@briangould8313 yeah I ended up tack welding little lips on them. Slide it up from the bottom then screw it in.

@superk4562 extremely windy, good fishing out there though.

We'll have to go for a ride sometime.

Where are you seeing 24V? If it makes you feel more confident about a purchase the SKU I used was "295101035" and its worked perfectly!

@AveryClement I've had to kind of end my playing with it for the season; if you're bone stock that's not too far off as you're gonna hit speed limiter before a rev limiter. Early next year I'm going to try and get a cam, springs, valves and retains and a few other small mods along side a tune. I really think an impeller is hold this back while stock.

@badm0t0rf1ng3r yeah mines in the garage right now. Everything will be done next spring I'm aiming for high 80's out of it

@AveryClement I'm talking with Ernesto Calas about it right now. Hopefully 85 to 89 is doable. I know with an upgraded wheel 93ish on the dash is what they showed.

@badm0t0rf1ng3r cam is safe to run for sure, but I honestly won't touch a wheel myself until I see more testing. I know it can put out the numbers, but I've also seen people have their entire charger fail because of the wheel. The reliability is what concerns me the most. Also running over 9000rpms is a lot of strain on the engine. I'd like to know what the stock springs and retainers can handle on the 325. I know on the 300 anything over 8500, you should have springs, and im running 8400 on mine. Eventually I might do a charger once riva releases theirs just because I want to see all the testing behind it.

@AveryClement i spoked with Calas this morning and I'm trying to build a reliable high 80s ski, and if we have to swap out the charger then I'm willing to do it! I have the same concerns, that's why I'd like to have it stay around 8600 max rp.

@@Rventureland thank you very much!

@@bernadettesandoval3990 it's quite the view!

@billythephoenix the temperature difference between yesterday's high and today's low is almost 40 degrees! I'm down to ride in the cold; I've been on the ski while it was snowing last year! Unfortunately with work travel and the temp drop I just put them away for the year.

@@badm0t0rf1ng3r That's cool, looking forward to those vid drops. 🤘

@@billythephoenix got a good one dropping soon!

@@badm0t0rf1ng3r 👍

@@Watercraftshack when I'm in town that's my favorite boat ramp for sure. I travel a lot for work and I will drop you a line if I can!

@@R1Kyle i was just going off what I was recommended to do by a former IJSBA pro; he said that's what he did back in the day since he didn't like drilling the placement holes.

@@badm0t0rf1ng3r Yeah I would never drill holes either, sanding off some of the flat mating surface on the clamp is so easy. It is way better than using some tape or rubber. You also must cut or grind the locating pin off the one 1/2 of the clamp on the one side, otherwise it will crack the plastic if you try to tighten the 4 screws down.

@marinejunkies9625 huh. I've been out a few times since this and have had no issue but I appreciate you giving a heads up! I'll keep a lookout for it. Did you contact Riva?

I hit 82 with only a scom on my 325 rxpx .

@@luistejeda3570 I need to go out when its less windy and a bit flatter with nearly empty tank to get these results. Are you at sea level?

@ at the lake bro

I dont disagree, however the anticorrosive properties and weight savings of aluminum would probably have been just fine for my application; aluminum is still and upgrade over the original plastic. I'm fine with small gouges and bending. You are correct though! I've painted these probably 3 times now and they're no worse for wear.

@trmpgod9976 yeppp i was thinking that too.

All good points. I got a new bar and that makes it a lot easier to tuck up on the bar when turning. I dont move my feet too much, but mostly its positioning feel that I'm need. I need a reference point for the back of the tray!

Yes, I have Prowatercraft SXR rear sponsons. They're the first change I did to the ski!

What would help the handilng is front sponsons

@Theretardfromnewzealand the handling honestly is great. It's me that's the issue. I've seen a few skis with the "fatty" front sponsons but that's a permanent mod where basically everything I've done is bolt on

@@trabernathy1797 harsh bro!

@@trabernathy1797 I'm not chasing Dustin Motzouris just yet.

@@trabernathy1797 i got bars now, I'm basically set!

Between the two modern skis (SXR and SJ) on the market Id say this one is better equipped to ride in chop, but ultimately it comes down to the rider. I was in Pensacola bay a few months back and we had a nasty front roll in and it got me home despite the rolling chop.

Thank you sir! I think I want the kickers more than I want the mat; I like having a bit better idea of how close my rear foot is to the back of the tray, especially with boots on. I took the ski back out with the WCOT ride plate on in some choppier water and it was really fantastic. I just don't think I'm good enough right now to appreciate how it changes the ski. I did throw on 4 degree bars and that makes in monumentally easier to bend my knees and get the bar lower for turns. You're not the first person to mention wrestling shoes.... ill definitely take a look! Thanks for the comment !

