tower mirror for profight ?????????

whats the best tower mirror for a profight tower?I mean one thats works good. i have one right now but its not that great.I seen one on a new supra that look like it worked right. i want one that doesnt go down when you are on the water and that is not uneven. if anybody can help i have ski supreme sp 220 2004

I bought a Proflight mirror for My Proflight tower thinking it should fit. Guess what ? it didn't There wasn't enough articulation on the arm or mirror to work properly.

I ended up buying a Sklone from http://www.boardstop.com/product_info.php?cPath=59_120&products_id=911&osCs id=tdpdd7lk8etcerrbn5a9qtprg3 Make sure to get the ball mount.

so does this mirror work with out any chages to it.does it look even when it on tower.does the mirror fall down?

wakeair. any size clamps, fully adjustable arm.

mirror works great just make sure you have a mirror with ball mount and get the attachment ball
never had a problem with movement looks great

Gabriel,
I bought the same one as Sparky.

I bought the one from Pyramid Mfg. on ebay. Doesn't work. You can't get it to "square" up.
I emailed him for help, but didn't get anywhere.
Oh well...you get what you pay for.
I will look into the one above.
And, anyone want to buy my other one? Ha!

the mirror that i have now is a wake air so nacho that mirror sucks. the one need looks like sparky jays has. i wonder if it works as good as it looks??????????????????

Lauri, do you think it would work on my Pro-flight G-force (2 3/8")? I think we have the same mirror.

Sparky, can you use the extreme mirror with that arm and ball mount? Also, how does the mirror line up with the windshield since the tower doesnt really line up with the windshield. Ive been thinking about getting one but it seems like the mirror will be right in my face. I thought the proflight towers were 1 3/4 not 1 7/8.

Rodney, I'm not sure. The problem with ours is that it just won't square up with the windshield. I think there is too much angle to the front leg of the tower, and it just doesn't "articulate" the right way!
Check them out on ebay, it is a good strong mirror mount, and looks good...just doesn't work on our tower.

have your checked out dbot5 mirror? fits any tower out of the box and can be adjusted to any angle and has a quick release

Gabriel, yes it does work as good as it looks! Steve, I'm not sure about the extreme mirror. I've actually lowered it a bit from that pic. It sits about three maybe four inches above the windshield and it squares up nicely to it. My tower is 1.90. I'll post some more pics if you want Steve.

...and the mirror is a CIPA universal windshield mount one, but you just take off the mirror from the other hardware. You wind up using just the mirror, the curved spacer/washer and the twist nut. It lines up nice and I've never had it move even the slightest.

Here is a Pic of the Fundamental Industries Carbon Fiber mirrior arm on a pro flite tower


And here are some pic's on my FTC tower

Myself, I still like the billet look better. Carbon fiber is all over nowadays...too played out. It looks good on your boat Grant with all the black though.

Sparky: Carbon is played out???? Are you kidding Umm the last time I checked EVERY SINGLE mirrior arm was made out of aluminum so if anything IMO is played out its Billet. I understand the back dosent go with every tower but I personally love the way it looks.

Grant, I kinda meant in general. Since I'm in the trade, I see alot of it. Every puddle jumper I get into around the shop seems to have some on it somewhere. IMHO, billet's classic look is timeless, it'll always be "in" style. Like I said it looks great on yours. Would'nt look so good on mine.

Oooo Yea the ricers "Over" use the stuff like crazy I see your point. For shure

Ricers?? I wasn't singling out just them! I was talking about ALL the import junk!!

I also like this one. Ordered today.

after looking at every body tower mirrors i think the one that i would go with is the one sparky jay has but i dont know what brand is the hole set up is ???????????? ??????????????????????????
if any body knows let me know that be cool.

The mount is by Skylon and the mirror is CIPA universal windsheild mount. Walt posted a link above for the mount. The mirror I know is available through Overtons.com or Westmarine.com

I just looked at Walts link and you can buy it all right there. Select "ball mount" arm and "ball mount" mirror and select your tower bar sive. (should be 1 7/8 unless you have a Chubby Pro flight tower)

thanks sparky
