dang how big are ur feet.

I think that is JK's new boat and footwells.... It was on the forum awhile back.

 

[Idok]

Redpop.

The rest is just a waste of carbonation.

how bout the greenstuff that looks like antifreeze...that stuff is N.A.S.T.Y


oh, and that pic of JK's boat is how I did the footholds on my fx-1

 

[tom21]

you can't see it in the pics but there are straps in there to hold some beers in the footwells!

 

[Shonuff]

Before you dorks completely jack my thread, I thought I'd press on.

I received my 8 mil foam from Hydroturf and got to work chopping it up and putting it down in my recessed foot areas and test fitting it with the thicker pad layed over the top of it..

 

[Shonuff]

I assembled my tools of the trade and got to work on the turf. I tried to closely follow the official turfing instructions:

"Weldwood contact cement, red can, one coat on both sides, let dry, second coat, let dry, attach, whack with a rubber mallet to ensure it's bonded." -SuperJETT

 

[Shonuff]

While the glue was drying, I bogarted my super-sweet WetWolf Freestyle Pump Cone from my other SuperJet and installed it on the new one.

[Matt_E]

Yup...I took those at the Blowsion party. They're both Joe's skis.

"Weldwood contact cement, red can, one coat on both sides, let dry, second coat, let dry, attach, whack with a rubber mallet to ensure it's bonded."

Where's the part about sanding the areas with 36grit sandpaper first? It will never stick well to a slick surface. Hope you did that.

coming on nicely :biggthumpup:
