nice! I need to find some time to get out on mine, between working long days and doing stuff like every weekend I have only ridden mine 3 times. :banghead:

Rolls look clean.

ON you back flip attempts. Are you carrying constant speed up to the wake or are you letting off and then getting back on the gas?

Looks like constant speed. If you let off some right before the wave you should get more punch as you leave the wake which will give you more "pop" out of the water.

Great video.

Most of the time i go constant speed. My rotation seems to stop mid air and i just nose them in all the time. It happens fast i really dont have to think what im doing wrong LOL. Thanks for the Tip!!:)
 
great video , thank you for sharing...

Backflip

I am quite astonished that you can get the ski so far arround without throwing your head back and upper body motion ??
That Bob is backflipping by itself......wtf :0)

Limited 62/61x ported cylinders. It needs more brapp... 771+ would rock in this hull.

As for cruising-----It really sucks. If you have a full tank then its desent, anything lower than half its a handfull.

If anyone is interested in riding one, we are located in New York, Long Island. We will have two BOBS built and ready to demo by Oct 1st. One will be a limited 701 and one will be a 771 or a 850 Group K or even a 865 Scream. We also have eveything you may need as far as parts and we can also build you your ski as well.
Thanks Steve

Bastardo! Thats sick! Im jealous of your BOB skills.. feels good on a 701 setup.. can only dream of what a 865SS will do to it!

when your flips arent complete are you sucking any water into the carbs after the recovery? Mine seems to take a minute to clear out.. just trying to figure it its my setup or the way the water moves around the hull (which it is always pretty dry in there.. )
