Some sort of kawasaki when I was in 6th grade(1986).
1st ski I owned was a 300 in 1992. I freestyled it for all it was worth. Sold it 2 years later. Got a x2 in 1996. I hated it. Worst of both worlds. Sold it 6 months later. Got a 96 superjet in January 2007. Now I have to say " Yes dear, I do realize that I am obsessed with my jet ski" everytime paypal shows up in the bank statement.
 
First ski are these 2 couches at my beach house.....

First ride was on a friends SeaDoo GTI.

Then I bought an STX-R.

Got bored and bought an X2.

I consider the X2 my first "ski." My first boat was the STX-R.
 
Been riding my uncles sit downs since I was 10 then when I turned 16 I bought a 1990 Kawasaki 550. I have owned 12 different skis since then (3 years ago) my dads not to happy with my new addiction.

Bought a 1990 Seadoo SP for $400 when I was 14 Had a blast all summer.
Sold it the following summer and bought a pos 550. Wrenched more than I rode.
Bought a 440 and 550 the following year.
Sold them all and bought a 93 750 sx<< what an upgrade.
Bought 2 HX's and had the 750sx too.
Sold them all and bought a 2004 SJ.
Built it up than wondered how I was to pay for college, so it's gone
Plan on getting back in next winter with a new SJ, and SXR.
 
Here is the first standup I ever rode. I got it as a partial trade for a dirtbike I was getting rid of. Still learning how to ride it. It is an '82 JS440 bored to 550 with motor work done by group K.
