Thanks, man! This video was actually meant to go out about 2 months ago, but no kidding-it took that long to go through all the footage, edit, and export... It was 158GB, and it took 2 days to upload and encode to UA-cam. Glad you enjoyed it... Now it’s time to ride in the cold, sadly. Thanks for watching!
Thanks, man, really appreciate the support as always! We do try to put a lot into these videos... Did you enjoy the new Insta360 footage? And yes, the 158 launching service is great-such a great place to ride. Thanks for watching!
I bet after each day during your deep sleep you can still feel like you’re riding…it’s a weird feeling😊 Nice to see the fam out there enjoying the moment developing nice memories 👌🏻👍 Good to see you drop some merch now. Tshirt to be made for Megs …that’s puuuurfecttt. 😂
I know, right? We always have such a good time there... You're right though, come the evening, when you jump in the hot tub, have some good food and drinks, and just chill, you definitely feel the full day of riding. When you think about it... this is probably the most you’ll ever ski non-stop in one go-it's a full week of riding! When it’s all there on tape, it’s hard not to just constantly jump on and have a blast. I don’t think during the day I ever sat still and didn’t ride. Yes, merch is nearly there, just getting the final bits nailed down (OCD Joe 🤣). Thanks for watching as always, mate 💪✌
@@ChrisTejada-nl7mh not sure about your comment …but if you ride all day as you may know… the body thinks it’s still on the ski as you’re about to snooz.
I know, man, it's crazy! They put something in it for the weeds, and the byproduct is the stunning color... Love getting footage there, looks like you're abroad, lol. Thanks for watching, dude!
I need to find an opportunity to get on a spark. Miss my old XP's and would love to see how they compare myself. Also want to do some buoy courses. I'd like my chances against that RXT on a tight course like you have available at that lake. Good video per usual.
Definitely, mate, the Spark is a great ski (the Trixx) and for sure worth having a go to recapture some (not all) of the XP ethos... It's a lot of fun around a tight course, and a real test following an RXT/RXP. I only managed 1 or 2 passes; the Spark needs 5-7 mph more to consistently beat the RXT, as on the joker laps, the RXT gaps the Spark, and then you’re spending the next 3-4 laps closing the gap again. Thanks for watching, dude.
@classicjetskis I've had a few chances at a spark, but the folks that I've come across haven't seemed trustworthy enough to reciprocate with mine. I think that tight course is the one way I could take a contemporary RXT in a race with the GTR. Opportunities will arise, I'm sure. The spark was what I initially intended on purchasing, but after all the research I did, the GTR fit the bill better for my needs. A spark or one of Yamaha's offerings may have to come next on the trailer for that OG vibe that the GTR does OK at emulating but doesn't quite reach.
Joe... I use a short handlebar clamp for my 360... It works well. Got strap mount, a harness and a helmet mount for the go pro, I'll use them both next time and try my new gopro mounts. Also just gotmy first laptop so learning how to use everything at one time is my old dog new trick mission.
Nice, man! Can you send me the handlebar clamp? I have a clamp, but it's a bit weak, in my opinion. Let me know what you use. Thanks for watching, dude!
I did the same thing on my standup. Got on it with my good glasses on and lost them when I fell. It sucks! Not sure what I was thinking lol. Cheap glasses with a strap for me haha or helmet and tinted goggles
Exactly that, mate! "What was I thinking?" wearing over £100 glasses. I think I was just super excited that the guy said I could have a go on the stand-up and the new Spark, and I forgot. Luckily, I’ve been bought another pair, and this time I have the matching strap, so hopefully, I won’t lose any more! You learn the hard way sometimes. Thanks for watching!
I've got the HERO13 black and the 360 x4 8k.... Not a scooby doo how to use them though😂 I can pilot my ski, that will do me. Any tips welcome guys, knuckle dragging dinosaur here. 😂
Nice man, so we are only using the HERO 8, and to be honest, I'm fed up with them due to water spots... Not sure if the newer ones are better; let me know how yours does... Apparently, they have added a new hydrophobic coating to help with water repellency on the newer models... but the other issue is that GOPROs love to crash. I've only used the X3 once this week when I hired it just to get an idea if I liked it, and... we loved it. It seemed to have better battery life and gives you 4K (2K per side) 360 footage, which can be reframed if you get a water spot. It looks way more dynamic, so we have since bought the X4 like you, as that is true 4K on each side (8K total, but don't be fooled-it's not true 8K). We haven’t used it yet as we've been sorting out mounts, etc., as we had a few issues with the pole falling off and bending at speed. But overall, I think we will use X4s more moving forward. If you have any other questions, drop me a line on FB or Insta, as I can voice note you back faster. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for bringing summer back, what a great video. 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love that front hitch option for the ATV! Meggs and you are really good at filming, editing and graphic design along with the obvious. Good work!

@@classicjetskis as they say …do you ever see a unhappy person a JetSki !!!! Memories for life mate. 💪🏻
Man I thought u was crazy for feeling like I was still riding when I finally went to bed 😂😂

@@TBird89 yeah typo sorry I meant to say “I” haha but yeah that’s what I mean
Im speachless about the color of the Water its amazing it looks like listerine blue or blue coolant
