@Mikesee Go buy one of these skis and start practicing! http://sandiego.craigslist.org/csd/boa/4704095459.html http://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/boa/4700311604.html http://sandiego.craigslist.org/esd/boa/4701115367.html http://sandiego.craigslist.org/esd/boa/4698603972.html...

Is that @Christian_83 on the schedule???

I know, I commented on that thread too. I was just posting my "best guess" in this thread.

It has to be this guy: http://mikesee.net/

Thailand, Thailand, Thailand. It seems the missing piece of the puzzle... until you think about it like a crazy person. What's Thailand famous for? That's right, prostitutes. Now, let's say someone were to move to Thailand, ride a scooter, and marry a prostitute, only to later move back to...

I thought you had a scooter that seized when you didn't put premix in it?

The name is the same, the "voice" is the same, and it has a picture of a dude on scooter. Thailand doesn't match though.

A guy I ride with has a Thunder Jet and some vintage wet suits in his garage. Maybe I should just snap some photos and ghostwrite the rest of the story when he gets back from WF? No, the Thunder Jet doesn't run.

I'm 6'4 205 and I run my SN around the buoys from time to time. Ditching the stock bars makes a huge difference. I run the Blowsion Kommander 3" extended 4 degree bars with ODI grips. It is way easier to control the ski and my wrists don't get fatigued as quickly.

More radius- as in you want to make wider turns? I think you'd need a new nozzle. If you want to make tighter turns, (shorter radius) you can tap a new hole in your broken nozzle. You would tap it between the old hole, and the nozzle itself. This may require that you remove some of the...

Whose been arrested for violating NC boating laws? <<<<<<----------- this guy. (No, it wasn't for boating under the influence.) I got railroaded by some rural wildlife officers who had nothing better to do, and now I know what it is like to be searched, handcuffed, and driven to the...

Sorry man, I didn't see that post where you'd said that you sold it. Congrats!

I don't think "optimized" is the right word for it. Yes, he is saying that your ski's design is more conducive to underwater tricks. It'd be nice if you'd post a picture of that 440!

This mechanic hates on SBT hard! http://www.pwcdr.com/engine-differences.html

With a finger throttle, you use your thumb to hold onto the bars and get better grip. I also found the thumb throttle awkward.

Here's the thread on dropping in the Yami 650, and the link to the conversion kit. Convert a Kawi 550 to a Yami 650 http://www.x-h2o.com/threads/124141-Build-Thread-Yamaha-Superjet-motor-in-a-Kawasaki-550sx-hull http://www.rhaasproducts.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=550-701conv

The bars I have are too similar (if not identical) to the ones you've already got for you to notice a difference. You should think about replacing that thumb throttle with a finger throttle though. @Mikesee: did you ever post pics of your 440?

Take a pic of your bars and I'll be able to tell you.

I keep an 89 JS550 as my "buddy ski." It is a good platform to learn on (both riding and wrenching), but they don't have a tremendous amount of potential. That being said, performance mods are numerous and inexpensive. The JS hulls are pretty light and nimble, so they're a fun ride for a...

Oh yeah, I've definitely noticed the correlation between riding and getting summer sinus infections. My helmet doesn't help me with water intrusion, but I've never blown a drum so maybe it does help with the impact. I tried riding with ear plugs, but I hated the way it felt. Nowadays, I pop an...
