man, all the people commenting on how this isnt DIY. well, he did it......himself! you could too, if you just got off the couch, go to the garage, and think outside the box! i mean damn, i dont even HAVE a garage, outside i go to make something, allways thinking of a way 'around' not having $250,000 in buildings, space, and tools. just give props to this mans' badazz piece of art HE MADE HIMSELF, and showed the world his process. damn cool if you ask me. just my two sense, probably worth two cents.
I hear what you're saying and I agree. But I love to serve on my off time and not spend time locked up in my garage building something that I can have already built and maximize my time on the water.
Владеет технологией в совершенстве и вкус есть несомненный! Однако шум и вонь - электрика адекватней - 200 ампер акум - 20 кг + мотор 800 вт - часа на 2 хватит - ноги устанут стоять. 2 часа на этом чуде - бензин - 20 л + двигатель 15 кг...Однако тишина и плеск волн - дорогого стоят.
Now THAT was awesome! Not only did you build something many of us would to try, but your music selection I have never heard before. A wild build with great BGM. What more could you want?
great music selection!! normally hate most music in these style of vids, but this is soul touching music I've never heard before. Never heard of Ian Brown, so thanks for the introduction. kept thinking it had a cooled out Oasis vibe, now I get it lol.
Glad you enjoyed it. yeah Ian brown seems to fit with this kind of build video. check out UNKLE featuring richard ashcroft for a similar kinda awesome vibe
Dang son. With all the car rebuild, boat rebuild, xyz rebuilds, you show them up with an amazing build....and from scratch no less. Bravo ont he great background music, that royalty free techno stuff is grating.
Awesome project, product and video. Really well put together to show how it's done and you've totally inspired my little boy to become an engineer. Brilliant job.
Man very cool but I would of really liked to see more of the Carbon fiber layout, you just skipped from when you payed it on to the end. I just always like to see people’s skill laying it out and keeping the fibers in line. It’s a skill and you obviously know what your doing because the finished product looked amazing. Thanks for sharing your project with us.
To all the people complaining about "DIY with an industrial garage" : If you ditch diy impellers and fins (wich you should because the aftermarket one are going to be better anyway), you only need a hot wire cutter, i.e. a car battery charger and a piece of metal wire. Switch carbon fiber for glass fiber and you good. And that's it. So quit complaining and start making ! "Only a bad craftsman blames his tools"
Cool! This is how I used to make a foam core model airplane wing. The “hot knife” tool for cutting the foam I used was a home made tool. It is as a giant wooden C-Clamp with a high resistance wire stretched out and a power supply. I don’t remember what the power supply was, but it was not expensive. If you have the motivation, the tools can be bought or made.
Fantastic project! Thanks for the sneak peak of your hull building process. I might use your technique for building an idea I have in mind: a belly board crabbing boat using binocs with an extension retrieving pole.
If I was you I'd approach the Bondi Lifeguards and other lifeguards all around the planet. That is awesome. They are always looking for newer and great ways to get to people in trouble quickly. This might just be the answer. Great idea and workmanship. Good onya mate.
Nice job and a great workshop. Reminds me of the days when I used to be a craftsman and engineer. Some good skills you display there. SO why not make a electric version for your next one. And make a kit available.? I've been looking at the different types of boards that people are coming up with. The battery cost and density is now getting into the sweet-spot. Low weight, low cost and high density with high charge and discharge rates. Solid-state batteries are very close as Elon is now mooting and that aviation might be doable; especially hybrid systems. Two-stroke engines are all well and good. They are pretty efficient. However you are pumping oil and gas into the oceans and that's not something a pure surfer would do. I like your engineering skills; now all you need to do is make a version that is closer to surfers hearts and electrify one. And as you have those skills, the surfing community would love to see your products go to market, as it appears you are destined for running your own company; assuming you are currently working for someone at present. Good luck with your next project. Check out RCLife's jet-board. And Mark's amazing Kayak: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-dGThUFdQiTs.html
Awesome build and skills. High level carbon stuff there. Not for a man in a shed. I was hoping it was all for an electric board. Putting a kart engine is a fun idea but that's reinventing the wheel. Real jetsurf's have this petrol engine tight already. We need fast carbon electric builds. Your already there keep doing what your doing.🤘
Awesome build! I do have one question though, did you consider running the exhaust out the bottom or the back like how a boat would do it? It could decrease the noise.
