I just wannna ride my Skidoo
The day it stops being fun is the day I part it all out
For me its personal achievement and the friends that I made in the jet ski community

Hell, I would love to have a larger motor setup!!!!!!!! The that price tag takes the fun out of it now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will keep rocking my TLR cylinder for a while.
 
I ride for myself. I don't ride to impress other board members, or to impress anyone in general(unless maybe its a big boobied chick in a nearby boat).

BF's are sort of "worn out"....but its still a very cool thing to see. I have yet to see one in person. I will probably never stick the amount of cash in my ski as some of the board members have...yet I guarantee I will ride just as much, and have just as much fun as they have. Its all a matter of personal preference in my book. Ride to have fun.

I still love the power my TLR cylinder makes. Anything happens to my SS865 and I'm going back to it. The extra power is nice but it's not worth $5K more.

I was surf riding ScottS's Matrix with a ported 701 last weekend and it was great in the surf. I'm more of a slasher than a backflip fan anyways.

I stil can't believe this topic is still going.

I have not, nor have I rolled. I have a mental block and pics of carnage (ski and flesh) fill my head whenever I lead into either.
I am slowly building my ski into a tank so by the time it is sturdy enough to withstand all punishment, it wil be too heavy to actually complete anything. :biggrin:

I don't ride often enough to keep any momentum up on growing a pair so it's a slow progression. :bigok:

The backflip is over rated in every motor sport. There is no style to it and it impresses people that know nothing about the sport. I can not do one and would be pumped if I could but seeing a whip on a sled or dirt bike or a barrel roll on a ski has far more talent and style involved than a backflip. I agree with you wave demon.

It is the same with snowmobiles. You can set your machine up just to backflip and nothing else and ruins the whole thing. Money shouldn't buy tricks. Skill and style are far more impressive to me.
