    Other Building my own Batterie

    Making your own battery? Wow! Is that really necessary? I'm not a flat water guy so forgive my ignorance, and I'm not hate'n here either, It just seems like I've seen a disproportionate amount of threads dedicated to reducing Battery weight. Is having a few extra pounds in the currently...

    Other Which rules Flatwater or Surf riding ?

    Comparing Surf riding to Flat water riding is like comparing Apples to Oranges. In order to even do the majority of the flat water tricks you need a very expensive specialized ski that's damn near un-ride able for anything else, and Race skis are just as specialized, In the Surf every ski is...

    Other Riding on shallow rocky river... Rhino line hull?

    A bigger problem you are not considering is that if you are planning on riding over a shallow rocky areas you will inevitably suck a rock in your pump and destroy your impeller/intake, etc. This will cause equal to more damage than unwanted scrapes to your hull. Unfortunately, Jet skis and...

    Surfriding just curious, shark stories???

    At certain times of the year, its common to see large groups of 3-4' long leopard Sharks at our riding area here in Oceanside. They are harmless to humans and run rather quickly at the sound of our engines.

    Super Jet Solas Mag Pump Ate My Bearings- How About You?

    A few years back I paid $1500+ for a used Skat Trak Mag pump. I never got more than 6 months use before I had to have it completely rebuilt. To be fair, at that time I was riding a lot, and my riding was 100% Salt water so some may look upon it as harsh riding conditions. But all in all, I...

    Custom/Hybrid Best Standup for Carving Buoys?

    Yes if carving is your goal than deepening the strakes will definitely help. And if this ski is all that's in your budget then adding Tubbies and deepening the strakes would be even better. I used to have a 95 SXI. It was a great ski, but by today's standards it would be considered obsolete...

    Custom/Hybrid Best Standup for Carving Buoys?

    Big difference between an SXI hull and an SXI pro hull. The SXI pro has deep strakes that allow it to "grip" the water and thus carve much better. The SXI has shallow strakes and tends to slide, especially in choppier water conditions. Adding Tubbies to the SXI will not help this. Because...

    Custom/Hybrid Best Standup for Carving Buoys?

    Sorry no such thing as a dumb question, and of course you're going to get differing opinions on here but in the race scene its mostly between Hydro Space and SXR's, mainly favoring SXR's. A lot of this has to do with cost, as SXR's are much cheaper than Hydro's. They both have very similar...

    Yes, you can park at Del Mar Beach (The Military private beach, Not to be confused with the Horse racing Del Mar Beach which is 20 miles to the south) and walk north about 1/2 mile to the place every one rides. The Military will not allow cameras on the beach

    San Diego's a big place so no matter what you're into you can find it here. If you're mainly interested in checking out the Oceanside ski scene, then like mentioned you can show up any Saturday around 7am at the Oceanside launch ramp. Just a heads up though, Oceanside is not a viewer friendly...
