Here's a pic of my ski when it was completely standard. Done a bit of work to it since then - ill put my build pictures up soon.
The fun begins! keep us posted on your build looks you are heading in the right direction what do you have planned for it?
My wrist was still sore from when I broke it on my Blaster and the pole kind of resembled a massive bolder when riding, so I chucked in a Blowsion heavy duty pole spring which made it way lighter. Definitely need one of these for surf riding!
Putting stainless washers behind the drive coupling to take up the slack is a good idea for surf riding. Engine keepers courtesy of knoxie. a must have for doing huge aerial manouvres!!!!
I did away with the useless choke and added a crispy new primer kit! I also got one of Roger Parker's dash mount bilge switches
The stock alloy prop proved shit in all conditions so i took it to metalman and put the cash towards a shiny new solas concord 13/17
I bought this brand new maxiloader 201 intake which i used for a couple of rides it hooked up real good but killed the top speed of my ski so i sold it to magpie and got a 205 instead which i think is better for my ski cause i dont have enough hp to pull the 201 yet!
Yep it's kinda stock, this is the engine work I have done so far: I've got bigger jets & 90 gram pop off springs in the carbs. Also directed less water to the pipe to make it run hotter. Carbon reeds and a modified CDI that has no rev limiter.
Eventually wacked on a new Blowsion mat (freight stung a bit) And Capt had to savagely heat the crap out of it cause the cut outs were a bit too small and of course Blowsion cut mats suit Blowsion footholds! Definitely buying sheet mat next time! Also added some 4 degree UMI bars! Next was a light weight chin pad on the menu - which Capt made!! Used some expanding foam to fill in the grooves then glued a thin layer of spongey foam over the top...
Attract Signs sorted my graphics - And best of all it rides way better than a stock standard ski!!! I haven't quite finished yet - got a B pipe and MSD on the way!! I'll keep you posted...
Dang that ski came out looking good!! Looks better then mine! U Keen for a straight swap? Lets see some pics of those massive aireal manovures!!!
