I'm having trouble deciding which ski to put my new rrp pole and footholds into when they come in.

If I put the rrp pole on the fx-1, I could put the 2in shorter fx-1 pole on the superjet.

The superjet is so much more stable and would be better for bigger airs, waves (better hook), choppy water etc.

The fx-1 just pops out of the water though. I want to learn nose stabs and maybe later barrel rolls. The holds would be excellent in the fx-1 since it's already easy to get it above the water.

Will footholds help a lot for the heavier superjet? I tried a superjet sn today with footholds and it still seemed tough to just pull the rear of the ski above the water. It mainly hurt my feet.

Suggestions?

You can't put the FX1 pole on the SJ that easily.
The SJ steering cable will not fit that pole. Conversely, the FX1 steering cable will not fit the RRP pole.

oh really. wow. I thought the fx1 pole was the same pole as the superjet just 2 inches shorter.

I'm looking for opinions! lol

Maybe pole for superjet and foot holds for fx. ur. tough choice.

depends on what kind of foot holds you have. If you have ones that don't take up realestate in the tray, put them on the FX1, otherwise put them on the SJ and keep an eye out for ones for the FX1.
