Me too!! Can't wait!!

@@billythephoenix We must hook up and ride together in 2025. A little weekend trip!

@@VegasHyperAdventures honestly, I've been thinking the same thing We'd like to do Lake Mead 👍

@@billythephoenix hopefully the water level gets better. It was really low the kast time I went. I have a Ford Explorer and I almost had water coming in my doors. Not good ☹️

@@RyanMcIntyre I appreciate that, thanks man 🤙

If you have the trails, do it!

@@billythephoenix there's some on the saint johns river here, added bonus that it's fresh water... downside is there is gators!

We used to bring poles when we were in our boat years ago. But now we just rip!

@@billythephoenix lol, yeah you do!

@@chrisbassett3373 Yes, living life to the fullest and yesi totally remember you. In fact I just tried calling you right now because I still have your number 🤙💪👊

Thanks! We've been tossing around some dates for our next trip to Powell too. We may be doing some of those lakes in your area in the mean time.

We're fortunate to be living the water life! Let's Go!

Exhilarating!

@@funafter5081 you got that right!

@@billythephoenix 🤣🤣🤣

Lake Powell is the ultimate water sports playground!

@@billythephoenix it looks absolutely amazing!

Riding in those canyons is a blast!

Rad and therapeutic too!!

Lake Powell

@@livingwithkimjim9057 it was worth the effort to go that 40 miles one way to hit up these incredible canyons 🔥🔥🔥

@@skater_scottbeing deep in those slot canyons is pretty sweet!🤘😎

Yes, amazing!

It was four days of adventure and it was awesome!

Me too. Started riding these in the early 90's and took up the sport again in 2019...I'm addicted now more than ever!

No, you're ready to rip! Sorry for the late response.

There are no dangerous animals in the water 🤙

Not at all, I'm 65 and still riding with others my age. It's a blast!

@@billythephoenix Cool dude. I really want to get out there on a stand up. At least while I’m still standing. 😆 Thanks for the encouragement Billy!

That's a nice marina for sure! But the closest parking for the truck and trailer is about 600 feet away. We will definitely hit up Lake Mohave again, we really dug the vibe there. Thanks for watching dude! Do me a solid and hit that like button 🤙😎

@@TubZy17 it's a great ski and an amazing place to ride 🔥🔥🔥

This was our second time on Lake Mohave and our first time on this end of the lake and the scenery was spectacular. It really is a beautiful lake and shoreline as viewed from the Waverunners. Lot's of rocky outcroppings to sandy coves the entire lake. Lake Powell still ranks number one but Mohave is a strong second fav. The 113 degree air temp isn't as bad as it sounds. Your constantly in and out of the water. Notice how Lori is pretty much covered from head to toe to keep her skin out of the suns rays. Thanks for watching John!

@@billythephoenix Always cool so see nature from your side of the world! Are the water levels holding up well in the lakes and rivers this year? I haven't heard much about that in the news lately... Cheers, John

@@funafter5081 The largest reservoir in the US Lake Mead is 34% of full pool and the the second largest reservoir Lake Powell is at 39% of full pool, both on the Colorado River. Downstream Lake Mohave is at 94% of full pool and Lake Havasu is at 95% of full pool. The water continues to flow well all the way down to Yuma. So to answer your question, yes, we're at low water levels at the two largest reservoirs in the US which is critical for producing hydro electricity and for irrigation of agriculture along the Colorado River. These figures are current as of August 6, 2024. ✌

@@michaelsutherland9180 the SXR800 isn't harder to ride it's just a totally different jet ski. It's a bit lighter and more nimble. My favorite Kawasaki stand up jet ski for sure. The new Superjet is just a bad ass beast, loose and fast! I'm loving my Superjet and I'm team Yamaha all the way! 💥💪👊

The lake was refreshing and the air temp was a dry 113 degrees. It was all good!😎💪👊

Yes because I've been riding stand up jet skis for years

@billythephoenix oh OK. That makes sense! I tried for hours on a sx550. Finally stood up but fell every time I turned.

