First off I want to Thank Tem (Superfreakskis) for building me one sweet hull, he put a lot of work into this hull & it shows..... Big Thanks to Brian at Thrust for helping me put this build together...., Chris Jetmaniac for all the final parts & hard to find stuff that every build needs, Lucas for pushing me to get this ski going....


Here's the details.....

2011 Superfreak Badass Pro -4 all Carbon FW hull 51 lbs (Yeah baby)
Full Carbon hood

Dropping my 1000cc setup in this, dual FullSpec 49's, ATP Flame, Powerfactor Pipe with the new Waterbox, 2 gal tank.

New Dangerboy billet midshaft housing, New DB couplers, New DB hoodhooks

Skat Billet 148 S/B mag pump, Custom reduction nozzle, Thrust Trim, Pro Tec nozzle lightened by #.Zero

Pole I'm waiting on Tem's new Full Carbon pole, going to run RRP steering... Will have adjustable pole for a few weeks (I hope)

It should be on the water in a wk or so, everything is ready to bolt on.... Just have to paint, turf, then assembly.... Tem custom fit the pump shoe & my 148 pump into the hull when he installed the pump shoe/pump inserts..Which makes the build go so much fast... Everything lines up with no shims....

Its gonna be Freakin Badass

Just curious, why the bulge in the tray ?
I know that the pump cavity is big and the tray is as low as possible but would that extra 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch make that much difference in the center of gravity ??

Those air intakes on the hood remind me of the old Riva Racing GPR's. Always liked those.

Is it saturday yet? :biggrin: What paint scheme are you going with?

Scott started his build this weekend too so maybe we can all get together and do a cherry popping session next weekend. Lord knows i have to get out and ride too, it's been way too long.
 
i can't wait to compare engine platforms on this ski. should be atleast 3 different 1000+ cc engines in these ski's in the coming months. congrats josh!

The pump tunnel isn't higher, the footholds are lower. This way you can get 25mm plush underpad down and be standing at oem height.

I put down 25mm pad on my ski and will be replacing it with 9mm soon to get lower again. It sounds silly but that little bit of height makes a big difference and Tem is way ahead of the curve to offer this mod, (as well as many other innovative mods), in his hulls.

But that only works if you spend 100% of the time in the footholds, right ?

I have slight high spots in my tray from my footholds, even with the padding I can still feel it underfoot and after a while it gets annoying.

The hump is for the big pump area, nothing to do with Pad, etc... Alot of top secret pump stuff there hence no detailed pics...

Thanks for all the props guys, I'm going to the shop after turkey, lol

Not 100% on color. Paint or wrap it...

Leaning towards a wrap, cheaper, faster, replaceable in a day...

And you could put a wrap on it without anything else?
Were the last two hulls painted black?
