    WPS Battery woes

    I've been running for four years now. It's a zero maintenance battery. I think I've charged it once, and that's because I left my bilge pump on. I hit it with 30 amps for about 5 minutes and haven't charged it since 2015. I didn't even take it out of the ski last winter. Running a stock...

    Leaving ski in the water for two weeks

    My buddy left his Superjet floating next to this Boathouse for an entire season. I think you'll be fine. As far as the Algae thing goes, if the ski is clean to start, I would be more worried about stains vs algae. The rivers and lakes around here have high iron and acidity. A white ski will...

    Footholds.. Yes or No?

    The only thing difficult about installing holds it making sure don't cut through your rear exhaust tube, hiding in the gunwale. This is one of those mods you'll never go back on. I have a pancake pete hold in the front and use that often as well. Most of my 180 stabs are done with one foot on...

    D-cut dimensions and best method?

    I have a d-cut on my SXR and I love it. It helps when riding surf to keep the nose up, and it makes my SXR feel very short. I can carve buoys with this plate and still slide/slash on command. It's the Blowsion Kenny Lip Ripper, a little more aggressive than a stock D-Cut plate with taller...

    Suggestions needed for surf riding mods

    I made my Brapp Straps from a left over boat cover. I made my limiting rope out of stuff from the hardware store, and it's way more beefy than the crap UMI, Blowsion, or whoever is making!

    Lithium battery with stock charging system??

    I've been running a WPS Lithium for almost 4 years, zero issues. I didn't even take it out of the ski this winter or charge it before spring. They don't seem to discharge when sitting, and they can take 30Amps and charge up in minutes.

    Water shoes for sandy enviroment?

    Wrestling Shoes + Neoprene Socks = Winning I have 3mm and 5mm socks. Prefer the thicker for more padding and better warmth year round, but they get hot when it's 90+.
