    Good call, Yes its a krypt and im really impressed on how sturdy it is! I def recomend them! After I assembled it I climbed up it and hoped around like a monkey to see just how sturdy it was and im def happy with it! Im not sure if your susposed to pull tubes with it but we did and it made tubing hilarious because it pulls the tub up in the air like a boat and gives you more control of your tube, Flips you a lot but its fun!

    Hell this boat had room for us to put are kayaks in to go up to the river exit!! I just wish I bought this boat in the begining vs cuddy speedboat because its so versital

    I ride an INland Surfer 4-skim which is a skim board. I would look at trickboardz.com, and check out the general store at wakeoutlaws.com for the premium gear. TripleX is another cheaper brand you can find on ebay. Phase5 is great too but the Danielo pro is pretty advanced I would try a Prop or Oogle if you are 200lbs+.
    170lbs, Thanks for the links I def got some great info from them and the vid was just freakin sick!

    Do you put the surf sac in the back in front of the bench or do you have 2 side sacks along the motor?

    Hey I'm on the cusp of some sort of Krypt ebay purchase.....They almost look OEM to me...I'm wondering about head clearance... Í've got a Comp hull with a lower freeboard height than the Sunsport and I'm 6'3", or at least I was in my twenties!!!!
    Any trouble banging you head on that thing? would there be room for lights and speakers??????

    im 6ft and there is plenty of room, I have been debating on the aerial light bar with 4 polk speakers but im not 100 percent sure I want to give up all that space because when I got the kayaks and tube on the boat I use the upper bars and swing over the motor cover to get to the rear of the boat!

    Trick Boardz are now asylum Boardz http://www.asylumboardz.com
    Our boards are now foam core fiberglass but still have the Trick Boardz shape. They are still just as maneuverable yet stable, finned or finless, and even faster and quicker. We currently have the Surf Skate large and the Mojo Grande available in almost any color. The Mojo is good for riders up to about 250# and the Surf Skate to about 210#. Both work well with smaller riders. Since they have the same bottom shape they are great for cross training.

    Beware of using too much solid ballast. Use water ballast primarily and solid ballast only to fill in the small areas. For more ballast info go to http://www.howtowakesurf.com/Ballast.jsp

    dshaff for boarding you want to weight the boat evenly, but for surfing the point is to make the boat lean to one side, called 'listing'. One 750 sac along the engine on the port (passanger) side does the trick.

    Larry Thanks for dropping by, hope you arent getting to many alerts from me hehe! I am very very very tempted to try out your surf skate and I ALMOST bought your combo offer for both boards.

    Great looking ride! Looks like our boats could be twins! What lake are the pictures from?
