Pretty funky looking but hey,I'm pretty sure they sell floats for the ultra stick.I think they are the same ones I have on my 25 size cub.Your biggest problem is going to be those bomb thingys biting the water and flipping the plane around.Good luck though..

I have something similar that I have had great success with this season, I made the float and the tips and after some adjustment with hieght etc it has been a blast! OS 25 FX with a pipe now . . .
