wave jet a la ruski

Post by friggin old guy » Thu Jan 26, 2012 6:22 pm

Came across this thing out of Russia. Near as I can tell, it only comes set up with left foot forward.........does that mean all Russians are goofy?

http://www.jet-surf.com/en/jetsurfs.php

So.....here are my suggestions:

1) Eliminate the attached hand throttle and make it wireless
2) Make the engine compartment totally waterproof so you can take it in the waves
3) Set it up so that you don't have to be goofy to ride it
4) Blow up the factory and all blueprints so that we NEVER EVER have a chance of having obnoxious crap like this in the lineup

PS if it's Russian mob money that provided the seed money for this product, I'm just kidding about blowing up your factory. Really.

I have one of this amazing toy and i would like to share my experience.

1) They are working on new version with wireless handdle
2) You can use it in waves. And waterproof engine is bulshit...you need water for cooling.
3) I have model with straps for both sides. Also you can have it without straps but than it is harder to do carv.

I see you only joined this Forum a few days ago and you seem to have a lot of info on this product.

So go ahead and DON'T waterproof your engine compartment, totally ok. Most watercooled engines don't like salt water in the crank case but.......if you spray enough WD-40 on it I'm sure it will be all good.

I think it might be awhile before this sport gets into strapless vs strapped discussion
