So, as we all know, everyone quit making steering nozzles. Pretty bunk and idk why. My favorite was always a +20mm protec. Got carnage this weekend in hells canyon rapids and my friend busted off his oem nozzle. I shattered a metal pump shoe lol. Anyone happen to have a protec superjet nozzle to part ways with? Or multiples… will take what we can go any metal one such a thrust innovations nozzle would be cool to come across as well. Cheers!

Then how come I hear freestylers going for shorter nozzles? I honestly don’t know, that’s why I’m asking! I guess it’s easier to knock a long nozzle and break it, rather than a shorter one. Especially when the hull is crazy short…

Pumps are so set back on those hulls that they don’t need it anymore sensitive than it is with all the custom steering they have

I have a 3d print design that ads 20mm to my waveblaster nozzle. It is a really nice improvement to the steering response.

Waveblaster steering nozzle extension by MarkB3D

This is a steering nozzle extension I made for my waveblaster. I have been testing it this summer to make sure it will hold up and so far so good. It adds about 20mm to the nozzle for quicker steering. My concerns were, would the extension hold up and would the nozzle and steering cable take the...

Just out of curiosity, what is the benefit of an extended nozzle? I know most of the freestyle guys want it short…

When I first got the extended protec years ago, I immediately hated it and chopped the end off. All the extra length did was make turning the bars harder because the pump flow has more leverage against you.
For what it’s worth, 4-stroke Yamahas have a metal turn nozzle. The thrust castings are so brittle, I’ve been happy with Yamaha one. It uses the larger 155 trim ring, but that works for me with the thrust reduction nozzle which is bigger than oem ones.

So to be clear, are you saying that a 4-stroke Yamaha trim nozzle fits and works on a Thrust trim ring/system?
