I went out and did a little work on this one. Was able to get fairly deep but would not be able to ride out. I was using the leg in the water method to get it going. Should I be bringing my leg back into the tray as soon as the nose starts to dive? Every time I would come off towards the inside. I definitely need to figure out where my weight should be.

I have one but the switch broke earlier that day haha
@Aquaholic that was an awesome ride out from sitting on the hood to popping out of the water standing in the tray... Pretty Slick!! I can ride around on the hood like that but have always felt kind of goofy crawling around on the ski tryi g to get back in the tray usually ending up swimming! Gonna have to give this a shot!!

I have the same problem when i try to ride out. Does anyone have some tips for me 
Just bought a2014. First time ridding stand up. Modded the steering for quick steer.
I can't get this trick down. I can sometimes get it to go a little under but then it pulls the ski out of my hands. Most of the time I fall off or spin out.
He makes it look so easy.
Gonna practice more this weekend. Maybe I need to let the front go under slightly before I gas it. I've been turning and gasing it almost at the same time.

Ill kind of turn slightly opposite direction then turn lean way way forward (think head over nose) and gas it to go under
I'll try that this weekend. 3 day weekend. Woo hoo. Maybe I'm not leaning forward enough. Thanks for the tip.

How long did it take for you guys to learn how to do this trick? Does it normally work out the first time?
I still haven't got it down. But I'm a complete noob on stand ups. I bought mine last summer and only rode it on the weekends. I think I've tried it about a dozen times with only a handful of those times the ski would go a little underwater and pull out of my hands as I pinned the throttle. I haven't ridden since mid Sept. so I haven't got to try it anymore. I'm determined to get it down this year.

So I got the subbing part down. First try went under no issue. could do them consistently. I'm having issues getting back into the ski and riding it out. Got my knee on it a couple times and slid off. Could use some advice. Going to work on them this weekend. Here's a video mid way through I sub it about a dozen times.
I have tried a turn sub but i cant get the nose to sink under the surface of the water

In the Begging, I found that its easier to sub the jetski if you go slower. Also A full tank of gas really helps weigh down the front. When you are going to sub it, lean forward, turn hard, pin the throttle, and commit.
Thanks, ill try the subs again with your tips
