Well this is my only other trick..

There is two ways of doing it but the way I do it is like this..
(scuppers, bilges are welcomed)
To the right..
Im going about 5-10 mph, I turn right hard, I step foward and put my left foot foward on the right side of the tray.. My right foot steps into the water, lean forward, push the front of the ski under and gas it, All at the same time ! Once you master getting underwater you can decide how far under you wish to go.
I hit bottom 15' hard at a lake next to a boater with a depth finder, Troy counted 5-7 seconds under in Havasu..

To pull out of it in the tray takes some very skilled work and practice if you go deep.. I do it by opening my eyes and looking at the ski (fresh clean water only) and grabing it (where ever) to pull myself back in the tray as well as straighting out the ski.. grab the bars again, blip the throttle (if it still will blip) and power out when you see daylight again..

It's a combination of turning and pushing the nose down by leaning forward/into the turn and gassing it to get under.

How come the engine doesnt flood??? Water in the air intake cant be nice.

The engine uses the air inside the hull as water fills the bottom of the bilge first. You can stay under for a couple of seconds no problem with a good hood.
