Much props Geek :Banane35:...your lookin' real good on your ski, we'll have to get together and ride sometime!

Thanks man! We definitely need to get together sometime and work on that stupid backflip. After watching the video of your attempts, I think both of us have enough boat to get it, but are lacking in technique. You're hitting the wave a lot faster than I am for sure, so you'll probably get it first.

The motor is still out of my hull you might be able to talk me into letting you barrow my 140 mag till I ride again.


hmmmm....that is a really tempting offer. Are you going to be around this weekend? I'll have to give you a call.

I took this vid. at '06 Wave Rave. After seeing this I sold my SXR and put together a xft/840 lamey and spent more time these past two years recovering from br. injuries, I guess thanks Matt? Freestylegeek can add any info on his ski back then.YouTube - jet ski barrel row

My, how things have changed!
That was my 120 lb stock hull, with my stock stroke Lamey motor.
Thanks for posting that Lou, and your welcome for all the barrel roll injuries. ;-)

Well Geek, I found out I was wrong. It is just a stock stroke PV Lamey...not a 5 mil stroker.:rant::bigeyes:

Regardless, his technique is significantly different than mine (better). I need to let keep the pump in the water longer, and let the engine build power. Spencer is on the gas a lot longer once his nose drops back in the water.
