My wife back in the day: At 120 lbs. she is the target weight this ski was designed for. I think Wax is only 150 lbs. or so (IIRC from some of his posts).

Well then, think about it. You have an extended ride plate which is planing in the center, but you don't have the hull (i.e., the sides) extended so planing at speed is like walking on a fence top, any little lean or deflection and you are going to fall to the side. Putting on hull extensions...

Myself, how much do you weigh? I think it would be similar to using an extended ride plate.

Ok, since you are on the subject and the posters here know what they are talking about, I have been considering putting these on my 550sx. What do they do good or bad for performance?

Dude, my guess is that you will fit in well here . OK guys, kiss and make up . . .

Welcome 10-posts-so-far @HarryConnolly !!! Yes, I have thought about making my own hull. You should also continue to think about it. But more important than that, if you don't already own a stand up, you should buy one asap (yes they are expensive since Bidenomics) AND JUST START RIDING ...

Hang in there @Big Kahuna. It is hard when we lose our parents. Sometimes families fracture due to the stress. Think about how hard it would be on your daughter and wife to lose you. Hang in there. This movie may be a little too much for you and your family now, but my wife and I (we have...

Yeah but I don’t ride as well as TC’s kid.

Keep it going Quinc!

@JC-SuperJet I love your post for its thoughtfulness. But you forgot to add in the slave labor subsidy that the Chinese Communist Party has in its mining for materials to produce and its actual production of solar, wind and battery products. George H. Bush made a deal with China that if we let...

A Lithionics 320Ah lithium battery costs $4,500 and the 3000 watt Inverter/Charger to use the electricity it stores and to recharge it costs another $2400. And then you need to have POWER to recharge it. In my case that power comes from diesel (solar is a joke during the Winter). So give me a...

I agree with @Sparkplug that the drive train and motor of an electric automobile is the most refined propulsion/transmission method. I have long thought that if Elon Musk would pair his Tesla with an onboard simple, fuel efficient, diesel electric generator (likely a turbine) we would have the...

By comparison, the internal combustion engine has been nearly perfected.

@brapperdoodle , I really appreciate these photos, since it is something I may be doing in the future. Please keep them coming along with a materials list and description of the pump you put in and how you do it. Truly appreciated.

I hope not...
