[sunny_az]

Cultists=Diehards, wrong word I mean no disrespect. I love my VHP, but my elbows come 1st!




I got the 200# handlepole dealio squared away. Here it is, just add water:

And a big THANK YOU to Casey @ www.rfr1motorsports.com for the schweet tigging!

Am I right in thinking your single "sunny_az"?

Just because I don't think there is a woman in the world (at least any I will ever meet) that would let you put a ski in the kitchen!

But if your not single, does she have a sister?

 

[adet16v]

hahahaha to the ski in the kitchen



is that a 650sx pole?

 

[IceRocket1286]

why would you put the worlds ugliest handlepole on a ski. those 650 pads are garbage, hose huuuuge chinpads. eeek

 

[the WaTeRhAwK]

I'm kindof curious sunny, but, what was wrong with the viper pole? :261: those 650 sx poles are big heavy bulky ugly turds.


:spank:

Hey Zig, I'd love to sell the old pole, all 50 lbs of solid composite material. However, I did kinda crack it good. See below. I am still interested in your poles, just got a freeby to hold me over.

I took the big phalic pad off b/c it interfered w/ the start/stop switch...and it gave me a complex. The 650sx pole is used b/c I've got a 3" spacer under the bracket to raise it out of the recessed nose...no exterior bolts woulda fit orherwise, thus cables aren't long enough for a 550(which I got 3 or 4 in "storage"). The 650 pole is 2-3" shorter than a 550 pole. Coulda used a UMI -2, or a Dale's pole or a HS pole, but costs were unreasonable. If I ever have $500-$900 burning a hole in my pocket...

Hawk, that 650 pole is light as a feather compared to the VHP. Last year I installed the biggest air shock that would fit(110 lbs) and it still weighed 15lbs on the scale.

And yes, I do have a galpal and no, she will not step into the "bachelor pad from hell". What really irks her is I love my air mattress so much I sleep on it on top of my king pillowtop. Best sleep ever, and when I roll out of bed I drop out of bed instead of having to "get up". I'm not kidding.

 

[sunny_az]

Oh yeah, just got back from the lake...


IT F-ING ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now I know why some folks say the FX-1 has superior handling. Raised up the super-squirrel doesn't have so much a mind of it's own @ WOT.

 

[john zigler]

yeah, i have a VHP, and my pole is broke right off.

looking for a good one.

Have you tried Don in Kansas? I sold him a hull and pole last year.


BTW, someone told me a guy selling a bunch of stuff on ebay looked like it was him. I woulda called but I lost his number when I lost my phone back in January. Gonna have to PM him over at the other pwc site.

 

[john zigler]

oh yeah. i've known don it seems like forever. we talk all the time.

he had one, he was going to give me a while back. but now he is not sure if he wants to sell it.


this ski was my brothers, and i just got it from him the other day. i should have jumped at the pole before. oh well.

yes, i too have heard of the guy on e-bay. i have been trying to get a hold of him, but i can never get him, and he hasn't returned my calls. don was going to ask him as well.

no biggie, not like i need another ski to ride.

[sunny_az]

not like i need another ski to ride.

Tell me about it, just dropped the innards from that VHP into a JS400 hull.

Super squirrely.


Big thanx to the JSU guys for the hull donation...got more bling, mats, hood seal and footholds to install, but for now it runs.

 

[john zigler]

that will be a super cool sleeper. ( if you can keep it quiet lol).
