In my case there was someone controlling the throttle of the jet ski. So I had a spotter. I can see an issue with shallow water. They took me out into 8 foot water...maybe deeper?

There has been one of these the last few times I've been at our lake. They are using it in a shallow no wake zone cove. I was anxiously waiting for the guy to do a header into the bottom but unfortunately it never happened. It looked cool for the first two minutes or so. I'm curious how the law is going to treat these. The guys I saw didn't have a spotter and in a no wake zone. Wonder what rules apply?

While in MN this past weekend I tried the JetPack thing. I had a blast and got the thing up about 10 -15 feet. Also did the submarine maneuver. If you get up towards Lindstrom MN I recommend giving it a go. Not cheap but great instructors and gear.
