Other Looking to buy my first stand up ski

[nick123]

I just need some insight on where to shop. I have a 4-stroke seadoo now. The 360s have gotten boring and im looking for a bit more of a challenge. I don't want to spend a whole lot of money. What ski will give me the best bang for my buck? Anything I should look out for while im shopping? Thanks, Nick.

Get a clean 96 or newer superjet. A few mods wouldn't hurt (pipe, head, etc) but it isn't essential - ff it is your first stand up you can start stock and build over time.

Square nose (90-95) superjet is the best bang for the buck imo, as long as it has a 701 already in it. You can find a decently modded one for under 2k that already has a pipe, head, and what not. Some guys are really proud of them, but they can be had for under 2 if you're patient.

SXR all the way!!!!

for sure go superjet...
Id go with a SN, you can get a nicely modded one for under 2000 as said above.

Find a SN for cheap or definitely buy one here. Most are nicley modded and you wouldent be able to rebuild for the same price

Thanks for the replies. I'll let you know what I end up with.

The SN and RN are going to be your best bet. The SN with a 701 can be had for a significantly lower price than a RN. Thats where you "bang for the buck" will occur.
The SN can be obtained for much less because the RN is the preferred ski although the two are not much different.
