This weekend, saw this guy w/ a GPR w/ all sorts of mod mfgr stickers on his ski... so you FIGURE that he takes care of his ski, knows his stuff... etc...right?

The guy comes into shore, nears the beach, and NAILS IT... he launched the thing up a small sand hill about 8 feet from the shallowest of water...

And then he acts like he does that all the time... (took 3 guys to drag it back into the water.)

A few minutes later, these kids take off in a brand new RXP. Now where I launch, its shallow off the beach for about 40 feet (gotta walk the ski out to deeper water right?)

This kid takes off from the launch, gets stuck on a sand bar & guns it to try and get out... i have never seen so much sand come through the pump... finally after realizing that no matter how much he hits the throttle, its not going to move... he shuts off, and needs help pulling off...

Some people must just have too much $$$

I saw a similiar thing last week. Some cool dude smoking while riding one of those new SeaDoo 3D PWC. He comes into the beach full throttle, shuts it off only 15ft out, kids of this guys family are running for their lives as he hits the beach and endo's over the front as it plows into the sand. He did the same thing... acks like he does this all the time. Whats wrong with people?

I have seen beach patroll do the same thing on east beach. Two guys get on a ski in about 4 inches of water, start it and nail the throttle and start rocking it like its a quad stuck in the sand.

That's the problem with society, you have really dumb people with way too much money, which they didn't really have to earn. They have no knowledge of this website, nor do they know how to check their oil or change a tire, or know what a wrench is for that matter. People like this should be sterilized, so they cannot reproduce. That is why the U.S. is as messed up as it is. Common Sense for sale. We'd make trillions of dollars. Just wrap in a expensive gold wrapper and call it something like Reality Jetskiing,,, they'd go crazy for it... Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Eek Eek

Now, that is the dumbest thing I have heard all day. I think someone topped you for yesterday so we can't make it all week.
