@1:00 it's not two different motors. It's the same motor, just tuned differently. One tune has revs limiter restricted, the other has the revs unlocked with Sport mode.
So it's called a tail stand and I was doing them back in 89 with the old SP model. Seadoo and all the manufacturers for that matter kept creeping up the length of PWCs until they got so bloated and heavy that all they were good for is straight line speed and cutting. The Sparks is still bigger that the old SP model and can't do many of the tricks that could be done with those skies. They still need to go on a diet. At the present time I am working on converting an old SP to electric power with a 2 hour run time and quick change, fast charge lithium battery packs. Target performance is 55 mph with superior trick capabilities through multiple smaller short burst jets. The majority of the fun was not in the speed it is in the handling and the manufacturers lost sight of that.
Jorgen dahl hey man. You sound like my kinda dude. I’m all in the electric world as far as bikes. I build all my own stuff. I’d love to see what your building. Think it would be fun to exchange some ideas. I own a boatshop on the island I live on in Maine. If you wanna, send me a message on here and I’ll give you my email. Thanks ian
My boss just got one and I just rode it. freaking sick. Had so much fun on it and I got to say being a dirt bike rider I love it much more fun than a boring sit down one
@@mikedesilets3324 I just think they're ugly and something that douchebag surfer dudes have. I'm just being an ass. Lol please don't take offense to it. I am what you would call "opionated"
Step in the right direction compared to todays modern pwc standards but the Waveblaster is the closest thing there ever was to a dirt bike on water and this is still a boat compared to that. However with this Spark and a new Kawasaki standup jet skis are becoming fun again. Just like every motorsport when the 4 stroke switch happens we loose some nibleness but as the tech matures we get it back. Same for quads, motor cross, and snowmobiles.
marcooconnor. All of those weigh way more then a blaster and the HX was the only one that was in the same race class as the waveblaster. While I am a fan of the xp it's not comparable To a blaster. The only three skis that were comparable to a blaster were the Kawasaki x-2, waveblaster, and the HX. The ones you mention are closer to a waveblaster 2 and not nearly as much fun.
Woah now... we can't leave out the Kawi X2.... the waveblaster 1 and 2 are by far some of the best PWC ever made for hooning. Any kawi or Yamaha SJ can rip with the right rider. The spark is still a couch... It looks like fun but it will never compare to a waveblaster or X2 that's had the same amount of money thrown at it in aftermarket performance
As a GP1800 and RXP-300 Owner, I can confirm this thing is crazy fun, I've been looking for fairly fun jetski that I can really beat on and throw around with crazy waves, and the ocean, but nowdays things breaks easy but old rx di from 03 still can take more
Its been out for a few years and still no HP upgrade? Why dont they tune the thing to have 100 at least? Ive got a 97 SPX which is on its last legs and will sadly have to transition to this
Nothing beats the 2017 Spark Trixx jet ski such a fun light weight jet ski. I have some content scheduled to be published of riding a 2017 Spark Trixx. Video is nothing crazy just a beautiful shot of some open water. The 2017 model in my opinion is the best color spec out of any jet ski. I am hoping they bring it back in future years on a new model! I need to get a proper camera set up as of now just from my cell phone which one hand on a jet ski and one hand recording is tough haha! I plan to make more jet ski content this summer!
I have GP1800R, and I took my friends Trixx out with him, he has two. The Trixx is the most fun watercraft I've been on. The GP1800R goes fast as hell, turns beautifully, But for just playing around in the water on a hot day, the Trixx is endless fun. the GP1800R gets boring after a while.
jon hipkin you aren’t supposed to tow with any 2 up ski. you are supposed to have room for the person driving, a person to watch the person behind you, and the person on the tube, wakeboard etc...
These machines are amazing, however like many others that have been around jetskis their whole lives. I find that the light small throwable hull is everything I want, but where it falls short is in its power. I get new people coming to the hobby want to do wheelies etc, but after a few minutes it gets a bit boring and I feel like a bit of an idiot doing the same simple trick uo and down the river. These machines need to have a power plant to cater for those that want to take these hulls to the absolute limits. Basically they are way to underpowered, What it needs is a small displacement supercharge engine. I thing crazy, something around the 200hp mark They just lack in that area for someone us more experienced riders. It’s too entry level at the moment. They need to take what they already have and cater to those that are more into wave jumping and 180 tricks etc
I dont have a spark but I have a Gti 130 and a gtx 260 both with IBR if your cruising along with a passenger and you pull the brake it will throw your passenger forward hard
More of a CRF 100... fun for a novice/young/new/female rider, but people I know that purchased them outgrew them in a year. Still, a nice price point for beginners.
Fair enough. However, I think if you look at a cross section of PWC market, stunt riders are more of an anomaly than a real segment. Now that Yamaha has introduced a lower priced base model, I think the Spark lineup will either disappear or move to become larger and more powerful. Again, people that I have know who purchased the Spark outgrew it quickly. Conversely, they did sell a bunch of them. Come to think of it, so did Yugo, but we all know how that turned out. :) Also worth noting I rode a 330 back in the day, and a XR 100 too. I'll happily keep my TE 510 and (haven't taken delivery yet) red GP 1800.
Ski's are not bikes, there are no beginner skis, there are no female skis, etc. With any common sense anybody can jump on the GP1800 and ride, the most powerful ski made, try that on a bike! You buy a ski by price point, features, how many people it can carry, basically purpose. To try insinuate that the Trixx is a beginner ski you will outgrow shows you should stick to bikes. A 300 pound non-athletic guy would be much more comfortable on a GP1800 then Trixx. He probabl could not even ride a Trixx. Dont confuse speed with skill level on a jetski.
Ignorance is not always bliss Tomas. Your statement "to try insinuate that the Trixx is a beginner ski you will outgrow shows you should stick to bikes" is not only incorrect English, it shows that you miss the connection between bikes to skis. Enjoy the Trixx and remember this post when you trade up in two years. :)
Chris, I have been riding skis since the 80's, I started started on the 440 so I think I know what I want. My point is ski's arent bikes. Any adult with any common sense can jump on the most powerful ski made the GP1800 or RXP-X 300 pull the throttle and ride and not kill themselves, put a beginner on a powerful sports bike and see what happens. Ski's are bought for purpose. Examples include... Do you ride in the ocean, do you want to throw it around, do you want a family ski, do you want to ride what the pro racers ride, do you own a rental company...cost and speed have nothing to do with out growing a ski. Ride what you want....but truth be told a 300lb clumsy out of shape man would have an easier time riding anything but a Spark. So I guess you mean by out grow you really mean go faster....speed means nothing to me.
Steven horsefield you aren’t supposed to tow with any 2 up ski. you are supposed to have room for the person driving, a person to watch the person behind you, and the person on the tube, wakeboard etc...
Reason is they are sold out everywhere. COVID shutdowns meant manufacturing halts, so inventory for 2020’s sold out quickly. People are selling at a profit just because they can at this point. I work for a large dealership, and we’ve been sold out of units for months already. Sold way more than any season in the last 30 years
bingaring thanks for being very insightful, I had a feeling the markup was because of covid, most likely a lot of people using unemployement money for it..
For a Harley Rider it might seem like a motorcycle but for a dirt bike rider it is totally a quad. want something that feels like a motorcycle on the water get a stand up!!!
@1:00 it's not two different motors. It's the same motor, just tuned differently. One tune has revs limiter restricted, the other has the revs unlocked with Sport mode.
I always loved the steering tabs at the back of the hull, they are spring loaded and at speed will move upward cutting drag!
So it's called a tail stand and I was doing them back in 89 with the old SP model. Seadoo and all the manufacturers for that matter kept creeping up the length of PWCs until they got so bloated and heavy that all they were good for is straight line speed and cutting.

