there isn't really that much of a wake behind a seadoo and plus you wouldn't be able to get a tower or pull on it. But it would be great for hitting sliders and other jumps if that is more of your style. Maybe even wakeskating, becasue you dont need a very big wake to wakeskate.

You can't really jump very high. See doo's have very small wakes. Like Matthew said, they are great for sliders and wakeskating though. They are also just fun to ride.

i've had a Sea doo x-20 for the past 2 years ( the one with a tower and a fatsac) and its treated me well for how cheap it was. Its got a nice hape and size wake but for wakeboarding its way too soft. My dads selling it so if u want a cheap oat leave a line.

When i can't get behind a good boarding boat i'll use my jet ski. it's ok for workin' on your switches and ollies but ya definatly want the big boat wake for the big air!!!!!!

i ride behind a jetski all the time... the wake is horrible but fun to practice riding on... i have a 74 glasstron jetboat that i usually ride behind it has pretty nice wake...so a real jetboat isnt that bad

if your gonna get a sea-doo get into wakeskating. they even ride behind a sea-doo on the wakeskating events at the pwt. but for wakeboarding your just gonna be doing tricks of other boats rollers cuz sea-doos don't really have a wake.

i like riding behind my sa doo, because when my folks arent going on the boat my sis and i can just go out wakeboarding, i work on jumping, edgeing riding witch

i ride behind it because you dont really need a spotter and the other stuff like a boat

but i ussually like riding behind my boat for real stuff

i have a yamaha ar230, the jetboat with a tower and a really nice big swim platform it has actuallly good wakeboarding wake.
