@@AlexBarham hi man does it pop back up if you leave the boat on the sun, or is the deformation premanent im thinking about crushing the stern on my prijon hurricane, is it same process squishing blow molded plastic vs rotomolded ?
What effect did it have on Braaap performance generally? I have a Braaap and can sink the stern but require a good eddyline or a little wave to help (I’m quite light). Thinking I could turn it ‘Party’ but not sure what the trade-off will be for bigger water performance. Any thoughts?
debating on picking up a 9.0 and giving this a try. Had one and sold it for what I bought it for, but this has me thinking.... Loved the riverunability and high float on it, but I can't see ever getting the tail down on it (even at 230 excluding full wisconsin winter gear)
Thinking of doing the same with a Jackson Super Fun. Not sure I will be able to control how much it will crush and wondering about skipping the foam pillar. I am afraid it will be all or nothing with the crush. Any thoughts?
You can certainly try it without shaving the pillar, but all control of the squish will go out of the window, and now your stuck trying to carve the pillar to fit back in
Alex, would fun runner 60 be good candidate for this, for slicier stern while still surfing well? I have a jed M and now Rewind M, and I’m 140-145 lbs. Maybe should have got the small rewind, but I don’t own any river runner (or intend to) so I wanted to err on that side with it. Also the small was only available in pink at my store. I had the FR originally more for ocean wave surfing with the hard edges but now I live 4 hours from the ocean. Really appreciate all your content, just discovered you and learning a ton.
These are tricky. Most of the Axioms were made with the Countour Playboat seat with the welded in track. If that is the case you'll have to get creative. Maybe try wedging foam under the seat. This is how I do it in standard boats with a hollow, roto-molded seat. ruclips.net/video/W78cictcq4s/видео.html

👍
Sure thing!
I'm interested to see what you think of the squish results once you've had it wet.
Loving it so far. Took it for a low water lap and it was all smiles.
@@AlexBarham Sweet.
Lookin' forward to the video!

I'm a huge fan of the 8.5 I would get one of them and paddle it stock over squishing a 9
Propane torch and a Honda Accord works too. Careful. The boat can shoot out backwards.
Sometimes you just gotta kick it old school

I've thought about doing it to one lol. Never really liked them as made, and they don't have any resale value so why not?
Awesome video! Any thoughts on repairing an oil can beneath the seat on an axiom with the playboat outfitting?

Boiling water and flip flops... what could possibly go wrong lol
Just send it
Do you think with a similar technique I could add some foot room to a dagger ultrafuge?

Here you go man
@@AlexBarham dude you rock!
@@turboboof thanks man
I also want to do it with my Axiom 9.0 but I am scared that it will pop out to the old shape and I ruined it.
If it pops back it isn't ruined. Not a tom of risk
@@AlexBarham But then the foam doesn't fit anymore and you need new
hahaa....what about pumping up the stern and making it a bit bigger? Kinda wanna do this with my Ripper.
Same idea in reverse. Pull the pillar and add foam on top. Heat the deck and re-install the pillar.
i cant tell whether your 12 of 40
I'm a man of mystery