@@ajlukelepuke You have to keep on the throttle in those turns. Like anything new that involves balance, if you keep at it, you'll get it. Stand up jet skiing is pure fun!

The air temp that day 113 degrees and the water was warm. Up the lake below the Hoover Dam is a popular kayak/canoe section called Black Canyon. It's a 12 mile stretch between the Hoover Dam and Willow beach with hot springs, hiking, camping, a few sand beaches and very remote. It's a beautiful place for sure!

@@billythephoenix Haha, that's pretty warm! I watched a doco on the building of the Hoover Dam - amazing feat & I doubt that it would happen today - people were tough back then! :)

It's a beautiful spot for sure. And the smiles, you know the feeling as well. I hope you guys make it to Katherine soon!

It was! The other side of the lake was rocky with rock outcropping islands and turquoise water. This is my second favorite lake on the Colorado River with Lake Powell at the number one spot. We're going back to Powell in September, yewww!!

Yes, the red rock, turquoise water and a blue sky? Extremely photogenic!

You probably read the description and saw that fun in the sun day was from last November. Tomorrow a new adventure begins, yewwww!

@@billythephoenix It's funny Billy, I get frustrated at people who watch my videos and then ask me questions that are answered in the description...but you know what? I didn't read your description either...what a coincidence! Cheers, John

Exploring these canyons and gorges is definitely a dream like experience!

It was a great trip that was cut short so we're going back at the end of summer. Powell 2024!

That Superjet was last summer's birthday present to me. We have since got a new Superjet for her. We'll be riding them together real soon!

@@billythephoenix nice. We will have to meet up someday!!!

@@VegasHyperAdventures 👍

You will love it!!

We started at Cottonwood

If you get a chance, do it! It was an epic ride to the dam.

The scenery is spectacular! Four days of riding on this trip and we enjoyed and appreciated every moment of it. The adventures continue! Thanks for watching John ✌😎

@@billythephoenix Nice! Four days, eh? Camping at night or what? Quite the adventure! I imagine you covered a lot of ground ( water ) in four days. Cheers, John

@@funafter5081 We stayed at The London Bridge Resort on the water at Lake Havasu the first two nights and two nights at Harrah's in Laughlin right on the Colorado river. We rode over 300 miles on this trip and it was all a blast! 💥

@@billythephoenix That sounds sweet! So, I imagine they have parking for your jet skis while you stay at these places, eh? 300 miles is quite a stretch! Sounds to me like the rivers, lakes and waterways have recovered from last years drought then to be able to go that far. Wasn't Lake Havasu messed up last year? Neat stuff bro! Cheers, John

@@funafter5081 always plenty of parking for trucks and trailers. The lakes with the ultra low levels are Powell and Mead. They're up river from Havasu. The water must flow!

Yes it is Emi and in this area the water is cold and the air is hot!

@@billythephoenix beatiful for relaxing your mind

We rode Havasu and Lake Mohave that week and on our way back, Saturday, we pulled into Parker. I saw dozens of stand up jet skis and talked to a guy that said it was Run Whatcha Brung. I've heard of that event and always wanted to go but was completely unaware it was that day. Did you have a good time and what were you riding?

@@billythephoenix The water at Parker was a bit rough to have fun on the ski, but seeing hundreds of stand ups at one place was awesome. Conservatively, I'd say 400 stand ups were between Pirates Den and the dam. We had 5 guys, all on 2T superjets.

@@maxtaylor6278 yes, it was rough. I'm going next year and bringing the Superjets!

I was actually talking to a friend of mine this morning and told him I was going to make a YT video on my Hitch Hauler showing exactly what you're asking. I have a ski on a stand and will load it on the HH and launch and retrieve the ski at the launch ramp. Good question Rocketman! Should be about a week or so.

We love riding there too! I grew up by the ocean surfing all the time. But now I'm all about the bright blue skies and warm water at the river. Can't get enough!!
