First: I checked all through the forum first, including searches from Google and only found one thread that was asking the same question with no response. When I was building my current 2004 SJ it came from salt and the rubber around the midshaft was toast so I just grabbed a midshaft from a...

At World Finals right now and pro freestyle is about to start. So... no build update at the moment. I'll prolly have a renewed sense of energy when I return. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

alright... I just did a bunch of searching both here and on Google, but can't seem to find it anywhere. Is there some type of cross reference chart that explains the numbering systems between Solas and Skat Track props. I have no idea how Skat Track 7/14 & 7/15 props compare to a Solas...

Impeller question: So... the Phantom is setup with an OEM 155 pump from a 98 XL1200 which I had JetManiac cut the driveshaft to the appropriate length and picked up an inexpensive Solas YD-CD-11/14 on eBay. Now I've only got like 30 minutes of ride time on the ski and will have to do tons of...

Yea, I concur whole heartedly. I can't say enough about how enjoyable it has been to have Josh help along with this build. He responds to text messages like no ones business and even about silly stuff like "what thickness underpad do you use?" I think he sent me like half dozen pics of a ski...

Here's a video of my 14 year old son Aidan and his first ride on the Phantom. I'm hoping with enough work this time next summer he'll be throwing backies :)

Here's a video of the initial cranking of the PHP PowerMouse motor.

OK, so I just looked at my first post in this thread which was August 6th. It's now September 28th and I realize that's forever to build a ski, but I was only working on it over weekends. Here's a short video immediately after I got it in the water Sunday afternoon. The motor is a PHP...

IKR... Slowest build ever :( Unfortunately due to long work days and crazy OCDness about things being just right are killing this build. I'm really hoping to be in Lake Erie this weekend. Temps are gonna be 77 both Saturday and Sunday. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A couple minor updates from last night. Built a pole bump pad and studs came in for intake manifold. I ordered M6x35mm which work, but I should have ordered 40mm. They would seat deeper into the case. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

30mm cap screws provided by Zach of PHP with purchase of intake. I prefer to have more thread contact that way less possibility of messing up my cases and having to resort to helicoils. I just bit the bullet and ordered some 35mm stainless studs from McMaster Carr. They'll be here Wednesday...

Pulled the intake manifold to see if I could fit a M6x30mm socket screw in one of the top holes. As you can see from the pic it won't clearance. Also you can see I ran a screw up backwards to emulate a stud and there is very little clearance at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The 2 Solas 144 mag pumps I have both require a spacer ring. One was purchased about 4 years ago and one about 2 years ago. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

PHP intake manifold top four bolts. Thoughts??? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm not the best at Hydro-turf, but it's on. Hope it sticks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Actually have a few concerns about the EPIC HX3 CDI I purchased as well. I have a buddy on here that has an HX3 as well and he had all sorts of problems with it. He says it destroyed his bendix (bunch of teeth were broken off). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My only concern is that I'm throwing a brand new, yet to be tuned PowerMouse motor in it. My JetManiac big bore, which is in my Superjet, is totally dialed in and hits like a ton of bricks. I'm hoping that with the PHP carb speed plate changing carb setting will be much faster. In fact, I'm...

Padded footholds and got almost all the turf done. Taking motor and ebox with me this week to work on and should be dropping it in this weekend. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Weekend only work on this build and only when I'm not already riding. Rear hooks Lightly sanded and cleaned with acetone Mixture of 25mm foam and double layers of 10mm Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Nope... ATP pole, but it has had its own problems. The 1" long two piece bracket was too long to properly secure the 3/4" mounting area on the Blowsion heavy duty cable. So... had to break out the Dremel tool and a carbide burr and grind the crap out of the bracket to make it work. It ain't...
