It is late so I don't have any pics, but did she ever hit a sandbar. The damn nature lover was watching a heron or something and didn't realize that it was 6 inches deep. I was slightly in front of her but when I looked back for a second she was ass over tea kettle and my SN no longer has a pole... Tore it right off, but the cables are still intact. Tomorrow I will be surveying the damage and deciding what to do...

I fear i may one day hit bottom in the river i ride up every now and then. My friends got stuck in our seadoo because they werent planed out. Its pretty intense riding over glassy water and seeing the bottom right under the water with trees sticking up

that sux that happend to me in corsons on the creek side, went out for a quick ride before i knew the ski bumped once, bumped twice, and then thumped and right above my knee caps caught the bars threw me in a front flip cartwheel flair and i landed on my back in no joke 2 inches of water. I def. dont want to do that again, but I look back and realize how much worse it coulda been and how i wish i had my god damn go pro hooked up, the footage woulda been priceless.

LOL....thats just plain funny!!

I did that in Daytona......hurt like hell.... had a lot of bruising especially the ego but nothing broken which is always a good thing......was just glad that I made it out in the surf (being a nonsurf rider) and was gunning it when WTF......I was laying across the hood......lol......didn't see that coming!!!

I have a SN aluminum coming for 200$, and it is -4" which I wanted anyways (I am 6'8"). I am going to use my 2 broken poles to fabricate 1 new one minus 2 (one broke up top, this one broke on the bottom)... I want to switch to a roundie but dont want to shell out the cash for the conversion bracket, and move the hood hooks....
