300/440/550 Fountains on an X2?

So how do one get on the hood without busting your balls on the bars? Anyone? A video would be nice!:Banane01:

This isn't a 5' 130 lbs guy.. Its Jeff ! I think he shows you at least 3 ways of getting on the hood and back in the riding area ! I don't think it shows the flip onto the front.. but this guy can still walk around the X-2 easyer than most can walk around a sea doo !

I dont have a video, but I slow down with a right hand turn and toss my leg over the bars. I then let my legs and lower body in the water to help start the diving motion.
I am still working on this technic.

i probably do it the most awkward way also...going straight then put left foot over and put foot on the narrow side rail, then quickly put the right foot over and place on rail, your then on the hood. only part sucks is when you pull the right over, your gonna have to let the throttle go for a second or two, not to bad though, then from there you can do what you please, fountains, carves, whatever floats your boat.

From about 20mph, throw it sideways and as its sliding just walk down the inside and jump on the hood just as it stops, a bit tricky but a nice transition.

how come whenever I embed a youtube video in a forum, all that shows is the html code

You just have to copy and paste the URL on here for the video. You don't need to embed any you tube videos. They will put up the player by just posting the link.
