[lee596]

Im new to standups but can ride pretty good, I was wondering if any
of you guys had suggestions on a intake grate to get for tricks and playing on a nomal lake. I was looking at a Worx, any other ideas?

Why is it empty in the middle?

 

[sxi steve]

That is the way this one is designed. It's not the top loader type.

Well I defently want a top loader.

I have a R&D top loader scoop grate... Since summer 2000 and always love it.

remember, the top loader isn't always the best. I looked at getting one until I realized how far it stuck down...it looks like if I put it in the back of my truck it will either bend/break it.

I just bought a west coast intake grate off ebay for $35

any opinions on the worx intake grate? my 750sx came with one when i bought it, it also came with a r&d ride plate if anyone has any opinion on those as well? thanks

Anyone know if the R&D top loader scoop grate will work on a 750SXI with an Ocean Pro ride plate?

My ski has a stock intake grate with an ocean pro ride plate. i'll go snap a pic.

yes it would work fine, will definatly make a diff!

R&D intake grate good for hooking up
but cut the throttle and the boat will STOP quick!
I like it and run it!

I use the R&D toploader with the Worx long rideplate with the D hole. Love it, great set up. Worx rideplate made a big difference in better carving than the stock rideplate.

thats for sure the ext. D cut plate is prob the best rideplate,just WORX everything and you will be fine, my 2 cents!

 

[lee596]

I don't understand why Hagan said U got to be careful of the intake hanging down. Did he put it on upside down?

 

[MikeCTM2]

lee596, for our hulls the best is the jet dynamics deep grate. regarding what hagan wrote... i heard 12 or 13mm is the max per race rules and so no manufacturer goes beyond that. so, i don't think it hangs down.

Anyone familar with the Jet Dynamics grate? i called a place in Texas and they said it was the best. then i came across this from Blowsion.
