just finished my seat mod tonite. spent at least 4hrs trying to make it shorter and lower. heres what i came up with its alot shorter than stock and is only 4inches high i could have gone about 2inces lower but wanted padding.. then racked my brain how to cover it well finshied product... let me know what you think...

I like the general shape, but it's a bit too short for my taste.

Ditto on that. It's cool but it's too short. Props on doing something though.

I like it. It'll be good for racing too. If you ever ridden a blaster without the seat you will find out how much more you can whip it around. I will be doing one like that.

Here's one from the X. looks like about the same lenght

lol, same color, same owner lol

Got your text earlier with the picture.

I love it! I have owned a few blasters and every time I have rode them I always wanted to just take a hacksaw and cut the seat off. The seats are next to pointless on those skis..if you are riding them you hardly ever sit down anyways!

Good job man!

you would be correct same seat but i suck at turffing if you cant tell lol...

i only sit when i get tired. and the seat is really comfy..

im goint to take a stock seat picture and this one side by side so you can really tell the size differance. as of rite now im happy how it turned out with the cover. alot happer with the cover than the turf the turff looked like total crap

I say looks good for sure.. my initial thought was WOW thats sick but looks a little low. How it works on the water is what really matters though

Did you trim down alot of foam? did you cover over the turf?

I ride with my knee on the seat a lot so if it still works for that and is not to short. Otherwise right now I'm nutral lol. But don't like the turf seat.

vshockey.. how offten do you sit down? i find my self hardly never sitting down.

the stock seat is 4 peices the fiberglass part that covers the battery and holds the seat down the white peice that the cover is stapled to and 2 peices of foam one white hard and one brown soft.

mine has a reinforced fiberglass base thats sealed **** so i could have stoped at the base of the back. but i wanted some padding. took some foam and shaved it down to where i wanted the base at then took soft foam and put on top then sanded that down. but i left the turf on there witch i probally shoudl have taken off but couldnt cause it would have foam out. and all that work i did before out the door. so i covered over top the hardest part figureing how to hold the seat cover down on the fiberglass part. but a buddy that owns a custom fabric shop walked me threw how to do it. and it turned out nice