i didnt know that adam levine sold jetskis
Spinzy715 lmao!!!!!!!
Loving my 2019 spark trixx. Donuts and wheelies on the water, I can't complain
cool. so it does the same things we were doing on xp's and spx's in the mid 90's
At least seadoos trying to bring that back
Dude mid 90s were fkn dope. The fuck you complaining about?
Yup? Complaints?
X2's?
Exactly. That’s what we’re shooting for. Can’t understand any hate on this machine. Thing is cool
Got this for Christmas and I can't wait to use it come summer!!!
I have two regular 2 up h.o. models. I love them. So much more fun than all the whale size pwcs on the market today.
No hate but they are not for big people. They are definitely built more for a trim fit person.
Love my 96 1100 ZXI
My boss just got one and I just rode it. freaking sick. Had so much fun on it and I got to say being a dirt bike rider I love it much more fun than a boring sit down one
I live in Tampa, I want to see more jetski and waverunner videos.
Tampatec n
Boring
this feels forced
These are terrific. Not only can you muck about on the flat, but it hands rough conditions (flat hull so you do feel every bump)

Stand up jetskis are more like motorcycles IMO. You actually have more of a balance and handling learning curve. Sit downs are like quads.
Hmmm didn’t know you stand up on motorcycles
TrickleDownGaming ive been riding dirtbikes since i was 12 (keep in mind im only 15 now) but yea at least on dirtbikes your always standing up
Stand up jet skis are fucking trash.

lol
Superjet, sxr, fx1, x2, wave blaster, and all the aftermarket hulls. What about those
1:50 that's not called a wheelie but a tailstand
OH OK THEN
only issue... plastic hull, if crack you need to change the whole hull or so I heard, but they look like so much fun
I would argue stand ups are motorcycles of the water
Or trials bikes for the water
Agreed. 💯

nah the x2 is
nuthinbutmuzic can't disagree. I'd still rather have a blaster but the x-2 is a still a blast.
There were many...not just the waveblaster. The Seadoo XPL with its suspension seat, the HX. the XP not to mention the RXX the list goes on.

