    Reduction nozzle paint

    I have a trim reduction nozzle that came with my mag pump that I just bought that I would like to paint silver. It was painted black but it was ugly and peeling so I sand blasted it but I don’t want to risk any oxidation. What kind of paint should I use? I have a Thrust nozzle left over from my...

    Mikuni super BN 46

    A friend of mine bought a Mikuni 46 for his 750sx that came with an intake manifold off of Facebook and it’s an extremely nice kit with a spark arrestor adapted that has been matched and polished all the way to the Venturi. All the work was done by someone who obviously knew what they were doing...

    RRP ninja footholds Vs. Hurricane Holds for Superjet

    Sorry to start yet another foothold debate. This one is only putting two against each other for comparison so I hope it’ll help someone else like me. I picked up a 2000 model superjet over the weekend and I want to get footholds in it before spring. Since i’ve done the freestyle gig i’ve become...

    Need new footholds

    I'm rocking these hurricane holds in my C2 carbon and let me tell you, they destroy the tops of my feet. I think this is their old style if I'm not mistaken. I'm thinking of making the swap to RRP ninja holds. Any reason I shouldn't and get something else instead?

    Dasa 864 SS

    I just bought a dasa 864 SS second hand out of Arizona. It had too low of compression for my likings so I decided to just go ahead and put a fresh top end in it. The gentleman bought it from Kommander as an 850SS ported by Kyle at dasa. He advertised it as being an 850 original bore so I snagged...

    Hurricane footholds

    Anyone have a picture of the hurricane footholds without turf on them? I have the ones that aren't turfed on the top. Are they the same ones as the ones that are turfed all over? My feet hurt like crazy if I don't make a flip or a barrel roll right on top past the toes and right before the...

    Krash RTR kits

    Anyone have a personal testament on the Krash Industries turn key freestyle skis? They're advertising it with a KV997 PV engine with 48mm carbs and 148 setback mag pump. I'd like to hear from someone who can attest to their power, handling, and reliability before me and two of my friends pull...

    Pump alignment

    Recently purchased a 148 MAXX mag pump off of here and I'm having trouble aligning it in my hurricane C2. I've seen all of the threads that say to worry about the pump alignment in the channel first by adjusting the back two bolts of the pump with shims to get it centered up and down. That's all...

    Reduction nozzle bore for 148 pump

    Hey fellas I'm about to buy a 148 pump and wanted to know what you guys are boring your reduction nozzles to? I read 84-85mm on the stock pump and I'm pretty sure mine is stock and has never been bored so I'm going to take a measurement when I pull it off. I'm keeping a small engine setup for...

    Wrestling shoes with socks

    Are any of you freestyle guys rocking some kind of socks with wrestling shoes? I just got a pair of Asics Snapdown shoes and need some socks to go with them I guess. Neoprene or what?

    Waterbox opinions

    Looking to upgrade my waterbox from the stock round nose one to something aftermarket. Here's my current setup: JM735, B pipe, MSD enhanced with a kart tank. I have always heard good things about the TDR waterbox but I like the design of the ATP box. What box are you guys running and why did you...

    Blowsion HD steering cable installation

    So I recently bought the HD cable as I thought it would be the way to go. Turns out it's a royal pain in the **** to install because everything is bigger. I had to remachine the steering cable bracket on my new aura handpole to accept the bigger cable and now when I turn the bars all the way to...

    Blowsion OVP universal

    So I bought the Blowsion OVP universal system and was installing it on my new aura billet handpole when I noticed that even with grease it isn't easy to turn. Anyone with the same system have any insight on how tight the steering pivot bolt should be? When I ran it looser so it would steer...

    OVP Steering

    Foothold setup

    So here I go with another controversial question about freestyle setup. I've got a hurricane C2 carbon with the hurricane adjustable footholds and I just can't seem to stay in them long at all no matter where I adjust them. They have a lot of padding on them but I'm thinking I need to change a...

    Steering upgrade on xmetal pole

    can you run Over the pivot steering on an xmetal pole? I want to upgrade my steering (currently has a stock superjet turn plate.) I was thinking about going with the cold fusion 1 1/8 setup with RRP fat bars. Would this work with my handpole? The chin pad is really close to where the turn plate...

    Cable routing

    Good God I've run into a mess. My throttle and trim on my hurricane C2 carbon with an xmetal billet comp pole weren't easy to pull after I rode it for the first couple of times since purchase. So upon checking my cable routing, let's just say it's a nightmare. The throttle cable had a massive...

    Freestyle engine questions. Opinions welcome

    So I bought a hurricane c2 carbon with JM 735 engine and stock carbs. Ski runs awesome but since winter is approaching I would like to get more power out of it in my spare time. If some experienced builders could chime in that would be swell as this is new for me. Should I put oversized...

    Opinions on Hurricane C2 Carbon

    I've been looking into the hurricane hulls and saw a RTR hurricane C2 full carbon for sale that caught my eye. How do these skis ride in rougher water like in surf? Are they capable of any kind of speed at all or strictly flat water freestyle? Do they hold up well? I would hate to buy a carbon...

    Piranha hulls?

    anyone seen these parang a hulls from the UK? Really reasonably priced for someone like me who only rides once every couple of weeks in the summer. I've heard anywhere from 2700-3100USD shipped with what looks to be an RRP knockoff handpole. I wanted to see if anyone has purchased one and what...
