    Couple pics from Monday at Body Beach

    Only took a couple. Thought a thread needed started with all the cameras we saw yesterday. Gorilla suit backflip was funny and cool.

    Super Jet Jetworks KB35XC strap question

    Just got our new Jetworks batteries and was wondering what straps or methods some of you are running to make them snug in a RN battery tray. Didn't realize they were a tad smaller than standard batteries.

    Super Jet My wife's SJ

    Just finished getting my wife's 97 RN ready for the season. This ski was purchased as a hull with misc parts from Krissy Hale a little over a year ago. Krissy raced this ski all through 97 and retired it after WF that year; it then sat as a hull stored in Havasu until we bought it. Due to...

    Another X-metal water box comparison

    Here's my comparison videos as well. Video is taken a few months apart, but the ski (97 RN) hasn't changed mechanically (just paint, foot holds, shortened pole, and turf). It's a 6m6 cased 701 (temp motor for my wife), b-pipe, enhancer, and stock rear exhaust. Both boxes were COMPLETELY...

    foot hold padding question

    Anybody have actual pictures of the inside of the hold after adding padding and pre-turf. I was looking at some threads and even the turfing with out seams thread doesn't show how far in you guys are adding padding.

    Super Jet X-metal bracket w/ stock RN pole - have some questions...

    Received the X-metal bracket for my wife's RN today. Got it installed tonight and went to put the stock (well shortened) RN pole on and it's hitting the stops on the bracket pretty bad. With some grinding on the pole I can actually attach the bolts now but no way the pole can even move without...

    Super Jet Quick pole shortening question

    So getting my wife's ski ready for the season and finally got around to the pole. Cutting went smooth and foam popped right out, the cut off part came right out of the bracket in one piece as well. Problem is there was no backing bracket where the rivets went through. I compared the pole to my...

    Super Jet need a hand with rn waterbox fuel tank install (which hooks where)

    I know it sounds stupid, but the RN I'm assembling for my wife was bought as a hull and I've pieced everything else together. Never took a sj apart before. Problem is I ended up with a bunch of hooks (and Hooks w/ pads) that hold the straps for the water box and tank. I have more hooks than...

    Super Jet sn pump in rn

    I'm getting ready to start assembling my wife's RN and realized today that the pump included with it is from a sn. The nozzle on the sn doesn't have the bilge siphon tube and was wondering what's the best option (without finding another nozzle) for solving/adding this.

    Little vid from Wed

    First 1:09 is my wife, rest is me. Just trying to get used to the ski after some changes to it and not riding much at all this year. This was the second day back on ski after working on it and not riding in over a month, plus maybe only rode 5 times since January anyway. Basically what I'm...

    FX-1 My first attempt at a fiberglass plate for my fx-1

    I was fixing some things and minor damage on the bottom of my ski and running the tube for the trim when I decided to do c75 skat swirl and rustoleum roller paint the bottom. I figured with the trim on a lever and the new skat I should probably ditch my Pro-tec plate in favor of something more...

    FX-1 D-cut help

    So I'm finishing the ride plate I decided to make for my ski and need some d-cut advice. This was based off a Pro-Tec plate and cut flush with the rear. Was trying to figure out where to make the cut. Here is what I was thinking, it's about 3/4" from each side and extends in 2 1/2". I know the...

    FX-1 ?'s about lever set up for 650 pump w/ x2 trim

    Who here with a 650/x2 pump swap has installed a lever for the trim? How'd did you go about it? What parts did you use and any pics would be helpful. I have my pump our right now and think it's time to get rid of the adjustable fixed trim and hook up a lever like it should be.

    FX-1 Started my 650 pump swap

    Yep. Got it started today. Removed the pump and pump shoe, did some of the grinding on the 650 pump, and even some of the grinding/reshaping done on the hull. Tomorrow I'll get the pump mounting surface level. More grinding and some glassing. Still need to order new bearings, send the bearing...

    FX-1 Kawi pumps what prop

    Might get a chance to start on the Kawi pump mod this week. Only going to start on it if I can't ride for a couple weeks (unknown as of now). What props are some of you running? The X2 setup I have already has a Skat 16 (in excellent condition) and was planning on using it temporarily, not sure...

    61x intake questions

    I did a search and either nothing exists or I am stupid and missed it. I am waiting for reeds and have my intake mani sitting here. Usually if I can clean up castings or do some porting I will do it while waiting on parts. The 61x mani is not perfectly circular and has either a bad casting flaw...

    FX-1 Which Reeds to get....

    SO I had a funny feeling and decided to pull my reed cages today. Looks like one of stock metal reeds broke a corner off and another one was cracked and ready to go. I am 99% sure I am fine as it was such a small piece and haven't noticed any problems and have no idea how long it's been that...

    my attempts at nose stabs

    Well in 2 1/2 days of practicing them, I went from nonexistant nose stab attempts to these. No set up wake because I suck at making and timing them. I'll spend some time this Friday practicing setups though.