JayBakery same thing I thought. I think he is just a pussy and couldn’t tighten it up all the way like your suppose to. Lol
I own an 87 kawasaki JS550 and I can do most of the same. bought it for 300 on craigslist.
elrictheblue yeah but they won’t go 0-50 in 2 seconds
@@mud4life46 yeah but that gets old eventually and the stand up gives more of a rush. More connection to the water. It's just more pure.
Try the new 2017 Kawasaki stand up cause boy dats a beast
To heavy to be a stand up, but yeah.
@@scarversek6419 it's a standup for the masses. It requires way more skills than a sofa.
Can confirm! I ride sportbikes and was doing... whoolies?... on this all weekend!
Kind of cool. But nothing will beat the Seadoo XP.
XPL!
Mike Pascarella 99 gp 1200r
the only thing that beats and XP is i'ts fuel lines...
96 xp was an awesome stunt machine! If it had got the 97 gsx ltd motor id still have mine today. Im getting back into the sport now n gonna build 1
Any Yamaha will smoke it
Still not as close to a dirt bike as the old wave blasters. They're still the best
And the Stand-ups are even better.
Have a ride on a waveblaster with a 1200 conversion - nearest thing to a dirt bike on the water
Jetskicentral I’ve heard there a blast. I’d like to try one some day. Or maybe build something like it

Have a big cruiser, getting one of these!
Have fun getting left behind by everyone else on the water.
I live in Michigan and me and by brother go on Lake Michigan and do a lot of tricks on our sea doos
did he say tampa is not a hot spot for motorcycles,
Tee i was about to say have you never been to tampa before 😂
Jason Davis street bikes ...
I was waiting to see if somebody else caught that 😂
Basically a new version of the XP
Slower and heavier version but with some cool new tricks and a lot of plastic.
Half the size? my SLH was the same if not smaller. Superjets are also smaller...
like the new waveblaster 1
wheelies on water is called a candle
Is it much difference between a Sea Doo spark and Sea doo spark trix? Is spark trix more quick ?
3:03 everything everything???
TAMPA IS A HOT SPOT FOR MOTORCYCLING
A jet ski wheelie is a jet walk!!!
But if you read the manual for the trixx it says it’s not designed to jump and it should only be ridden on calm lakes and ponds. No ocean.
Great Jet!!
The only motorcycle for the water is stll the original Waveblaster, not this thing.
Tampa not a hot spot for motorcycles.
Are you nuts? It’s a huge market.
Is it a wheelie if it has no wheels?
meh so I can't tow with the spark trixx? I dont wanna go with the regular spark 3up but I need the ability to tow.
The new spark can hold my leftovers pretty well, like up to 4 days.
How is the stability going fast in a straight line or chop?
Sounds like a box of rocks in a rubbermaid.
you mean snowmobile on water right?
bro pole skis e.g. yamaha superjets are more like two wheeler motorbikes and sitdowns are more like atvs
Im getting one of these for my 16th birthday which is in a couple of months. can't wait! already got a car
Not sure who told you that you can't tow anything with the 2 up but that is not true... it comes with the same tow clip as the 3 up

Hows the youtube life and stickers ?
or buy and ride an older sp or spi......much cheaper and same fun
"Wheelies" on watercraft are called tailstands.

This guy never rode a wave blaster 1 !!!!!
how fast to these go
The 90hp model tops out at around 80km/h.
Were you able to walk the next day, Sean? That's my question.
Sean MacDonald that's good. My legs would probably be dead.
Sean MacDonald put your thing in me sean
You havent seen dirtbike since you've ridden a Blaster I or a Blaster II. So many issues with seadoo spark lol
I´d say Blaster 1 and blaster 3 the blaster 2 was a dog
how fast can it go tho?
More like snowmobile on water
That’s a couch get a stand up
Go full throttle get up to 50 and then dump the brake lever and fly off

More of a CRF 100... fun for a novice/young/new/female rider, but people I know that purchased them outgrew them in a year. Still, a nice price point for beginners.

Now that Yamaha has introduced a lower priced base model, I think the Spark lineup will either disappear or move to become larger and more powerful.
