What it made and sold

2024 · Confirmed

2024 · Confirmed

The association announced on 30 September 2024 that VK Composites had completed the homologation, so that it could advertise the Hyperion as IJSBA Race Legal for products consistent with the specifications it had supplied. Its report of 1 October 2024 lists VK Composites among four applicants that had completed the preliminary application and were eligible for competition.

Likely

The Japan Jet Sports Association's class rules of 2026, in the archive's reading of the Japanese, allow an aftermarket hull with fixed handlebars and a stock-regulation engine in Expert and M Ski-X Modified, and say that the only one approved at present is VK Composites' AQUA-X; the rules for Novice Ski-X Stock say the AQUA-X may not be used in that class. The archive reads the VK Composites of these rules as the IJSBA's applicant from the name, an inference.

High for what the association says; it is one side of a disagreement whose other side is held only as a newspaper lead. (as IJSBA Hyperion hull application above)
