anybody know of any ways to put a sound system on your pwc

LKNboarder7982

if you go to omenskates.com, and under propagana, click pic. 17, and you will see the wake edition with 2 speakers somehow mounted beside the pylon and then some crazy rack mounted on the back. does anybody know how to or know someone that can tell you how to get some speakers mounted like that, although I have a 2002 honda aquatrax f12x so i doubt theres a way for my pwc, but for others that want something like that. Cool

LKNboarder7982, Thats Justin Shocks ski, he's on the forum under Shocker. His runs a 600w amp. "not positive on the watts" off of a Ipod and Defcon 1's

The rack mounts were custom made for his ski... Give him a shout he can give you all the details. It's pretty loud though.

This is our team ski. Paint job and graphics coming soon. The speakers crank. Honestly, everytime we pull out of lake fairview someone has somethign positive to say about it. The amp hooks up to our ipod which is left in the rear cabin. We have to have playlist right now. I will be ordering a waterproof box for it so it can mount up front.

Green On/Off switch for the amp

non related but our newest team member Scooter representing

Also we have a new web designer. 1-2 weeks he says. Look out for us in wakeskate life next issue as well!

Hey it will ruin the speakers if you flip right?

They are waterproof speakers. Never flipped the jetski though. 3 seaters are hard to flip. We usually only have one person riding it at a time.

The amp isnt waterproof. It sits in the rear cabin which is waterproof. We drilled holes on the side of the cabin to allow wires out to speakers and battery. Do get a second battery though. After a few days it will kill the skis. I recommened buying another small ski battery and hooking it up only to the amp and charging that battery every few days. Ross, the other guy in flict., created the speaker holders. Its pretty much all custom. We were actually talking about making/selling kits for jetskis. Im about to order http://www.otterbox.com/products/ipod_cases/mini/ for my ipod so i can mount it where you see the green switch.

That could be another one of your wakeskate specific items like the die-cut griptape, since so many skaters go behind skis.

It might not be worth it. Cost of amps, waterproof speakers, small battery, and other misc things. They would all be concealed into a small box so you could store it under the skis seats. It would have to around $200 or so which seems high priced to me. Dunno if theres an audience for that.

Dope ass setup
I just dont really see it being that worth it

200$ dosn't seem like alot for a system on a ski. considering everything is already thought out for y'a.

Jama · Guest

200 for everything? Sounds like a deal to me.

yeah i was thinkin the same thing.................did flict., did u mean $2000.

mario c. · Guest

i'm sure he meant 200$

flict. · Pop Shuvit Joined: 26 Apr 2006 Posts: 145 City: Orlando

well i can probably get speakers for like 40-50, we use custom cans for the speakers, amp - 50-100 bucks?, 2nd battery (if people want to go that route) 50 dollars?, wiring, wood to make box that fits it all 10-20?

These are all numbers off the top of my head. 200 might even be too cheap to turn any sort of profit. That might not ever cover cost of supplies. I guess when we get the site rolling we can look into things like this.
