    Other Gopro alternatives?

    Looking at getting another camera and hoping there is something better than Gopro....because mine is now at the bottom of the lake. :thumbsdown: I originally owned the Gopro Hero Wide and sold it for the Gopro HD. Both were good cameras and I caught some decent footage but I was never truly...

    Super Jet Mikuni carbs without adjustment screws?

    Working on a friends ski and just swapped the jets in some stock 38mm SBN's and when I went to set the high/low screws to a good starting point, I noticed there were no high or low adjustment screws. What's up with that? Never seen any carbs like that before.

    Super Jet Stator screws stuck

    How the heck do you remove stator screws that are stuck? I tried and tried with a large screwdriver and all my weight and might. The flywheel area is really clean but I'm exhausted and it still won't budge.

    Super Jet SN vs RN cables?

    I know this has been covered before by I can't seem to find it now. What's the difference between the SN (90-95) and RN (96-07) cables again?

    Custom/Hybrid The making of my "Feral" hull...

    So I'm doing it regardless of what anyone thinks... The hull will be made completely out of carbon and epoxy resin and will be vacuum bagged for added strength and lightness. My plan for this hull is too add and subtract certain aspects of a variety of hulls out there to better suit my specific...

    Other Decisions decisions...

    So I've had my bike for quite a long time now. It's a 1995 Cannondale Super V with carbon fiber swingarm. It's still fairly competitive in weight for a full suspension bike at 29lbs on an XL frame (21" roughly). I absolutely love the bike and can mostly keep up or exceed all of my friends in...

    Custom/Hybrid Hull width question

    Seems like some of the new trends are moving towards wider bottom decks, longer and wider tubbies, and wider rails. I understand the concept that a wide hull will ride up a wave more and plow through it less. However, I'm not quite sure of the difference between widening the entire hull...

    Super Jet What's up with my piston?

    Had to pull the engine to fix a stripped bolt hole and saw this. Why does the rear (right) piston have an obvious yellow tint on it? The tint is heaviest at the top and is roughly the size of the exhaust port. The tinting covers the exhaust port when the piston is a little below TDC. A little...

    Other Impact vests that don't suck?

    Let me start by saying that I've been using a Lotus Designs paddling life vest for 13 years now and it's still in good condition. It's CGA, it's lightweight when wet, and gives me full range of motion in my hips, shoulders, and arms. I can even lay my arms completely at my sides. The chest...

    Custom/Hybrid Cost in materials for a carbon hull?

    You guys are going to think I'm nuts but I'm used to it...lol. I like the way my hull rides so much that I'm considering making a mold from it and replacing it with a carbon version of the hull this winter. Ignore mold costs right now for simplicity. I know cost of materials varies but what is...

    Custom/Hybrid What did you save....what did it cost you?

    Let's be honest, we aren't millionaires so we're always trying to get the best deal possible. If you're good, it works great most of the time but every now and then, it screws you over. I decided to save $20 over the OCD Solutions switch by adding a mil spec switch from mcmaster carr when I...

    Custom/Hybrid Battery help

    My Shorai battery worked fine Wednesday when I put it up. Today I noticed that it was dead. Not sure what's up with it or what caused this but it's jacked up bad. The voltage measures 9.8v. It won't take a charge from the Shorai charger, an automotive charger, or my RC charger. If I connect my...

    Super Jet Speedwerx pipe water routing

    Can anyone confirm or deny what I'm suspecting is the water routing for this pipe? 1 & 2: inlet from the pump 3: inlet from the head 4 & 6: connect together to cool the waterbox 5: outlet to the pisser

    Super Jet What's the deal with my carb tuning?

    I've never experienced a problem like this before so I'm seeking advice. Sorry, this will be kinda long. Any help is appreciated. I'm running a 785 speedwerx engine with a b pipe, single channel MSD total loss, ADA head at 200psi, Boyseen dual stage reeds, R&D intake manifold, and dual 44 GRS...

    Super Jet What are the benefits of a throttle wheel?

    Are there any other benefits other than ease of cable adjustment?

    Super Jet ADA head keeps blowing o-rings

    Trying to figure out if the head is warped or whether my fuel requirements need to be upped. I'm running around 200psi on my speedwerx big bore motor. The sleeves are level with the top of the cylinder and the old Speedwerx head that I had worked good but even straight avgas was pushing the...

    Other Hydroturf being slow or am I being impatient?

    I placed an order with hydroturf for some black molded diamond and some plush underpadding. Nothing too crazy. Since I'm on the east coast I know it takes almost a week for it to get here but I remember them shipping out the orders a lot faster. I basically placed the order late Thursday night...

    Custom/Hybrid hydroturf grip/traction?

    Getting ready to buy new hydroturf and was curious about the traction. I've ordered cut groove, b stock, and the long cut diamond in the big sheets. I like the cut groove because it offers a lot of traction compared to b stock which seems really slick. I'd like to get some molded diamond instead...

    Freestyle Best underpad for locking in holds

    I'm looking at getting new holds that are designed to have 25mm padding on the top and bottom. Do you guys think the regular gray padding would hold you in better because it's stiffer or would the black plush padding work better because it would allow you to kick in further? I've ridden too...

    Super Jet fouling plugs??

    I've been tuning my engine and have finally gotten it to give good clean response everywhere. However, when I changed the jets last, it ran ok and when I stopped to adjust the screws, one of the plugs fouled. No biggy...the plugs were old anyway. Put new plugs in and it ran great. I let a friend...
