Blaster Anyone ever ride two people on a WB1?

[Dustin88]

I am thinking about replacing my x2 with a blaster. I someones ride my X-2 with two people on it, its hard to get started but actually rides really good once you get going. Anyways I know the WB1 is a one seater but anyone even rode with two people and how hard was it?

It's doable, again like you said its hard to get started but its not too bad. Just have to have 2 people who have good balance.

You are allowed to ride 2 persons on a WB1 (its in the op manual). Not sure what the load rating is though.

Cool, I didn't know you were even allowed to ride with two people according to Yamaha. Now if even more set on getting a WB1!

It's doable. Load rating is 300 lbs. Sits LOW so throttle up fast. Layne is sooo right about balance!

I'm about 200 and my boy is almost 100. This is coming back to the dock at part throttle.

Its about the same effort as a X2

Cool took my new blaster out today and it ran perfect, lots of fun! I can see how two people is very doable but I think no wake zones are going to be very hard to stay up with two people!

Honestly these skis make so much less wake than any boat idling I don't see how it really matters. I usually keep half throttle anyways.

why do they always want to ruin our fun

 

[dmvmechanics]

2 is no problem. its easier than with the x-2 especially with the grab handles on the B1

 

[Dustin88]

Yep just rode two up other day, took a little while to master the start, but after I got started it was fine!

Used to do it when my ass wasn't as fat. It was fun.

Our waveblaster 1 is our "cruising" ski. hahah. It helps that my wife is 110 lbs.

I like driving blasters while a girl is riding on my shoulders

Drove a B1 in the surf with moonie on the back, we laughed so hard the whole time.

Nick's wife and I rode my b1 once, and we did great! We were all tooling around in the inlet. I think you would have fun trying it! You should have someone take video!!
