What does it take to back flip a rn superjet (power wise) off a ski boat wake.
A lot of skill, very big wake, basic mods. And I'm talking a wake like we see here regular from huge boats. You won't find them if your living way inland riding puddles/ponds.

Bigger almost always help on lake wakes or boat waves. I have a basically stock superjet hull cut 1.75-2" sn bottom and x jet top. It's lighter but not crazy and it's still full length with full ride plate no trim. Now I don't have the skills or balls anymore but I watched my ski get flipped twice. Once was flawless of a barge wave and I'm running a LPW 735 and a type 4 pipe. It can be done just not easy. There's a vid floating around of a real nice sn backflip of a v wake. No crazy engine.
Looks like you need to move dudeLol. "Missouri" closest ocean is 1000+ miles away.
I just landed my first backflips this past weekend with a totally stock SJ hull off a V wake. Just -2.5 on the pole, ride plate, intake grate and footholds. It was only my 3rd time trying them so my form still needs a lot of work but here's my setup.
-850cc stock stroke, ported cylinders & cases, b-pipe with C4 chamber, 46mm black jacks, 180psi, V force reeds, msd enhancer, stock lightened flywheel, 10/16 hooker and trim.
