New guy needs help

[koftis]

Hi everybody,

I am new in the forum and i would like to ask your opinion regarding my new ski. I recently bought a used Superjet in excellent condition with the following mods on it:

1. Riva plate
2. Rive intake grate
3. Rive exchaust
4. Umi Handlepole
5. Umi Steering system
6. Hydroturf mat (which i will change to new ones)
7. Kicker footwells.

I have bought it cause i always seen what people can do with stands ups in waves and i was amazed a lot. The reason that i got it was that many have told me if you want to race go for an SXR 800 but if you want to play then you must take a Superjet. So it was a real bargain and i got it.

What i wanted to ask is should i be aware of something regarding the hull and generally about the ski? I have read that Yamaha hulls are notorious for having an incomplete foam "air void" between the through hull rear exhaust tube and the outside edge of the hull in this area and usually damage is being created by incomplete barrel rolls. That why you need to reinforce that side of the hull

I dont know if this is true or not, thats why i want your opinion on this matter. Shall i stay with the Riva intake grate or shall i change to Worx?Also, what other stuff i can do in order to power it up????

Its the first time i have a stand up and i would like to know what i shall do in order to avoid possible problems.

Thanks for any info in advance...

I have post this at the freestyle/ freewave thread as well so i am sorry for any incovenience....

Hey man.

If your like me and just learning why not save the money and just master the whole stand up process before spending more money. Seems to me you have more than enough to get started. Your ski looks very nice! Just ride it and enjoy it. Use the extra money for beer!

Cheers,

Heebs
