Unless you pay though, Vimeo limits you to 500mb files. When recording in HD, that's not a very long video. Although if it's bigger than that, you're also going to be waiting hours to upload to youtube... You used to be able to link youtube videos in HD but it seems like they've done away with...

I see that your new hull is a superjet hater. Look at it turning up it's nose at the sight of the SJ...scoff!!!

Top half was done on the first page. A carbon hood was done but it got sold with my heavily modified stunt hull so the mold is created but I haven't made a second one yet. The plan was never to turn a profit on this but maybe after I've had a break and ridden this hull for a little while, I...

Well the carbon is all cut and laid out in a anal retentive system that I'll probably forget before laying it up. Still need to cut out the breather, bleeder, and vacuum bag. I won't have time to lay it up until next week or next weekend depending on when my awesome help is available though...

I believe my jetski cover is covercraft. The elastic band makes installing it quick and easy. It's nice and holds the blue color pretty well but water goes right through it. Seems more like a sun cover because I can see pin holes in it if I hold it up to the light. It's REALLY rough too. I leave...

You should be fine for a while then. That should help spread out the load out pretty well. The biggest problem I had was the bolts pulling down through the fiberglass.

I am using 19.7oz twill from www.sollercomposites.com. It's cheaper than $35/yd and more than 3 times as thick. If you're trying to do a budget build, it's a no brainer in my eyes. It's high quality carbon as well and not some crappy automotive junk that is just used for looks. There are better...

Finally some progress to show... LOTS and LOTS of hand sanding! I've used 1.5 gallons of bondo between the top and bottom deck. :shocked: Once the paint cures, I'll polish it up and start cutting the carbon so it's ready to go. This should be interesting with all the sharp corners at the back.

I'm not using any of those but I do run with a kayak helmet (not a full face). The one thing that I will note about those is they don't have any vents so if you ride in really hot weather, you'll either need to pull the face protector off or get a vented helmet.

More importantly than the cable itself is the adjustment. If your steering stops aren't set properly, you'll break any cable. Not saying that is your problem but that's often the problem. Last two times I've had steering issues, I kept the ski running and used my legs and arms to steer me while...

What's the black piece made of?

I'll second that. I don't have the HD2 but at 720p, I was blown away by the clarity and smoothness of my new gopro HD. Just as a quick note, when you view a 1080 or 720 video on youtube or viemo, that video looks nothing like what it looks like on the computer with the file. You even lose...

X3... Looked out the back of my ski a few times and noticed water bypassing the turn nozzle. Not sure on the water shooting up the exhaust though...wouldn't it have to make a full 180 to up the exhaust?

I have the HD GoPro and it's miles above the old GoPro that I had. The older ATC's were awful and made me queasy just watching them. That said, the new ATC9K seems to have pretty good video and stability. I won't say it's up with Gopro but it's a lot better than it was. I noticed immediately...

Yep. They got a bad rap from the beginning because everyone was expecting a clean hull that they would have to assemble. Those that took the time to make it right had a hull that was awesome. Those that took shortcuts, found the hull less than awesome. I've ridden my old hull (now Tmart's...

I started to type a long opinion on this and deleted it... Bottom line IMO is; more threads = more interest in general = more parts for sale. Why mess with a good thing? It takes a couple minutes to scan the forum for "interesting" items once every day or two. If you don't have time for that...

So instead of scratching a 2" wide section inside the gunwales when you travel, you can pay more money and scratch the entire bottom deck as the paint on paint contact chafes its way down the highway. If any of my friends used one of those, they would be ridiculed continuously.

The only color you mentioned that isn't on the lake already is red. If you do blue on top, it's going to look similar to mine. If you do black on top, it's going to look like your old hull and potentially my old hull from a distance. Whatever you do on the bottom is cool with me but I vote red...

I will point out that it's very hard to sell things when you disclose ALL of the details. People automatically assume things are worse than they look. I used to try and sell parts and would take pictures of every little scratch, nick, and paint imperfection. NO ONE and I mean NO ONE was...
