Found this on Swellnet adverts today - weigh 91kgs. 2 stroke jet boat engine - and by the look of the video fly - look like death machines.

Hmm I saw something similar a while back and was not overly impressed by anything I saw it do.

Except (as you pointed out) it's capacity to do some pretty serious damage to other water users.

I was watching it thinking it would probably be better if the thing you hold onto was solid so you could push pull on it, then I realised that is a traditional jet ski.

These have been around for a while now.

Bogans wouldn't have the skill to ride one of these that's why they choose jet skis and I don't think any serious surfer would be want to look so gay riding one - that's what we have SUP for :P

Confused. Do these require boardies over wetsuit or not? I see Speedos, boardies and wetsuit, but no combination of.

Perhaps it will be speedos over wetsuit? (and eventually a cape)
