smaller wake... lip tricks are easier IMO... inside is more fun.
I want a jetski.  |

well it will force you to better your ollies...
one quick tip, on the startup you kinda have to 'foil' the board out of the water to get up quick, then once your up wait until the wake on your heelside barely starts to straighten out, then cut hard on your heels and hit it like an inside out, its probably the biggest wake you will get from the jetski so take advantage of it. |

hyperlite640, u can take the tube that shoots the water out and put it down so it shoots into the water.... not a problem.
one-eyed sailor551, jet skis are more fun u can do awomse lip stuff the only thing that is kinda differnt is that it pulls u down more. still awsomeness. |

my friends brother had the jet ski and we couldnt go so we went to my house stole a picnin table from the local beach and made a towable rail. we proceeded to get worked by this thing for an hour until we were so beat up we called it a day
in other words it was awesome  _________________ "That Hansel is so hot right now"
