Was at the lake today coming back from a 'tour the lake' ride and was not on my SXR but on the neighbors SXR thats identical to mine other than water box, frt exhaust outlet, and short ride plate. I see 2 decent size Sea-Ray cuddy cabin boats coming at me and the are side by side-but a good bit of distance between them. Oh yeah, and my helmet is in the back seat of my truck. So I stay between the paths of the 2 boats and catch my first real double up wake-HOLY SHEIT BATMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Freaked me the kcuf out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that dam SXR that weighs bout 3 tons shot straight up like it was shot out of a cannon and had almost 0 forward momentum-I got closer to a backy than I have ever been-I AINT SAYIN I BUSTED 1-but got dam close. The really cool part was I was relaxed cuz I expected her SXR to plow through the wakes w/the stk ride plate on it and by the time I got it upside down I remembered NO HELMET!!! So I then yank the bars REAL hard to try to finish rotation and face planted it into the lake.
It was an accident-but I now think it is possible to bust a backy on my SXR like it is with the right double up wake. Sooooooo, andbody wanna go buy 2 big azz boats just so I can learn to bust a backy???LOL LOL LOL
