The first day ever really riding my new EME Q8 Sky was in the Detroit River Days Jet Ski show. After spending a little time getting use to the new ski and practicing a couple failed flat water BFs in the chop, a cabin cruiser went by and I decided to not hold back. So I just GRIPPED IT & RIPPED IT and this is the result.
:brap:

congrats, you made it look easy, and good song choice!

The cabin cruiser made it easier but it essientially comes down to form

How's the motor feel?

Congrats, staying low in the tray like that will help you down the road when going big

Thanks Josh...Motor hits like a bomb and I absolutely love every bit of it. A buddy of mine is awesome at BFs and kept pushing me to stay low in the tray and kept telling me it's all about timing and form. When I listened to him I got all the way around efforlessly.

very nice!! i dont think i can wait another 2 months for my Q8!!

You are going to love it once you get it....I can't even begin to tell you how fun that hull is, as I have been having a blast on mine.

sweet what motor/pump combo you running?

I am running a XSCREAM SS846 with a Skat Kawi 145 set back Mag pump....hooks up like a top fuel dragster. I am still getting use to the power as it is quite a bit for me to handle. I hope to post up my build thread soon.

So I have only ever gotten all the way around doing a barrel roll once on my SJ. I tried a three barrel rolls for the first time the other day on my new Q8 and nailed all of them. Each time going bigger...I hope to have more video soon.
