@@michaelsutherland9180 not yet summer got derailed a little bit. Had to start dialysis. I’m thinking about starting with pole spring first. Doing individual install videos with a little bit of riding starting my season around August. Purchasing a jet pilot wetsuit and running some videos through November. Probably do jet trim on last installs because I want to find the graphics I like then match the mats and grips. I’m not waterproof right now because of dialysis port in chest. I have to wait on my fistula in my arm to heal before I’ll be waterproof. I hope to do this if all goes well.

@@colinm990 it’s always about the aftermarket. I agree for the price that the steering and tray padding should have been better.

@@TubsyTmac Thank you for watching.

I think for fit and finish and my ability I’d go with the Riva plate. Stock ride plate isn’t bad though. I’ve thought more about the intake grate. I’d also choose Riva due to fit and finish. You only gonna be able to mod this Superjet so much. I’d stay minimal and then look to Kommander when you really wanna step up the game.

Yeah, one step at a time for me I’ve been racing x2s for many years. I just got a 24 SJ To build into a race ski and get back on the course. Looks like they can get pretty dialed with all the bolt ons and an ECU tune

They are a lot more stable but still tricky to get use to. Sxr is easy but got killer engine. TR1 that Superjet has is no slouch. I have a stability video check it out. I weight between 185-190 and 6’0 tall. Thanks for watching !

@@JetSkiJockey Thank you for replying. Ill check out the rest of your videos. you have definiltey made me miss them.

There’s a park nearby. Berwind Lake. But you can hike up this mountain. Maybe someone would know if there’s a specific trail for walking but you can hike anywhere.

You can do some tricks on it but it’s definitely harder than the older 2 stroke models. Tail spin is harder to pull off and I’ve not seen anyone sub one. However I did see a Japanese rider barrel roll the ski. Just depends on what you wanna do. The new Superjet is extremely dependable machine but if I was hardcore freestyle I’d look to a Krash Industries ski or Rickter Ski. Don’t know what you’re giving up in dependability though. Hope this helps.

Thanks ole buddy

Go light on front brake. Feather the rear. It will slide. Try to feather rear brake to keep bike straight. Work clutch as needed. But now this advice is for steep technical trails. Some of these trails are so bad I get off and walk it. Double black diamond s.

@@JetSkiJockey so when going down a steep hill try not to use the front brake you recommend feathering the rear. Also, do you mainly use the rear brake. Like when just riding on a straightaway and you come to a stop will you use the rear. I’m trying to find out what brake I should be mainly using. But yep some of those trails at hatfields are inane. I wouldn’t go on the blacks I just did greens and blues.

@@Zackrutledge1998 I use very light pressure on front brake. Keep one finger covering it. Now it can get you in a mess. Loose rocks or wet slick mud can cause you to wash out the front but I’m no expert either this is just what I do. Steady light pressure on the front modulating the pressure lightly. Same way I brake on a super sport bike on track. Referring to keeping bike straight I’m talking about feathering the rear brake. The rear is gonna slide just make sure to feather it to control the bike and keep it straight up. And if you wanna use the rear brake to stop on straight it’s ok to do that but you gonna slide. The benefit of the rear brake in that situation is you can get the bike to start turning as you’re sliding to set up for you’re corner.

@@JetSkiJockey thanks for the information man. I’ll try to get better at using rear break. One reason it was hard for me to use the rear break going down them steep hills is that I was standing up on the bike going down hills. It was hard to control bike and use the rear break.. I’ll have to get better at it. Like I said I’m new to riding I only have one year experience so just trying to learn. Thanks for the information 👍🏻

YES !!!.... My Man. exactly what I say. You can't beat a bit of 2 stroke in the morning...... It smells like.... Victory 🤙

Good deal ! It’s definitely a work out. Stay warm bud .

@@JetSkiJockey no guarantees!

Well it showed a faster single lap but what it didn’t show was after the camera cut off. I had a time trying to run the doubles and triples. Felt really different.

@@JetSkiJockey Hopefully you're still out there riding!

I started on a 550 this summer and im hooked, sadly i think i already out grew the speed of a stock 550

@wed3k haha yep! Time to dump a 750 in there. 🤣 there pretty fun to ride with a 750 or just sell it and buy a superjet. Tons of parts and accessories for it

Agreed. Also , There are all kinds of foot straps, braces that help a lot. Also deck grip from the surfing industry is a must.

​@chriscoralAloha foot straps are mainly for freestyle and tricks and its called turf.

That’s great ! I primarily wanted to run a stock Superjet for the first year doing the videos because I wanted to see exactly what the stock ski was capable of. I’ve been paying close attention to other riders who have heavily modded the ski and as it stands right now it doesn’t look like there is a whole lot to gain modding the ski. For a guy that either has just recreationally ridden or a new guy the stock ski is enough. There is quite a big learning curve. It’s not as powerful as a SXR1500 but it’s a lot trickier to ride. I guess if I’m modding and looking for instant noticeable differences I’d change to otp steering and jet trim kit on mats. The stock steering gets in you’re pelvis when you start getting efficient turning. The stock mats will beat you up pretty good. Oh and a pole spring. 0degree bars and billet throttle with odi grips.My advice ride it til you get the feel of it before modifying. Thanks for watching and good luck !

Ive got a 23 superjet , it did nothing but slide and high side me in the corners stock , i changed to a riva ride plate , intake grate and rear sponsons so much better in the corners now !! fyi im same weight and height as you although alot older .

@@JetSkiJockey Thank you so much for the reply! I appreciate the answers, as information regarding these can be sparse. I look forward to having the experience of my first Standup. Keep up the videos. We love them!

@@kennyolson4359 which intake grate and sponsons did you get? I'm also purchasing a 2024 superjet for this summer now and want to get some mods before I get it for the summer. I'm also 6'2 Thx

@@TubsyTmac Riva Racing intake grate and ride plate Plus rear sponsons

Smith Mountain Lake Va. Thanks for watching !
