What I am getting at is he has ALOT of time in these boats running much faster speeds than this video.
To the OP, you sound like someone who needs some training or experiece before you post stuff like this. In your latter post you are concerned about turning at 30-40mph, that shouldn't be concern in any boat. I am not trying to be a hater, just pointing out the obvious
Agree...I don't think it was intentional but this type of thread can get out of control on this forum, maybe stating something like "is this a good technique?" or similar which would be more like an educational or discussion opportunity would have come off better.

I do. OP chose that derisive title on purpose then back-pedaled upon being called out- classic internet chest thumping.

If you can get a brain scanner I have it in the forefront of my mind. Let me know when you want to scan. LOL.

I was just hoping to see the girl in the second video spend less time behind the front seat while the boat was at speed.

The OP realized his mistake and deleted his posts since he cannot delete the thread. Time to let him off the hot seat IMO. Maybe someone can find the video for those who missed it though.

Someone please post the original link!! I love videos of boats running 100mph! Mostly because I will never be able to afford one!

Only thing I see wrong with that video was some close passing and the fact that the boat and video is not mine And I agree about the wind noise! That was horrible!
