    SPX, XP or other?

    Hello people.

    Ive only just joined up as im lookn to buy another ski.
    I had a 97 spx but had to sell it to buy a house!
    Now im gettn ready to buy another ski. My only problem is
    what ski to get. Id be happy to get another spx but there gettn on
    in the years so maby a 99 on xp with a 951 motor.
    The only other ski I can think of would be a gp1200r. They do seem to cost more though.
    I would use it for some family fun in the river and the ocasional enduro
    ride and wave jumping sesion.
    I would like to hear anyones experience with either of these skis and there
    preferences.
    Or any other sugestions?

    Cheers

    Murph

    All 3 are just as good as each other , the SPX would be the cheapest out of the batch ....I know a guy who has 3 SPXs for sale all are 1998 white on Black with all the go gear ...

    Hmmm.....

    Family fun, ie passengers, biscuit/board etc warrants a bigish ski, min 2 seater with balls.

    Enduro ride warrants a med-big ski with reliability & economy.

    Wave jumper warrants a sml-med ski with decent pwr & a good strong hull & internals.

    It's hard to get all that in 1 but I'd go the XPL 951cc option myself.

    However the skis Slasher mentioned are meant to be pretty sweet.
