Well I found out my other ski had a bad motor and the hull needed work so i traded my buddy for this hull and bought a motor from my other friend. She runs pretty good now. They are HARD to ride lol. I am getting better though.

Green one is my buddies.

Looks cool!

lol it was like that when I bought it I was going to paint it but when its in the water the sun hits it and the paint changes color. Its 8 year old paint but in the water it looks new! I guarantee that wasn't a cheap paint job. I think I will leave it.

They are! It takes ALOT of getting used to and ALOT of crashing to be able to ride it I still can bearly turn without falling over. Its like riding a skateboard on ice lol.

Nice score Brandon, congrats man! I always wanted to try the stand up skis. Is it even close to a motorcycle, or any other water sport for that matter?

Not at all lol. Sit down ones are like a bike but not these. I am decent on a bike I can't even turn this thing haha. Its most comparable to wake boarding I would guess... I have never wake boarded so I donno but I'm guessing that's what it would be like. I bet riding these is harder though. I can go straight all day and do long sweeping turns its the tight turns I have a problem with lol.

Just hang off and drag your knee. Seriously though, I've always heard they're hard to get used to. But, once you do, you have so many more things you can do vs. a sit down.

Ya for sure. I had a blast today! Jumpin and getting better at turning.

I was watching a guy go totally underwater and rocket straight up on a standup last summer. I watched him for 30min and I was amazed how tight they could turn. I'm pry way to big to ride one at 6'6"250lbs I would look like a monkey humping a football. I've looked into renting one when I go up north to minocqua wi but they don't let them on the lake that I have a cabin.

You could ride a 750 I'm sure. My buddy is 6'1" 250 and he rides a 440 just fine. I'm 6'1" 170 so I guess it's about right for me lol.
