What is a jet ski chase rider?

A member of our staff on a separate "chase ski" remains in the ride area for the duration of your rental period.

Is it hard to flip over a jet ski?

It's hard to flip a personal watercraft, they're incredibly stable and built to handle a heavy passenger load. Flipping typically happens when a rider gets overly aggressive in a turn, or possibly gets caught in a wake. A flipped PWC won't sink because its hull is designed to float even if it takes on water.

How do you ride a jet ski without falling?

Use Your Throttle

So, when you slow down or ease up on the throttle, it gets harder to steer especially when riding in rough water, and you can end up falling off. If you need to avoid a collision or boating accident, don't take your finger off the throttle but keep your speed up and steer away from the danger.
