stumble blocks

[Ronald van Essen]

Hi everyone,

Mr Snowdog is preparing/building my Villain and asks me if I want the stumble blocks on it.

Can anyone tell me what they are and what their purpose is? Pictures are mostly welcome.

Thanks Ronald -aka Moron

I could be wrong but I believe stumble blocks are basically blocks that are placed toward the front of the tunnel on the inside walls of the sponsons. They keep the boat from getting too deep while cornering and hooking.

Thanks,

I've seen that on a couple of pictures of Villains. Maybe a reply from Grimracer what's the best option. My boat will run with a stock K&Bss (thanks Tunnelbill) and a octura 1440.
