I'm not sure what the last comments were about. I guess you can't please all the people all the time!! thanx again I would recommend this to everybody to try at least once!!

    My curiosity turned adrenaline.Once I heard about being able to tour the city from the other side, it was a MUST DO!! Best experience I ever had. The crew showed great professionalism. A fun bunch of guys. As for method of payment, many options were offered. No issues! I admire any individual that is able to turn there passion and hobby into a business. As to the one negative comment.TRY IT! you just might like it. Great job JettyJumpers. Going on my 4th tour next wk.

    Yeah dude. Nothing like the feeling of being on the water and then jumping out of it on a jet ski eh? I been riding Lake Michigan since '95 first on a stand up, the an HX for many years. Just got a new Yamaha FZX (something like that), its got great power, but just don't handle like my HX. Only my first sesson with it. Ride on man.

    Sweet.......we have the same here in Daytona.....jetties on both sides of our inlet and fabulous swells to get some great air !! Kind of funny how many people will not jump...with many rentals around but they won't come out and play hard......seems it's only a few of us old guys that have been skiing for yrs......hell I'm 61, the oldest and still bang it hard along with some 50's and 40's guys !!! We try to get others to try but NO........lol......they just want to go fast and not take a chance of getting a bruise or 2........lol........oh well, keep jumpin boys and have a blast !!!!

    This is the first thing I do when we go down to Mexico. Went out way too far one day and the deep sea fishing charters were yelling at us to turn around. I looked back and couldn't see land. Definitely need your sense of direction because u can get lost really fast.

    Back in 98 I had 2 yamaha gp 800s. We used to go out on lake michigan and jump the big waves in the fall and spring. We were really good at it and I told my dad I wanted to race and do freestyle for a living. He laughed at me and talked me out of it. I wish I would have kept with it. We used to get 15 foot waves on the south end of the lake! I really miss it......

      They go snowmobiling & sled riding! When there's a lotta snow in the streets, they grab the bumpers on the back of buses & bumper ride around Brooklyn!!

      Well he mentioned he used to be in the carpenter's Union so I'm sure he is handy. He most likely does handy work during the winter.

  • @RickDeckardMemories
    @RickDeckardMemories 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I got curious, so I looked up the company this guy is running, and customers' reviews. Looks like when he ran from his carpenter job and the "screaming foreman", he was also running from responsibility. Looks like he succeeded)) Strong-arming customers to pay hundreds of dollars in cash, pressuring to pay extra $50 for a few lousy pictures that sometimes don't get delivered, arbitrary cancellations, web site with no prices... Pretty shady! Good job promoting this, NYT!

    LOL that is such horseshit, if you are learning a lot about yourself on a jetski there cant really be much to learn!

      Yikes, the ground is a lot harder. Ive fallen off my motorcycle on dirt and concrete. The water is a softer landing. Plus its hard to get a good tan if you wearing safety gear. Ill stay in the water. Ride on. Ride what you love man.

    So how much fossil fuel did you burn to go on this little joyride? You'd think people would be more frugal with the energy crisis currently going on.
