Anyone use one of these or something like it?
Need something for our jetski to haul it back.

I put my stand up in the back of my truck with out one.. I back the truck all the way down the ramp til my tailgate is almost touching the water. then I put all my weight down on the back of the ski and fire it up....It just shoots right into the back of the truck..be careful when you give it gas though....or else you end up with dents in the wall. Sounds hard but its really easy! If you launch from a beach though..you better have a 4x4:D
Ive also seen guys ride the sit-downs into the truck..really sketchy thought cause the front tires will be in the water.

[blown65]

ya, I dont wanna back my nice new 08 truck that far into the water. lol
Its a heavy RXP sitdown, so cant just man handle it in. :)

[dumbandyoung]

dude, I was weary the 1st time I backed my new $45k the water when I launched for the beach. I hate beaches..
08??? did you get the new ford already??

[blown65]

Well, its supposed to be here in a week or two I hope. :)
My other truck has been a POS and has been stuck in the shop nearly 70% of its life. LOL

you try to unload a ski by going deephttp://www.***boat.com/image_center/data/520/2371underwater_truck_2.JPG

haha..
I bet that guy loved the bill he got from the guy who pulled him out...and he probably felt like a champ explaining that one to his insurance company? :D

[blown65]

After all these yrs going to the lake, I haven't gotten the pleasure to see someone do that yet.

When I first got started, I rode a 650SX. I also carried it in the back of my truck. My truck was a 1986 Toyota 4x4 with 44 inch SuperSwampers on it. When I backed in the ramp cleared because noone wanted to help:D One time at Buena Vista I jump started a boat by pulling in hood first:D :D

I use to have one of those, use it for my standup though. Used it when I had my 18' boat, I would put the trailer all the way in the water and then drop the E-Zload and drop the standup. I had an electric wench that brought it back up on the E-Zload. I don't think you will have a problem with the RXP as long as you have the extension and a wench.

i finally got to see a truck go back in the water last weekend.......dude got out and the truck kept goin in the water, then they were so determined to drive the truck out of the water that they forgot about the boat and it almost fell off the trailer once they got it out.....it was funny as hell, i'm sure i would've helped them but i was on my boat.....some pics:)

aww the old jump start on the launch ramp. i love those. haha
i have a 650sx too. i barely ride it but i wont sell it because it runs great and its nice to have the 3 times a year i ride it. i probably burned one tank in it last summer. haha
in my opinion stands ups are still way more fun than the sit downs.

You and me both bro.... I'll never quit kicking myself for selling it, especially with how hard it is to find one these days. I used to ride the surf at that little reef about 1 mi. south of Dana Point harbor 3 or 4 days a week...

It sure it bro, my SJ sold the same day I put it for sale. I got a lot of calls and told all of them, the first one with the cash here takes it.

Dana Point is a cool place to ride out of on a week day. When i used to live in Costa Mesa I would ride out of there at least once a week
Ive never owned a superjet.. Ive had a 550sx now i have the 650sx.. Id like to get a new one..just cant find the motivation to buy a new one for as much as i use it. Besides I smoke the stock superjets out on the water anyways and my ski runs real strong

[blown65]

Ive been watching for a stand up also. Maybe Ill find one I cant stand not to buy.
:)

All this talk about Superjets is giving me plenty of motivation to find & buy another one :D
I've got an old 550 hull with a built 650 motor in it just sitting around... needs an impeller but I haven't been motivated... once you ride a Superjet there's nothing that compares. Except maybe an 800 SXR, but they still turn funny.

When ever you buy one im down for the ride. I had the Lakers purple/yellow paint job going on so i decided to re-paint it. It all taken apart right now. Its ready to be sprayed. I have a friend that will do it this weekend if I take it to him. I need to get some parts down to Dana for powder coat real soon too. I should have it done in the next few weeks. I figured if im gonna keep it i might as well give it a face lift.

The SXR is nice, but not as fun for freestyle and too big for my taste.
Are we actually talking about standups and sitdowns on HB? Lol.

[dumbandyoung]

Yah maybe we should ask for a stand up forum....right next to the rhino forum.:)
