This is me, 20ft in the air. Things you should know:

It’s super fun

It’s not that hard

It’s super fun.

Will answer questions regarding this sport but be advised I’m in the single digits hour wise on this thing.

1. Looks super fun

2. If this is a sport it is the drifting of water sports - more of a ballet on water.

3. Looks super fun and I’ll do it regardless of needing ballet shoes and a tutu.

Have you mastered the dolphin jump yet?

Do you have a regulator or something for propulsion somewhere or is it just full on all the time?

I imagine it similar to hanging on to a fire hose and I’m sure I’m wrong there.

The throttle position on the jetski determines output. When we started the jetski driver was varying throttle a lot, now the only time it’s not wide open is when we’re first getting up or coming down. The rider has a ton of control it all just happens a bit faster at full throttle.

“Mastered” probably not but I can do them and get a good 5 ft of air between me and the water.

Counter points:

1 - It is.

2 - as drifting is to racing is a good comparo

3 - no tutu needed but style points are always available
