Papa W im with you bro' i jetski as well and the HUMONGOUS(??) amount of people who have only been on a jetski 5mins and then think they are world champion wave jumpers and stunt pullers is unbearable. The only time i'll wave jump is if there is nobody within 100metres of me because it is not fair to them as jetskis can seem pretty daunting objects to them. Now im betting this guy is one of them dudes who had only been on a jet ski 5mins because he would have known how not to be taken off a wave i.e dont go sideways on!!.

Rant over just dont think its fair people are cornering you man :P :x

WHAT A SHAME THAT THERE ARE SO MANY NARROW MINDED PEOPLE ON THIS FORUM.

MOST JETSKIIERS ARE SENSIBLE, BUT LIKE CAR DRIVERS THERE ARE THE ODD ONES THAT A IDIOTS - PROBABLY THE SAME CAN BE SAID OF SOME SURFERS, BUT DON'T THINK THAT WERE ALL ALIKE 'CAUSE WE AIN'T - I HOLD A RYA IN PERSONAL WATERCRAFT AND LAST SUMMER HELPED A SURFER WHO GOT INTO TROUBLE BACK TO THE BEACH IN NORTH DEVON - BET HE WAS GLAD I WAS THERE THAT DAY !

AS HAS ALREADY BEEN SAID - LIVE AND LET LIVE.

Enough of the SHOUTING mate!

You clearly havent read the whole thread (or discovered caps lock) as you will realise that PapaW is a little isolated in his views. To come on here and take a pop at everyone is out of order and if you clearly havent taken the time to read all the posts you wouldnt have written what you have.

This is actually the first time i've chosen to comment on this thread alotho i've been reading it for a while now. PapaW is entitled to his opinion and i'm not going to agree with it or disagree. We've all, including PapaW, been happy for jetskiers to come on here and present there views and chat it through. All that is asked of you when coming to this forum, which i find friendly and enjoyable, is to give a grown up argument in a positive, friendly manner.

I wonder if you even bothered to read to the end of this one post or if you are already writing some rant based on the first 3 lines?

Agreed, thats what we want also - and feel free to visit our forums: http://www.pwcforums.co.uk/ where we'd love to discuss your concerns with PWC users so we can all learn from this.

I think you'll find we shout and sound aggressive more as a result of the idiots who plague our sport, we hate them as much as you do - and when we all get tarred with the same brush that really does offend us.
