Chenzo's Super Jet Project!!

Hey chenzo how did tuakua go today, did you get ur ski dialed in??

Yea man the SJ is all go! Il post some pics of the powerhouse later but shes a tad more powerful than it used to be! haha I have extremely sore arms at the moment!

just chuck up a few pics of riding / tuning at tuakau in the rides section..

yea I was just looking at them, nice work! Some good pics of Roger and his plethora of skis! haha

Well here it is, the long awaited 99% Finished Super Jet project!
Big thanx to Roger at Jetwerks, he done an amazing job on my engine and im still trying to get used to the power!

hey mate looking pretty sorted under the hood now. good to hear your happy with all the work and money gone into it. so when are we going to see it in action? ROAD TRIP! LOL.

Haha, yea has turned out real good actually not real cheap but worth every cent thats for sure!

Me and Droughty are keen to road trip somewhere at some stage. Might have to get it organised. Wana go when the weather is good though so may have to keep an eye on that?

Definately will get over your guys way at some stage, just not really a day trip for us! lol More an over Friday home Sunday type trip! lol

We should get on to the dalusion boys,jetworks roger and anyone else thats keen and meet up some where in the middle do some riding and hit the piss! What do you think?

Yea that would be an awesome idea.
I guess the hardest thing would be coming up with a place thats good and central and still has good surf.

Any ideas?
There arent many places between New Plymouth and Auckland that are really good for jetskiing and hitting the piss.

Might even have to have a get together in New Plymouth one day aswell, that way we could get the boys from down Palmy, Wellington and Wanganui to come up for a spin.
Will have to put the idea out there I guess?

We could do raglan maybe but if you want to sort out a palmy ride that would be cool. Iv got a truck at work that we could use to get about 10 skis on it and all the gear.Then we just get a bus or mini van for the lads.Post it on the rides and lets see whos keen.

Yea I might wait till it gets closer to summer cos the weather in the Naki can be a bit unpredictable during spring and Id hate to have all the guys turn up and it be really crap weather or no surf!
We have a few wicked spots that generally have a good wave if theres a bit of swell just the weather thing really.

Might post the idea and see if we get any interest.

Well I had an absolute disatrous day at the lake today!! Snapped my pole trying to do a barrel roll and in doing so had my ski jam full throttle and go flying across the lake without me!

Smashed in to the bank and put a big hole in the hull and then sat there revving its nuts off at full revs for about 2 minutes!!! Luckily for me while it was stuck about 2 feet into the bank it was still slightly in the water so it didnt over heat while someone went running around the lake to swich it off!!

Pic's to come!!

Holy shit! Man that suk's Hope all the damaged can be repaired. How close did u get to landing the barrel roll?

I wish I could say I was close but I can only get a little bit passed halfway!
I can get upside down and sometimes make it as far as landing on my side but still got long way to go to get right round

Well this is what the carnage looks like!!!

A very bad day at the office!!

That looks nasty. Gutted man.

man...thats pretty hardout !! :shock:

Its actually not as bad as it looks! I striped the ski down today and had a clean out of the wound and its not so bad, should be fixed in a few days.
Its right on the nose so its not in a high stress zone, should be good!!

Ordered a new UMI pole as well today so that should be here Tuesday. Watch me break that one!! lol

Me thinks il be using a lanyard from now on! lol

excellent effort bro well done!

Well my new UMI pole arrived today and its all nice and shiny black! Should look nice on the boat!

Took the ski to the Fibreglass man yesterday, he had a bit of a chuckle but its only $350 to fix so thats all good!

Back on the water for under a grand! Lovin it!!
