The news came right from the headquarters of Hot Products USA in San Diego, where CEO of the company, Mr Scott Saito informed us that Hot Products USA signed the contract of Title Sponsorship of 2012 World Finals with IJSBA. Therefore, this year’s event will be named as Hot Products World Finals 2012.

Last summer, particularly in July a few days after BRP has launched its new RXP-X, Riva promoted its Turbo kit for the particular model. After the last Moto of Pro Runabout Open in Havasu (World Finals 2011) we had the exclusive opportunity to test ride Eric Lagopoulos’s RXP-X which was equipped with this particular Riva Turbo kit. However, the performance was not really at its best and Dave Bamdas, owner of Riva Motorsports confessed (after this test) that they were going to work on the ECU in order to provide more horsepower at low and mid rpm. Today (27-6-2012) Bamdas confirmed the new updates of this kit by saying the following “The kit is moving towards production now. We hope to be shipping complete systems before Havasu (i.e. the World Finals 2012). We have corrected the power curve problem by using a different size turbo. Still working with the water cooled Tial brand turbo.”

Jettrim is very well known world wide for its outstanding products, the one of a kind bitchin’ stitchin’, the awesome designs and the unique durability of its mats and seat covers. This were the basic reasons we trusted out beloved Yamaha FZR 1000 Gary Hart’s hands and this is the result. Rider and Passenger seats were fit with Jettrim’s carbon look-a-like cover which is very durable under the extreme weather conditions and temperatures. We used it for more than a year and it still looks like brand new. Not to mention that the aesthetics of the motorcycle have been regenerated. Call Jettrim to get your motorcycle, ATV, or dirt bike equipped with a one of a kind seat cover.

We do not know who the photographer is however he/she has doe a great job on capturing Rok on this outstanding aerial trick. When the motion and the body language are unique, it does not matter if the trick was completed successfully. As the song says, "Rock till you drop".

Who built this ski? Craig “Fuzzy” Boyd who is still an employee at KMC. I built this ski in 87-88. I'm surprised to see it show up here! This ski had a Rotax 583 cc snow mobile engine inside it with 95 STOCK HP. I built a huge carbon/Kevlar expansion chamber pipe which originally, I made the tooling to stamp the pipes from Aluminum. Aluminum gas tank, titanium engine bed plate and pivot bracket. Titanium driveshaft, Hand made billet starter motor assembly (because these engines were pull start). All aluminum hand made exhaust and intake manifolds. Molded rubber tank bases before OEM foam molded tanks were around? Billet sub plate. Titanium pump, scoop and intake before the OEM's had them. Graphite bottom. Adapted supertrapp. The first of the sealed batteries before the OEM's. Extrude honed 550 pump with the inner hub shortened and fattened with the first custom made 20 degree impeller. I painted it based from my snow ski poles back in 1985. I re-did the paint job for the 1993 (I think?) World Finals, where I sold it to the Japanese. ‎Three champions rode this ski too. Victor Sheldon, Dan Fitzgerald and Clay Cullen, oh and motoX champion/ legend Ron Lechene.

Famous Italian company, Dainese has discontinued the Impact Vest, the best personal watercraft PFD we had ever tested in www.jetskiworld.gr most probably due to the small numbers in sales. The particular vest was relatively expensive; however it was possibly the best one in the market. This leaves Jettribe alone in the segment with its own design which incorporates a detachable (and not built in) back protector. Jettribe was able to design a really smart PFD and released it in a reasonable and affordable price.
