Thanks for the views! I'll be posting another DIY CAT video for the Waveblaster. That'll be up... when I feel like it. To describe the "performance" I'd say it's comparable to a Spark trixx. Won't help you learn new tricks but if you already know a few it'll help add some flair.
Good video. I'm looking to do a lever operated, quick action trim nozzle for my 94 seadoo xp. I modded my nozzle and cable attachment to get 6 degrees more up angle which allows me to do tail stands but I need the nozzle to move faster between full up and full down. Going to pursue what you have shown here. Thanks!
Without a return spring, did you notice the trim nozzle moving up and down without your inputs at all or does the thrust always push down on the nozzle?
@@EricFB awesome thank you I’m literally just starting to do the same thing to my Superjet iI had to buy a tilt nozzle. My ski is a 98. But tracking says it should be here tomorrow morning.
there is no mechanical stop for the nozzle position, will it damage the cable because of the tension constraint ? And is it easy to pull the lever trim when you strongly accelerate ?
Swann Lefeuvre You have to let off the gas to pull the lever in before going wide open. Other than that no issues, cable stop is holding up fine. There is no tension on the cable when you aren’t pulling the lever, thrust just flows strait out the back.

The thrust keeps the nozzle pointed inline with the pump. No issues sliding, tail-stands wave jumping etc. No real need for a return spring. Cheers

could you please tell me where i can order the cable i cant find any where online
I got it at a bike shop, it’s just a brake cable for a tandem bike. Try searching Amazon for either 3500mm or 3.5m brake cable. Cheers
What cable did you use? I’m having trouble finding a cable longer than 120 inches.
I got it at a bike shop, don’t remember the brand. Google “3500mm tandem bike brake cable”. Your local bike shop might even have one in stock.
Actually, I just found cable by the spool so I ordered a spool and a whole bunch of ends to crimp on on but thank you for the tip
Love your vids, especially the electric skateboard. Please make more!
Thanks!
Do you think that would work on a Kawasaki sxr 1500?

Eric B ok thanks a lot ! And does it allow much more tricks or not really?
Beauty!
Did this system work well?
How well it works is up to the riders expectation. On a stock power ski there's only so much one can ask for but it definitely gets the nose up.
Nice
