Doesn't look like they used it in the competition. Jake Bright streamed some testing on his Instagram (Krash_And_Burn_JB) 30 minutes ago. It's a cell phone vid from 100 yards away, but it's better than nothing.

I think you can only view it through the Instagram app https://www.instagram.com/krash_and_Burn_jb/

Edit: Somebody in the other thread is saying the demo ski sank today...

I rode SS all weekend and we had some big surf, I am pretty sure this is the ski that they sunk. Not sure if it was recovered....maybe some westcoast surfriders can chime in with details.
Washed up last night, according to some guy on Instagram:

"Right place at the right time!! Saw a jetski floating in the surf around sunset and thought it looked lonely with no owners in sight. Couldn't see anybody in the waves, so I waited for a few minutes and went out waist deep to pull it up on-shore. Jason helped tank it out with me. We called the local authorities and reported. Feet were numb at that point, so I ran in for a quick shower and grab my headlamp. Came back out to a call from the Coast Guard that they were going to launch a full search & rescue!! After about 20 min standing by the ski in the dark, a very excited dude ran up with a cell phone light and was more than relieved to get his baby back!! Prototype Krash Industries jetski was lost today in the heavy surf. Been looking for it all day, luckily he called off the search and no wasted resources tonight! Don't see this everyday... highlight of the evening for sure!!"

Crazy! it was actually recovered! Damn lucky. yeah, all I heard was they were sending out as many drones as possible to try to find it the day it sank but to no avail.
Def were in right spot at the right time.

On a couple of positive notes

1. Krash figured out the industry. Lose your ski and it will return home (like a lost dog). - buy a RTR Krash for 12k and you'll never lose the ski in the surf.
2. Actually it would be great to have some understanding on how the ski faired from being waterlogged for so long. I mean the engine is probably toasted but still - its an interesting test/scenario.
3. Rather have this happen on a prototype than a production ski.
3. Need to know why it was lost/sank - Was there something wrong like with a hood seal? Was this deliberate?

This is funny...


They didn't figure out anything they got lucky. Very lucky... the last ski that sunk in pacific city returned as only a piece of the bulk head and the hood.

The sinking was not deliberate in fact it almost ruined the rtp program...

Crap I had no idea. I am actually in the market and wanting to be and think positively about what Krash is accomplishing.

I am very glad everyone was ok and the ski was recovered. I myself had to be towed once by my buddy. We were the only two out there in 4+ foot surf and my ski blew an exhaust coupler with bilges pumping and I got towed.
 
50 cal is a very nice ski @Ochocoronas has one in our crew. He can tell you a lot good things about it. There are some youtube vids of a guy shedding and flipping with just a 701 in the surf. That Kavinici motor must be a beast!
