RIP to the days of sending your friends (who have never seen let alone drove a stand up jet ski) out with you go pro recording all 37 attempts of them raging while attempting to learn how to ride
seems like it would be fun for about 20 mins (without a course which not many have) seems way to stable in my opinion and even going fast it seems super stable (I enjoy the sketchy unstable feel when WOT and just hoping you don't eat it). one of the best parts of standups are that they are difficult to ride, and even when ur half decent you still wipe out and have unpredictable moments, that's what makes it fun for me. this thing seems like it wouldn't be near as fun in the surf/boat wakes or even just sliding around sideways on flatwater with a bunch of buddies. it does seem like it handles nice and would be good for racing, I just don't see it being as fun or as versatile of a ski as the previous generation for the people who already own a standup ski.
Body Beach...Lake Havsau....great place... I should know....I live across the street...30 years. Been around the little island approximately 10,000 times... estimated... Someone has to do it.
@Josh Owens yeah but pretty much everyone ends up jumping on a superjet or Kawasaki before they do on rickter or krash. especially when you don't have the money to buy a freestyle ski. you may not be doing anything crazy but going 5 feet in the air on a stock ski is still fun and way better than going fast and carving IMO.
Can u please make a video comparing the superjet to the sxr 1500 come spring im going to be in the market and my buddies all own sxr 1500s but I'm really leaning towards the 21 superjet I think the sxr will only have top speed on the superjet
Daniel Puddu it is the first year of them they can’t just put a ton of them out there Incase there is an issue with something. Easier to recall 500 then 5000
No way that it’s 500. That’s the number of units than are made in a single /day shift at Yamaha in Newnan. Sounds a little more like your dealer is nudging you with a little FOMO. Yamaha wouldn’t waste their time on 500 units let alone be able to price it at $9500 without losing money on it at that level of production. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for the content! We would all love to see some more freestyle/ Freeride videos. We need to know if you can huck it!
Mark makes everything look easy. he could flip a pontoon boat
Mark being like 5' 6" definitely helps lol
Looks like a lot of fun. I honestly dont think juniors should be on the 1500s and they look so right on this ski.
It looks like the boat is pretty forgiving, less skill required and strength compared to a 550 or an x2.. sweet ride!
I want to find a stand up so bad! Mark shredded it! Ive got the old gtx in the garage..cant makenit flip yet..well on purpose. Hahaha 🤙

Super jets are the best toy. Own one we'll see.
Dude that thing looks so fun
Glad I kept my 2012
Sooo sick!!!
Where did you get the graphics for it? I just picked up a new SJ and want to put some graphics on mine
Awesome! Are you riding the 2021 completely stock in this video?
mats , steering , graphics and basic tune
Screw speed and carving. Show us jumps god dammit

Can a 4 stroke engine really work upside down ? Kawi SXR 1500 was not good for this
It's efi
Exelente

Then just get the super jet if u dont care about top speed
Thing is hugh!
can we flip it: final verdict
in the surf yes
@@dustinmotzouris5707 can flip a 3 seater honda in the surf...
How does this compare to the sxr? Handling , power etc.
From what ive seen the sxr has more speed for top speed but the super jet is a lot lighter and probably handles better
I used to think that also for years but when it comes to that horse play on a stand up you need something lightweight
@@a.j.stafford5857 yep and kawi has always been a tank compared to the rest of the competition
@@colecooper1116 sxr is faster,and handles better. Superjet is designed to be more playful and light
Where can I get those graphics
Can you slide it on flat water?
What was that rod hooked up to the back of one of the riders on 5:13?
A 360 camera
@@dustinmotzouris5707 500? Please, tell me that you forgot ceros ... if they are only 500 they do not arrive, here,to the ass of the world.
My local dealer says Yamaha is only making 500 of these with limited availability, what are other people hearing?
about right

FWIW. My dealer was allotted two and already sold...
How do these engines not suck in water?
Intake is high in hull and water stays low.
Jeff Jacobs and
Victor “ The Slasher” Sheldon
are the true pioneers.
Not impressed with these boy’z.