Hey looks like the only jet dynamics one they sell right now is an extended one. I was also curious about the prowatercraft ride plate since their sponsons have worked out well for me. I mean its only a few bolts, it wouldn't be hard to try it out!

@@badm0t0rf1ng3r I will say sorry to Chris but the PWC plate was garbage, that is the first one I bought and it fit so poorly I never even tried to use it. I went right to the Jet Dynamics plate and I love it, for me I use it as a boarding step getting on the machine when in deep water. Right now my machine has a WCOT intake grate, the PWC sponsons, the Jet dynamics plate, Get trim mat with a straight small kicker, 0 degree straight bars. I want to do a RRP pole next. I t has been a fun thing learning stand up after all these years. Look at the TBM parts, Tims stuff is some of the nicest stuff out there build quality wise.

@@R1Kyle I have mostly the same setup. I just wish jettrim was a bit more clear about the options they have available. Their customer support is hit and miss, not bad, just not as helpful as they could be when explaining some of the options. I have heard some people did not like the PWC plate, thats why I ended up skipping it. TBM ride plate was on my radar too, but when you count about a 150 dollar discount the WCOT grate was an easy choice for that flattened M style ride plate. I got 4 degree bars and that really changed everything... pulled me up onto the tray, made the steering feel make so much more sense and easy to pull against the bars for speed. Being pulled forward too makes lowering the handle pole for turns easier as well. Its been really fun learning the ski and getting more and more used to it. I enjoy riding the couches, they have their place, but stand ups are a workout and a learning experience every time you ride them!

@@badm0t0rf1ng3r Yeah I do not ride my floating couch much now, we were out today with the jet boat and the floating couches because our water is so cold now, a balmy 47f. I really do not wish for your gator water and the mud brown.

@R1Kyle you're not the only one! Another guy commented on my video he bought his first stand up at 60! They're too much fun. One of my new coworkers actually used to be a pro.

@susiechevalier221 Hurricane Iniki? I lived out there and people would talk about that one a lot!

@@badm0t0rf1ng3roh yes. My first hurricane and it was a whopper. At least 7-8 weeks no power. Every other home wiped out. The sound of the storm stays with you forever. Now when we get a hurricane warning I don’t mess around and everyone makes fun of me for being so prepared. 😅. When you know you know.

Psalm 91 tells us a thousand may fall at your side and 10 thousand on your left but it will NOT COME NEAR YOU. You will only look with your eyes and see the reward of the wicked. Many homes will be destroyed but those who trust in God, who worship Him in spirit and truth faithfully, will be ok. Your dwelling will not be overtaken. NO DISASTER WILL COME NEAR YOUR TENT. If you believe this with all your heart it will be so. God bless every one of you. Be safe and pray for protection. Recite Psalm 91 and know that God will make sure you're okay and your home is not destroyed. ❤ 🙏

I was out on the water for just about 2 hours, maybe just about a third of a tank. It definitely doesn't sip, it chugs, but no more than my 300 or a 230. Then again the RPM was limited due to the break in process.

@@badm0t0rf1ng3r cheers - i was thinking of ditching my GTR230 for the new rxp, was worried that losing that playful pollytec 2 hull would be a deal breaker …. For me.

@@stuarts3016 Honestly, if you want more power but don't want to lose playfulness I'd check out the GTR-X 300. Full 300 sized engine in essentially a GTI hull. I have not had the chance to ride one yet but everything I hear about them makes me feel like its the closest thing to a 300 Spark we will ever get.

@@badm0t0rf1ng3r yet again thanks, i have the x on order, funny you should mention it, but was thinking the hull on the Rxp being so much better in the chop As i ride offshore is it that much better as a trade off…. the polly2 hull crashed into waves more than cuts throu them…..

In short i was on the fence about changing the order to the P.:..

Yep, I got those 4 degree bars now. I have a WCOT ride plate that I added but haven't been able to ride yet. The prowatercraft sponsons seem pretty grippy... what do you think you would move to?

@Floatsorrolls1 i need to get it on the water again. Between work and this hurricane i haven't had time!

Hey, the new GTX 325 looks like a helluva ski! And the color this year is fantastic! One of the few I'm absolutely ecstatic with for the 2025 lineup. I mean I bought this ski because I was so disappointed with the RXPX and RXTX color schemes for 2025. Plus that screen on the GTX limit is absolutely mint! I added the catch can because that should always been your first mod for a supercharger Seadoo, as they recirculate the oil back into the system normally. I dont want that stuff gunking up my ski! They are notorious for blow by! I swapped out the blowoff valve because I feel like the stock one is woefully inadequate for the ski. It was puny and kind of cheap feeling plastic. I want high quality stuff on my ski. I went with the fizzle intercooler tubing and the the turbo smart blowoff valve.
