Default Who is riding what?

Lets have everyone list what boat they're cruzing on.
I have a superjet and I mostly freeride, or in otherwords I try to do tricks but also tool around on my standup.
What do you ride and why?

I have a 96 SPX (for sale too!), and I race a 98 SPX and joe's XPL, and sometimes Ryells XPL or Joe's RXX and sometime even Ryells RXX.

I'm kinda sound like a boat whore :P

Just like Jay, I too ride a 96 SPX.

Why??? Hmmm... good question. Well, I bought it at the end of 96, and had it ever since. True it needs some work (since it's not quite in running condition right now).

"Why not buy a new one", you may ask? Well, the answer is simple. What would you rather spend? $700 for an engine rebuild for a ski with an impecable body, or over $7000 for a new ski? With my bills, the less I have to spend, the better.

More speed? Why? I like to do tricks on mine more than race it. maybe I'll supe it up a bit... starting off with removing the baffels in the exhaust.

Baffels? Baffles? However you spell it, they rob horsepower!

hehe Dream on Joe
Dream winner
Dream for the year
Dream for the laugh
and dream for the tear

Sorry. I was suddenly overcome by a case of Aerosmith.

Gene, I needed a rebuild on my SPX so I did a few mods to it and it is just as fast as an 800 c.c. now.
Jay... :P

Jay is going to have to get his SPX out in the ocean. That light ski should fly! Gene, you should pic up a beater superjet. If you like to do tricks you will dig the SJ and they are cheap.

Maybe later on Joe. For now, I'll stick with what I have (since my bills would rather have me have it that way... LOL). If I do buy another ski, I'll still keep the SPX as well. The body and every other component is in sound shape.

He who diez with the most toyz winz!!!

Jay, yeah, Once I get my engine rebuilt, I too plan to do a little modifications to it (starting with which I stated above).
