I purchased a SXR 800 that was bone stock other than a Worx ride plate. I am setting the boat up to be a limited for buoy riding. I haven't ridden the boat yet but I can't get over how far the ride plate hangs off the back. It looks like you would destroy your knees if you fell off the ski. Is this a none issue? New to 800's I always had Super Jets and none of my ride plates hung out so far. Thanks

i had a worx briefly and dumped it in favor of a bullett. I have used a tbm, pro-watercraft, and bullett plates any each of them are very good if they are optimized with the rest of your setup
Poor Boy-----Is the length a issue with the Worx ride plate? Like I said in my original post it looks like it would tear you up if you fell off the back of the ski.
To give you an idea of what I got going on with the pump I have a Impros set back prop 13/23 a TBM Racing cone. The boat has 190 compression with a Factory Wet pipe. What would be your recommendation for ride plate and intake grate? Using the boat for mainly buoy riding.

you hardly ever fall off the back in such a fashion that you will actually come into contact with the rideplate, so that is a unimportant issue to be honest. i would recommend any of the plates i recommended. TBM, Pro-Watercraft, or bullett. i personally use 2 bullett plates that i modified myself and they work awesome. i did not like the worx or r&D i had. they make the boat more of a flat turning machine instead of being able to lay it over. different riding styles i guess.
