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.
