Default Jetski!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well went out Sunday with mates and other half to Margate, jetski world......weather - fooking windy, sea state - fooking rough with onshore wind and a bit of rain.....i think not the best conditions for a complete novice who cant swim on a Kawasaki jetski running a 1200cc 4 stroke fuel injected zx12 lump I was bricking it.....mates said wetsuit on its in the water. Mates had a go first and said nice ski its very stable no worries....i got in sea and found it was warmer in the water than outSo got on it and JESUS FUCKING CHRIST.....got to grips quite easily but the sea it was soooooo rough but this thing just lifted up and went! bang bang bang.......................(in air)...BANG....FUCK ME i have never had so much fun in all my life, fast cars? what total bollocks compared to jetsking with 130bhp in a rough sea the rain felt like i was being sand blasted, waves crashing over me swallowing mucho North sea couldnt see fuck all in one direction cause of sea spray...think i need goggles....the acceleration is insane! The turning the jumping....i think it made it more exciting because u felt very close to death as no way would u get back to the ski in that water!!! I looked back and thought fuck the shore is a dot and i on my own!!!!! Turned back to mates (hopefully they were watching me!!!) ......as the day went on the sea got so rough everyone got ski's in,the land rover that gets everyone out got stuck in rough sea trying to get a speed boat in...nearly tipped over everyone pushing pulling thank fuck it got in!!! So i couldnt brave it that rough wayyyy to dangerous...but mates thought thought this IS the time for fun FUCKING NUTTERS.

To summarise...ditch your fast cars / track days and go jet skiing in a rough sea

i had one of the supercharged seadoos (185hp non intercooled) and in rough sea it was great, lots of air, flat sea it was fast but boring, what you need is a good swell rather than rough, with a good swell you get big waves but not so choppy, and with the big waves you can get ery big air,
