Thanks for the comment. I’ll be posting a video soon on how to properly use the VTS. It really is a Curial option especially when go through an inlet in fast moving water.
I’m glad it was helpful. Be sure and go to my channel and find the video that shows you how to enter and exit an ocean inlet. If you find yourself going from the bay to the ocean through one of these inlets, they can be very, very dangerous. The video focuses on how to use VTS. As well as your body positioning and speed.
This is the first in a series of three videos. In this video I’m going basically wsw and the waves are from the south. When going directly into a wave or crosswave you want your VTS all the way up in rough swells 2-6ft. This will raise the bucket on the rear of the skis jet. This allows the rear of your ski to slip/slide and not drag. This will keep you light and nimble. This lets you change direction quickly as you are picking lines that keep you off the swells highest points. Your speed will range from 7-20mph. This keeps your nose up and let’s your keel work for you by splitting the wave’s energy. This also keeps the water from overrunning your nose. You will see that happen when you come full stop on a day like this so it’s best to gradually slow down. Thanks for the comments. I’ve never done the yacht but they do look fun. I still ride dirt bikes at 55years young. The ski has all the same skill sets but if you fall the water is more forgiving. LOL
It’s hard for me to explain other than if you’ve done a lot of Enduro riding through timber and tight trails then that’s what my comparison is to. You really have to look ahead and try to pick your line since there’s not a designated trail to follow. You’re just making your own path according to the terrain presented to you. Second since you in water, a fluid, the waves are always changing so your constantly having to look at the surface of the water about 10 or 20 yards in front of you just like a bike. When you’re in 4-6 foot swells, you will use your body a lot and your steering is not just your hands much like you would in motocross. I don’t suggest you go out and ride in four and 6 foot swells but if you’re confident in your skill set then I would definitely recommend it if you’ve had a lot of time on a motorcycle or on a JetSki. It’s some of the most fun you could ever have on the ski. Now granted this is a large ski so it’s almost like you’re on a cruiser at times trying to turn it into a KX 450. Lol.
Could have easily edited out all the crap audio and later added audio that you could actually understand...this is just annoying and uninformative as it is.
Exactly what I needed to see
No one posts this type of stuff on the fishpro

Thanks for posting this video. Helpful to people new to riding jetskis

What trim setting are you in riding those waves

Wtf does growing up riding motorcross have to do with anything in this video 😂😂

You need new mic
Working on a mic. For now someone suggested using subtitles. With my Oklahoma accent those could be very entertaining to read. LOL

Thanks for the feedback.
