i think if you filled the bilge with water and filled any coolers/storage compartments with water, you'd make it a little bigger Shocked

however, i would say that's probably not a good idea. makes a wave runner easier to flip/harder to stay on!!

maybe get a fata$$ friend to sit on the back of it, throw the back end of it down in the water? Laughing

You can do tricks w/out a wake.

You can do amazing things with a wakeskate.

You can also hit sliders.

Other than that if you want a jet ski to make a big wake, drop it in the back of a SuperAir..haha

Sorry Bowen, slightly different than just jumping. If you jump on a skateboard you'll watch the board go forward and you not...similar with a wakeskate.

You have to pop it. IE you have to push down with your back foot to create a popping motion and when the board starts to go up you have to slide your front foot up the board, which will in turn level the board out.

Then land and hopefully stay on Wink
