Doesnt this draw concern. Is this the typical outcome for any boat that flips in this class... Aqua mania went over and the boat looked fine, what is the difference? Aqua-Mania Flipped at around 80mph or less...this one was doing a lot more. and if you check the clips..what I know Turbine cat guys use these...or equivalents http://www.tigerperformance.com/mil_SBAhome.asp http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OGNU9z4-zw Which these guys didnīt. I myself strap the regulator beneath my right shoulder belt while strapped so that I can reach the regulator. Didnīt see the regulator anywhere close in the clip with the cockpit cam. |
A tragic loss to the sport we all love

The crash...... |
So sorry to see this, I was to fly to Dubai last night from Kuwait, I heard of the accident around 6 pm (local), shortly there after they announced they were cancelling todays event.
I certainly respect that choice! I hope that they will study this accident and improve safety features. God Speed Team Victory. |
