    World finals live stream - Ustream?

    Not sure online but in person announcers are kinda bad too. The easy tricks they know but I remember them calling a flex flip and scarecrow and a hand full of other ones. I think the judges just tune them out. Better question is stone vs Johnston K. Trick count or difficulty. Its not easy to...

    Freestyle New hulls @ 2016 Xscream, EME, Rickter, Hurricane, RCW

    So can anybody explain this. "1 of 7 limited editions. Not for sale for retail purchase, only for our athletes". So did they just make a hull to say here it is you can't have it, or did this make 7 eclipse special editions and to buy retail you just get a standard paint and graphics? It seems...

    Freestyle New hulls @ 2016 Xscream, EME, Rickter, Hurricane, RCW

    Yeah the hull designs in 2016 are good but I'd wait the year and get a '17 when they fix any mistakes the find out after production. Also price will be a nickel or two cheaper

    Other My new ski hauler

    We have a setup for two skis. I guess with that dually you have enough width to hold three. Makes travel so much nicer. Luckily I usually only have one ski while I travel and don't mind tailgate down and a few straps. I will make a system for my one ski to make things easier and load/unload at...

    Other My new ski hauler

    8ft beds make non trailer life so nice. Unfortunately i got rid of my 8ft bed, now i have what is a 6 1/2". Looks more than a 1 1/2 loss but we will see if I can shut the tailgate with the ski at an angle at least. Good looking ride, can't go wrong with black. #BlackRidesMatter

    XMetal Poles and Steering cables

    I have gone through 3 cables this year. All on xmetal comp pole, and all of them I will say user error and stupidity (letting it rub on the pump water fitting till it wore through). I have flipped the pump and using a good strong cable right now. Pretty sure its OEM SJ cable, took my time on...

    Freestyle 180 slide to flip - trim vs no trim?

    I have noticed on setup wakes the less trim I give it the more height. That being said your rotation Is slower. I have never done a slide to flip, only hop to flip. I always use trim although I am trying to get away from it. If you are landing without trim yeah I'd say your form is pretty good lol.

    MikeyChan's DVX & TPE build

    Thankyou, more to come as the ski is already built. Takes forever to upload pictures unfortunately but I can't stop looking at it and taking pictures of the paint. Ski is actually getting torn apart today for my 900 to go in. The 1105 was in for some weekend fun and get used to riding a ski...

    MikeyChan's DVX & TPE build

    So pictures will start rolling in. Got the ski back from paint on the same day I got my motor in. Because I snapped the Xmetal straight bars I located the same material minus the anodizing and had the painter spray them black. It won't be perfect and will scratch off when moving levers and locks...
