Today i have found a new TOY to past the time

Post by Blimey »

Went to the beach today with wife and kids as i knew a few mates were going to be there on thier

JET SKIS :wink:

What a buzz, took to it like a duck to water excuse the pun :lol:

If anyone has tried this they will agree.

Took a while to get to grips with firstly getting onto your knees and then balancing it so you can jump onto your feet, but the power is Immence :shock:

So fast makes bikes feel slow as they don't waiste any energy anywhere, but very very exhausting on the body though :?

Also had a burn as a pillion on a 2 seater jobby doing over 70mph and the wife and eldest boy did to getting a pillion ride.

Deffo looking a getting one of these now and a damn sight cheaper then trackdays.

If you get a chance try it, believe me its awesome.

Not quite master the jumps yet but hopefully will get another chance to practice this.

Hopefully post some pics and vid at a later date :wink:

Done it a couple times and you're right it is very fun.

They seem faster than they are hehe. You're definitely right about the body workout too.

I know exactly what you mean :)
AND I can't wait for the next weekend, when I am planning to test a mate's jet-ski to the limit, and if it's alright I'll buy it from him... and the season is just started :evil:

Great fun!

Mate had one, had a go with her on the back down the embankment, plymouth.

Daft cow when i turned slow to the right she leaned right not left and rolled it lol! same as the one in the pic above, and believe me it was a shit to roll back over while bobbing about in skank water

And cheese, its not the jet ski's but the d'head kite surfers i hate!
