Steve did not realize there was a 300/44/550 Page. So I am moving this. Stay tuned for more. Little Back History, This is the ski that came after the Blunderjet that he competed on at several world finals. May have even won a world title on it in Am Freestyle. He can give more information. He located this ski through a friend and immediately brought it back to life over the past year. It is almost ready for water test!!!!!!!

Steve, what are you using for the flywheel lock washer? I'm currently building a 550SX for my brother and I just realized the OEM washers are discontinued. Is there a replacement or superseded part #? @Aquaholic

Reunited with my baby after almost 30 years. And...it’s Valentines Day! How appropriate is that? So, to celebrate this special day... I took her to the spa for a complete makeover and spent a ton of $$ on her. You know...to get her in the mood.

30 years later! After sorting out a few gremlins, I finally got Purple Haze back on the water. It felt surreal riding this thing again after so many years. I still can't believe I got this
ski back!
ski back!

I had that paint done almost 30 years ago. I'm not sure how many hands this ski has passed through since I sold it. But, it's really in remarkable shape! I think the paint they used back then didn't have all the BS EPA restrictions that today's paints have.
