x2 training wheels lol

[Krashtestdustin]

so i may be picking up a x2 here soon for the wifey and little one to ride around on while im on my fr if i dont decide to just get a new spark and was wondering how hard it is to find the floaty kits that used to be made for them since she will be riding with my little 6 year old

Good luck. May have to buy the whole x2 when you do find a set.

Even riding two-up with a toddler I'd recommend getting something bigger. Like the spark you suggested or even a Waveblaster 2. WB 2 is the proven Yamaha components we're all used to with SJs, etc.

There are many, many better options for cheap money out there than an X2 for the purpose you are trying to fulfill.

Buy a bigger boat. If they are tooling around, get a Yamaha xl 760.

Wife and I rode with my 18m old on the waveblaster 1 last season. Only thing is I dont know how my wife could have gotten him back on if she fell off.

 

[Krashtestdustin]

well im getting the x2 regardless for the trade was the only reason i was asking, i just figured i give finding the floats a try to see how much of a challenge it is nowa days just to see if i could kill 2 birds with one stone

Two people actually sitting on an X2? Doesn't sound like fun.

i throw my 3 year old on my x2 all the time. me and my wife even did a 2up race on it. its no biggie. a set of tubbies sure helps it stay upright. your wife needs to stand over the kiddo and the kiddo sits and holds onto the strap in the front. when they fall (and they will) you just put the kiddo on first and wife crawls up the back of the ski. we all know you want the x2 for yourself so dont get a spark lol

My buddy and I have deep water started on a 750X2, Stock B1, Stock Seadoo Hx. It's a one time thing to say we could. The most fun ski to ride 2 up is actually the X2. It's the easiest to get on and, believe it or not, the X2 absolutely rails corners with all that weight on the pump. Combined rider weight was over 400 lbs.
