This is the first Rickter hull which has been introduced with a Kawasaki twin-cylinder engine in it. Although Rick Roy was planning to launch it in the past it was never done by RRP. However, Steve Webster of Kommander Industries put it all together and designed a specific package for this application. Note the Wet Pipe and the factory Mitsubishi ignition. In the past Webster had built some very powerful Kawasaki twin engines for this kind of use and they were used by Josh Lustic. One of the first ever freestyle crafts was built on a Trinity Composites SX-R hull.
