Purpose: To get some control and maneuverability out of that waveblaster. Unmodified steering will leave you side-swept in the whitewash. You need to modify your steering to ensure optimum control of your blaster so that you can turn as sharp as
you need to turn in order to line yourself up perfect at a moment's impulse, to ride that wave, roll off that wave or recover from a wipe out.
Observations: This mod applies to Superjets too. Only difference is that Superjets come with a pre-drilled steering mod at the turn plate so you only have to move that out and then do the bottom half of the work.
Intended for: *Everyone*! Why not? You have nothing to lose. It will make the ski slightly less stable but that's a good thing. If you are concerned with stability, I'd recommend a nice three-seater.

Purpose: Shallow East Coast surf eats jetski noses for breakfast when tricks such as the nose stab, backflip, or re-entry land too steep (aka: lawn dart). Superjet hulls are very weak before they are reinforced and it does not take much to crush the nose in the sand. A couple extra layers of fiberglass is great insurance, and of course is often required.
Recommended for: All Superjet owners interested in shredding some surf.

Description: A successful nose stab involves launching your ski vertical off the face of a wave and bringing it up and over to nose it back into the water. This article applies to standups as well as sitdowns. Once this trick is dialed in, it leaves some nice room for personal style.
Difficulty: Difficult Requirements: Deep water so you don't lawn dart, footholds/footstraps, and the quick-steer mod is recommended. And of course, a helmet! |
