I had to tap mine as well to get it to fit. Also had to grind and tap the driveshaft itself. Maxx still hasn't replaced that a year and half later.

Haha, maybe it's the five inches you have on me, but more likely it is that I just suck at riding this thing right now compared to one such as yourself... I just need tray time and practice hitting my set up wake with more control over pitch so I can just jump successfully before I try some...

Working seven days a week right now, I have had almost no time to ride; I have been to the beach with it three times now and have ridden twice. The first was just a shakedown run which went well. Found it to ride excessively nose high even at any speed even leaning on the on the pole so I...

Ski is basically done. I would have been out riding today except the hood, which just got back from Xscream, is hitting the b-pipe after sending it back once because the modification was on the wrong side. It looks like the recess they use is too far back this time. I am going to contact them...

I've had it together twice now... All I had to do was trim the bottom flange ears in to clear the fasteners. Xs must have modified their O ring system for standard one piece pumps because I was not given an option and I know they used a standard one piece skat to verify fit. Sent from my...

Things are moving forward with this build. Pump was test fit and aligned, midshaft installed, various fitting and mounts installed inside. Turf has been and will be the most tedious part of this build. Underpadding is nearly complete now, with just a couple more pieces and final sanding left...

Yes, new from Xscream. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, new hull but same wrap... It's much less expensive to not be original with these if they already have a build file. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So many nice DVX's went up for sale on here after I put my deposit down that I kind of regretted it for a bit, but I will really enjoy this build after the arduous adventure that my square nose was. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

While none may be interested in seeing another DVX assembled, I have decided to document this build for posterity's sake anyway. I am late to the party this year with this build, but my work schedule would not allow this to happen sooner, and really I don't have time for this now, but I am...

Haha, this is exactly why my wife banned me from ever doing turf again after my SN build... And I just ordered turf for my new build project.

Well, worked on it until sun up this morning, slept for two hours and had it fired up. Lots of stuff left to do to finish it, especially cosmetically, but nothing left that would stop me from riding. Hoping to find time to get out tomorrow for break the motor in.

It's so close that I don't stop thinking about having this thing on the water at any point during the day. We've been in the process of moving for about three weeks now so between that, work, and this project, I don't feel like I have slept in a month. For anyone who's wondering how much work...

Still making good progress, hoping to make at least a shake down run this weekend; the last two weeks have been been better than Christmas with all the parts from Jetmaniac and elsewhere arriving. Motor is essentially assembled waiting on paint to be completely finished before I assemble, base...

It was finally a nice enough weekend that I could move my project back outside which is much more enjoyable to work in than the basement. Continued filling and sanding, mounted the footholds, swapped out the cdi for an MSD Enhancer, added another layer of glass to the inside of the pole area...

A month worth of update: hood glassed, hull reinforced, tub foamed, footholds mounted, tub glassed. Every free minute is going to this project, but those are few and far between with work and getting ready to move on the 28th of this month. But I would much rather move a whole ski than my...

Not a large update, but I feel like I am making steady progress... Nose is glassed, hood is cut, hood-liner is removed, finished trimming the tub, have done a lot of prep sanding for the glass coming up. My goal is to finish all of the major glass on the ski the second weekend in April. Starting...

Here are a few pictures to update: I do not have a heated garage so between the cold and the relatively good snowmobiling season we have had, I have not completed as much of this as I had hoped over the last few months. I am, however, determined to have this thing on the water Memorial Day...

Things are not progressing very quickly now that bow season has started and I am focused on that, but there is enough for an update none-the-less. I would like to get the bottom glassed in in the next few weeks so I have been primarily focusing on those areas. I cut the nose and pulled put more...