DIY you just need about 200k worth of building workshop and tools amazing job though looks great I don't think I could even afford a roll of carbon fiber lol
Nice job! Having been a personal watercraft rider for 10 years with 2 stroke, running the exhaust through the top = massive headache should have dumped it out the back or side. You should do a 2.0 version using electric power!
serious man? This thing rips everything away, 70 kph 38hp motor, in that power class you would need so much batteries to run it, so he just surfs back to his SUV and gets some gasoline from a 50l canister, has great sound and an even better smell. Two stroke is the way to go for men :D
Great job. Even fabricated the prop and fins. Have done lots of ding repairs and familiar with pu and eps surfboard construction. Could probably do tow in stuff without a jet ski but likely miss the rescue aspect after a hold down.
You did well with the hydrodynamics! The trailing edges on the bottom are near sharp from mid point on, bravo! At the speed you’re traveling you didn’t need to taper back the trailing edge of the skeg, just go to full thickness then blunt/square the trailing edge (boat, fin, rudder, prop or impeller). Anytime you’re going through/on water at speed you actually waste energy/speed pulling the water back together(drag). I always say, don’t worry, the water won’t leave a hole, it’ll fill itself. A slow moving boat is another story.
You should get a foil. Would massively improve the ride. Second just for the silence I would recommend electric power. And third: why cut the parts out of the middle of the material and waste all the sorrounding material? But other than that, a real cool ride for the sea.
@@averagejoe8662 I tend to say fancy tools just expedite the build process, but building propeller mold and making your own propeller that way does kinda require cnc for accuracy and i'm still wondering if he brought it to turbo balancing shop to get it working that well. Also that huge vacuum chamber is must when you work with carbon fiber, though those parts can be outsourced, just with added cost.
Fantastic build, looks like a lot of fun! A pity that you didn’t narrate the build process, I would have liked to hear you talk about the design and manufacturing process. How did you start the engine? Can it be restarted out on the water?
as an engineer that’s a nice build bro . dunno who give you dislikes , guess there are idiots who ain’t got your patience or skills that go out to be ugly trolls . A person developing there own craft builds by refining what works and doesn’t , stick with it as your going places the 2 losers who disliked your video ain’t ha ha
christian green if you never put a foot wrong and did great things then you’d still have envying people who find a fault with you , sad part about the human race am afraid. Guess they no pleasing everyone hey ha ha ignore them and keep going buddy . Like a great motorcycle racer DJ said , people who try nothing , do nothing , become nothing .
The meticulously precise craftsmanship indicated that this was going to be phenomenal in every respect, which of course it was! To have envisaged such a craft is quite something, then to actually create it, by hand, incorporating so many disciplines is something quite extraordinary indeed! It is rare to find a video whose content may be described as breathtaking and whose creator exceptional, this is that video!
All those tools he's using you don't end up with unless you manufacture stuff with them. I bet he owns a business and this is a personal project that is DIY to him but the tools and facility isn't what casual DIYers would have. So DIY but with the capabilities that a business would have.
i can tell you for sure that you dont need a "special vacuum oven" all you need to do is make a mold or a plug for a modl from Foam. then you need some vacuum foil, a vacuum pump, a hose, a bucket, and a ball valve. you can easely make it at home. the technique is called Vacuum bagging and its fairly easy once you understand how it works. but what do i know im just a certified Plastics Processing Operator.
WOW. Nicely done. A large amount of research you did into pumps and propulsion etc. That impeller mold was no small feat. I was also shocked to see you go petrol vs electric. Much reliable torque with Petrol. Cheers man nice work to you and your team.
@@StrykerBuilt thanks. yeah i built an electric board also, but the nice thing about this gasoline powered board, is its doesnt take any time to charge, and in remote locations, i can just fill it up with gas and keep riding
@@christiangreen612 not much more progress since last talking to you unfortunately. Back at UNI so time is limited. I did manage to find a nice little lathe though which will be a huge help.
Brilliant engineering, multi skilled, and what a great project, very well done, as for filming yourself while testing the board well that takes the biscuit 👌👍
