does anybody mak and adapter so you can run OEM 44mm flame arrestors on BlackJack carbs? I have always had carbs that bolted right up but looking at the "horn" on the Blackjacks I don't see any options. I swore I would never run open f/a again. Chad

    Other DASA 89mm vs. 94mm......Opinions??

    I am looking at having a motor built. I know DASA currently makes a cylinder that is good for 89,89.5,90,90.5,91 mm bores. They also make a bigger bore 94mm/95mm sleeve. I will probably be doing a 4mm or 5mm stroker. Debating whether to do the smaller bore cylinder so I can have more...

    Other Ski will start on the trailer but not in the water......any ideas?

    Title pretty much says it. Went out to ride my freak Sunday and started it before dropping it in the water. Drop it in and no go. Pulled it out and it started fine. I didn this like 3 times then it finally started in the water. It ran decent but didn't feel quite right.......hard to explain...

    I need just enough black molded diamond turf to cover my chin pad. I don't really want to buy a big sheet just for that. I think I need about 18" by 14". Let me know if anybody can hook me up. Thanks, Chad

    Other Anybody make a small battery tray?

    I am looking for a battery tray similar to OEM just smaller so it fits my EXT9 size battery better and gives me a little more room around the battery. I am putting new hull inserts in my freak so placement of those wouldn't matter.

    Hotel Options?

    I was hoping to stay at the Coral Beach, but it's all booked up. Anything else close by that would be a little nicer place? Looking for something a little nicer than the Driftwood and Makai. Yep, I'm a diva. Chad

    Super Jet Is this a bad midshaft seal or something else????

    Okay, after my trip out to Pismo this fall I noticed a lot of grease in my engine compartment between my motor and the bulkhead. It's down right nasty. Before my trip to Pismo I did squirt a few pumps of grease into my midshaft......Is that grease pushing out past the seal? I also thought...
