Well I thought i would post some pics of my new ski. I call it the FP1.. (stands for freestyle pete's first ski)
I have spent the last year working on the design as i wanted an 08 superjet style ski that was a little shorter and had front rocker on the nose but unlike most ski's i wanted the front rail to be still there.
The tray is wider than a rickter and unlike a rickter it is all the way to the front of the tray and not stepped. The side walls are thinner like and SXR and the ski is a little wider down the rail and also a bit lower over all.
The ski is shorter in the nose by 100 mm , it runs the 08 set back shaft , I have modified the intake and made several more changes. then engine can be set back as it runs the RRP engine plates... ( why change what is a good bit of gear )
Any stock hood will fit or i will be makeing the one like in the picture, I have added side supports on the hood seal to help with wamilton, blowsion and the rest of the hoods out there to stop popping side ways. my hood will come with an internal lip.
The price for the ski is at this stage $4750 AUS dollars ( no hood) i am yet to manufacture the hood as it is the actual plug that is on the ski. If you love your superjet but want the benifit of a wide tray and a lifted nose then this will be to your liking.
The finish is 100 % gel coat and is made from quad matt glass ( my secret lay up) vacum infused. ... carbon is for show ponies and the gel coat is like buying a new superjet .....if it scratches just sand and buff... i am also trying an additive to the underside to help not wear out up and down the beach so will see how it goes.
More pics and a spec sheet will be up on my webstite which will be getting a face lift www.freestylepete.com or you can contact me at www.facebook.com/freestylepete or email at www.freestyle.pete@hotmail.com
I will be at Havsu next week to hang out and will hopefully be at next years Blowsion surf slam and will bring a boat to the US next year .... at this stage it is a surf boat ....next boats i will try a shorter bottom at the rear and see how it goes on the flat .
And its 100 % aussie made ....we are coming for ya LOL
cheers

maybe i should put heaps of stickers on and ask more it LOL the bench mark in AM hulls is the rickter, and that is what i want mine to come out like...labour is cheap in Asia so i cant compete, if i make enough then sure i can ship to the US to a dealer and the price would be that in the states ... time will tell.....small baby steps first. But the proof is in the ridding and my aim is to get one or two ski's over there just so you guys can ride anouther hull that come from down under
