Custom/Hybrid AdzUK Tiger Craft Aquabot build

Heres the footholds from behind. Theres quite a lot of adjustment on the footholds forwards and backwards depending on where you drill the mounting holes, or you can loosen the brackets and slide them a inch or two.

Does it not feel like your feet are to close and straight together mate. But your setup is really looking sweet get flipping

Il take some pics tomorrow of the footholds mate, I've just put the under padding on them so guna test them the turf over the top if there ok

Whats with the big aluminum block between the bracket plate and the holds? Im running tonys brackets with our adjustable holds. We run bolts from the back side of the bracket right into the hold. That looks like your feet will be very close to each other.

It's a 40mm spacer, I'm going to change the block to a 20mm to get the holds a little wider, I have to do this because of the under padding it means the holds won't fit in the buckets. I believe tigercraft are making new holds so in going to look into getting them for the future.

I've not realy tested them so not sure what there like yet, will know on the 27th tho.

Adz, as you start to experiment with making the hull fit your comfort i would try cranking some "static" trim angle into it. My aqua really likes having the nozzle up about a 12-15 degree (for me). And with the trust trim it takes only seconds to do and if need be put back.

Thanks man.

It would be nice if tigercraft can make a heel lock to work with this foothold

 

[AdzUK]

I'm sure If you asked mate they would have a go.

Look a bit too dangerous for me tho lol.

Yeh il start messing once it's finished, I think my exit nozzle is one with 5 degree tilt in it already. Can't wait for a proper play on it!!

yea those foot holds are really close together..


...thatll not only make stability a little tricky but you tray area is really restricted


ski looks great... what kinda turf is on the rail?

 

[849tigerbotkv1]

Maybe a couple of inches heel lock w/turf should be enough

I asked tony the same question when I saw this at his shop a few months back. Smooth hydroturf. Looks killer.

Yeh the smooth turf is cool, don't know where you get it from tho.

Brian do you have a pic of your footholds?

 

[849tigerbotkv1]

The smooth hydro turf is just the thin underpad from ht

 

[Poizen]

race you to backflip mate

 

[AdzUK]

Haha it's on Mical, I've not even attempted it yet so you have a head start

 

[AdzUK]

So today there was the annual N&C Jetski Xmas run in the river Mersy, Liverpool. A good turn out for over here, heres a few pics of the finished ski and a mate flipping it first try. The ski rode really nice but is not fully set up, running stock ignition, and needs pole and ride plate cutting down

 

[Poizen]

Dam it looks good well done neatest bot yet

 

[SuperDrifter]

Looks nice inverted, also.

 

[849tigerbotkv1]

Nice man . As for your pole length , cut your tubes so that your handle bars lines up to the top edge of the hood

Aside from the red bot in Havasu, this has got to be my favorite color combo.
Nice job, great ski.
