I'm about to turf the tray and rub-rail area. First off- there is a little lip on the bondline area where the top deck fits onto the bottom deck. The top deck lip does not quite match up with the bottom deck. I was wondering if you guys sand this to be equal? Or do you just turf to the edge...

I have a 2007 superjet. As most of you know, the 07 is black on the top and white on the bottom. I am getting a used wamiltons hood and will be painting it black or white... I will be getting an x-metal pole kit which will be black. I was kinda leaning towards white for the...

I was turfing on of the sides on my ski yesterday, and was making some trimming cuts along the side when my razor blade slipped right down the side. It went through the gelcoat... it is such a thin line I am not sure how to cover it up without it looking dumb. It is about 1.5 inches long. Any...

Dang... i have a new appreciation for everyone on here that can pump out a really nice turf job... I started trying to turf my ski last night... I tried making no cuts at all on the entire piece on the side including making no cuts in the area that went in the foothold... that got all F'd up...

Why do some people put one coat on the ski and one on the turf? Then others put 2 on the turf and 2 on the ski? Then others put 3 on the turf and 2 on the ski? and so on and so on.... Has anyone actually tried to figure out how many coats of weldwood you really need for best results? and...

Do all lowered brackets lower the handpole the same amount and move it forward? I am guessing no, but I just bought a used wamiltons hood and want to make sure I get a bracket that will work well for me.... What differences might I expect with an aftermarket bracket compared to stock? Just...

oh yeah... I almost forgot to say something about this one... I went to lowes on my drive home last friday to get some button head screws/bolts... I didn't see them on the shelves so I asked 2 different guys that worked in the hardware dept... they didn't even know what a button head was...

How long does it usually take to get stuff from xft? Do they send you an invoice via email if you order on their site or what... I am only getting the 3" monster valve (scupper) kit... unless I find someone on here that has a new one to sell me... :-)

A couple things... Do you guys reinforce the nose? I figured it is good for subs if you hit the bottom, but not sure what else it would do? I don't want to put a hole in my ceiling to hang my ski for no reason.... I am thinking it might be better just to make sure I sub in waters where I...

OK.... so I am a bit confused... Stock skis are not water tight, so people defoam/refoam their skis when they get some water in there. People say that you can drill little holes in the back and all the water will eventually drain out and the foam will be dry. After refoaming people...

So I was told to take a piece of carbon fiber tape and roll it up like a fishing pole and put it around the hood lip... I tried rolling it up, but it would not stay rolled up.... not even for a second BTW- I am using 2" carbon fiber tape I am confused how to do this... do you have to...

Hey, What's up? Some of you know me from PWCtoday and here. If you don't, then my name's Eric, and this is the build up thread for my new 2007 superjet. Hope to see you around! 2007 Superjet - Purchased July 2007 - rode it 3 months stock 2008 Mods: XFT 3" monster valve scupper custom...

Do you need to refoam a ski if it's only been used for a half season so far? I am doing footholds very soon. I figure the foam in the ski should still be very dry since it's only about 4 months old. The foam in a stock ski is the same closed cell foam that everybody replaces it with right...

Getting all my stuff from US Composites 1)How much of the aerosil/cabosil filler and Phenolic Microballoons should I buy? I am gonna do a 50/50 mix of it as a filler. They a few different quantities... I think the quantities go 1 qt, 2.5qt, 5 qt, 4 gallon. The weights for each are different...

I imagine that I will be attempting rolls later on in next season... key word is attempting... I imagine I will be landing upside-down and on the side 99% of the time for the first couple weeks of trying. I want to make sure my new ski is pretty safe from getting some cracks. I am in the process...

I want to reinforce my ski in all the right places as well as put in my WCF footholds. From what I read - the silica filler+epoxy is what I want to fill in the bond line as well as adhere the footholds to the ski.... right? Also, I would like some advice on what quantity and type of...

I got a cheap azz rivit gun that came with a bunch of carbon steel rivets. Ok to use those? Or should i really look around for some SS ones... SS is prob. better then aluminum right for a little added strength? maybe does not matter..... I'm going to home depot tomorrow, so i'll look there to...

I have seen handholds that you can place into the stock hood on sites like blowsion, etc...etc... Has anyone used these? If you have, do you like them? I would really like to get an aftermarket lowered hood/nose, but maybe this will get me through a year or 2 with my stock hood...maybe I...

This guy should be slapped.... not that there is anything wrong with listing it so high.... I just can't believe people can be so greedy...
