For those who skate behind a ski.

I am investing in a new jet ski, prefferably a sea doo, and I was wondering if I really do need the wake edition to skate behind it. Any suggestions?

Note: I am not buying a jet ski strictly for skating.

Thanks in advance.

A jet ski should only be used for skatin' or shooting footy. that is the only advice I can give you, besides come to Baytown and check out cedar bayou Smash

I like the wake off my Vx deluxe, so you don't need the wake edition to skate behind

If it runs, it will pull.

Buy a nice 4 stroke, and a pylon for the back.
And when you ride, make sure the back is trimmed all the way down so the wake peaks instead of rolling over.

Sam Paulson, your logic is flawed.

i have a wake edition and like it ALOT! its a gas hog though.

it has a really nice pull and has some ass.

EJazzle, yeah I know. I was just meant, it doesn't have to be anything fancy to pull you.

RecriminatioN, i really don't like the wake edition's wake very much. i prefer the yamahas like the ones at the projects. it is mostly based upon personal opinion and style though.

Sam Paulson, exactly.

i ride behind a 1 1/2 seater kawasaki..the only time i put it in the water is to ride. or maybe to get some girls out to the lake...but then i usually skate anyway.

I have a Sea-doo GTX and love it. I would really suggest a non-supercharged one. The N/As are a lot better on gas and more reliable. I don't have any of the wake stuff. But I'm planning on getting a pylon soon. Then maybe the ballasts if I have some extra cash later in the summer.

The only thing that I don't like about the Sea-doos compared to the Yamahas is that only the wake edition comes with adjustable trim. That could help the wake a lot, and a lot of Yamahas come with that option.

Basically get whatever you can find for the best price.
