530lbs and 110hp ain’t bad. The 90’s machines that everyone loves were 60-80hp and we’re in the ~400lb range. Keep in mind full size pwc’s are nearly 1000lbs. For someone who wants a toy and doesn’t want to mess with carbs or 2t oil this looks like an awesome boat
Strange? I had two Spark Trixx 2019, and rang up 330 hours on one, 310 on the other... wanted newer ones, and bought the new 2024 trixx, and sold my 2019's for half of what my new 2024's cost... already have 30 hours on each. What better reliability is there than that? I'm lost.

Nice review. Curious to see a GPS top speed on that thing, but overall enjoy your content and easy going, fun attitude in these videos! People like you grow the sport!
It’ll actually be very easy like the sparks you can tell the top of the hull is designed to be removed to service the engine, it takes about 30 minutes to remove the top half
I have to say great review. I love the video. In my opinion, this is not a spark killer. Haven't ridden the jet blaster, but I get 52 mph on a 2023 spark 3up, and I weigh 245 pounds. Given a new impeller and optimal trim. Spark has a better price point as well .. gotta say I love my spark a lot. It's very modular too. Trix 90hp tune helps as well.
110hp and 530lbs is pretty close to 90’s numbers. Not a bad offering. Pretty excited to see the spark finally getting some competition. Side note: love that they kept glass where it counts and plastic up top. Smart move
Bro really? The spark is just a playful smaller unit like the old xp for example. Its just a class of ski. Why other manufactures have not capitalized is insane but not really. Allow me to explain. Car manufactuers could not make enough trucks and suv huge profit. Same with jet skis. There selling the bigger boats and making bigger money lol. Now the economy is done it make sense for yamaha to offer a fun budget unit. There is not any real major innovation on the spark or trixx. Just a trim that adjust more than a standard trim on the trixx lol.
Doesn’t even come close to the same wheelies or slides as the spark trixx but am glad to finally see Yamaha build something close. Give it a few yrs they might make the pump angles better and make it more playful then make it faster and they’ll have a hell of a unit.
It's even worse than that. Yamaha has patented this and they call it a visibility spout. It takes some of the pressurized water that comes out the impeller and diverts it through a hose to shoot straight up into the air. This actually takes a very miniscule, but still, it takes a small amount of thrust away from the jet pump. It's the stupidest thing.
Great review man!!! Does the base 2up still have the same drive train and top speed? I don't believe in luxury bs on a ski or power sports for that matter. It needs to be fast and nimble and I like them bare bones. I will use my boat for luxury lol.
I have a 2021 spark trix full bolt on 120hp propeller , wear ring, ribon delete , free floc exhaust , cold air intake , should I trade it in for one of these?
Someone at Yamaha should try to fill these things up on the water. It’s amazing how stupid the filler cap is positioned on every waverunner for years now.
Hey standup rider here as well! Yea that is an interesting question! I wonder why they haven't. Maybe they couldn't take the hard impacts that are inevitable with the big air type crowd like myself? Although, it's not like you can jump either of the 4 stroke stand ups very well. Interesting thought!
@@AustinF12trixx’s are made to be thrown around. people buy them thinking they’re a cheap version of a normal ski, hop on them, feel how unstable they are and sell them straight away. it’s the equivalent of a riding big bmw touring bike, then buying a 125cc pitbike and thinking they’re gonna ride the same.
@tylerstark2737 you're thinking of the Wave Blaster which was a 90s Yamaha two stroke ski. The Jet Blaster came out in 2022. Seadoo came out with the Spark in 2014 with the cheaper plastic parts so the could lower the price. The Trixx is the one with adjustable trim and blocks for your feet so you can do wheelies on it. Yamaha copied the adjustable trim and blocks for your feet in 2022. And now for 2025 they are copying the cheaper plastic parts. The Wave Blaster 1 was from 93 to 96. The Wave Blaster 2 was 96 to 97.
Been a Yamaha motor sports fan and owner forever including, Waverunners but they got fat and lazy while SeaDoo has surpassed them in innovation and quality.
I had spark . Sold it because I was using it in salt water . Man, did it start to rust and eat the aluminum heads . Yamaha seems to hold up better in salt water . I'm wondering if this is the same with the blaster.
Seadoo Spark has a closed loop cooling system. The Jetblaster sucks in water from wherever you are riding and passes that throughout the engine for cooling. So, you would have seawater running directly through the insides of your Jetblaster engine.
I like the improvements, but they tried too hard to look like a bigger Spark. And this obsession with wheelies - does it really matter if you can pull a wheelie? It is great that Yamaha innovated and improved on the existing JetBlaster though, especially during the current depressed global economic conditions. My big bugbear with the JB and EXR is the lack of footwell drains. I'm not sure if they have addressed it with these models...
Great Review but hate it in comparison to the FX Cruiser Models. Yamaha needs to do a better Job with their Paint Colors I miss the black hull with Red and white look or Black hull with Blues the Paint on Yamaha itself they need to fix it from chipping so easily by adding maybe Gel coat or something.
I cringe when I see people with their Lanyard dangling and not connected to them when the engine is running.. yeah only in idle and other boats around filming if anything happens but I’d like to see you promote safety on the water ..
@@Threefiddyz I guess that’s a compliment. Sea-Doo is killing it with the Spark and Yamaha had to copy their formula. At the end of the day competition is good. Keeps them on their toes.
@@Nitro187 so you think that Ford just decided to completely bring back the Bronco just because? Ooooookkk.. it’s a known fact that they did their research and spoke with wrangler owners asking what they would like to change. Also the Wrangler did not come out in 1986. Try mass production in 1945. How old are you? 20? Lol
Glad I have a '23 Jet Blaster. Some nice upgrades for '25, with more trim angle, upgraded screen, wake/cruise mode. But I simply can't wrap my head around that plastic deck it looks like a cheap toy. If you're going to copy the cheapest ski, you better price the unit as such, which they haven't. Also seems to be slower now, I easily get 56mph(90km), I hope someone else can show better speeds with the '25 JB Pro.
@@speedball10169 I think the 2022-24 Jet Blaster was able to make it a good balance between looking like a machine while having playful performance, which is what I'd want. I get they were going for something that looks playful and it does. But it also looks very cheap, yet isn't. So they need to lower the price to actually compete with the Spark.
Why such a price difference between all the yamaha blaster models and the BRP spark models??? I'd think if they're trying to compete, they'd basically price match within a few hundred bucks with the spark models.
ok just to get it out there, 5 figures for an economy ski is not economy.... i thought PWC manufactures learned their lessons of why PWC sales dipped and honda just left the game. MANY people just want to buy a cheap semi disposable PWC to ride around a few times a summer.. They don't want a couch with automatic brakes no give gas, go jump waves or wakes do spin pull a tube , sip gas, there you go. "oh but the data shows people want that" probably because your not even in the ballpark of the 5,000 most people are willing to pay for one. You see sparks EVERYWHERE at the beach wave jumping almost never see a Yamaha there anymore. We need CHEAP jet skis, it can be done 9,999 is not even trying.
Was disappointed seeing this redesign as i just bought a 2024 jetblaster. Thought i bought too soon. But Dont know that i see any tangible differences though except the cheaper top deck and increased price. And the better water wheelies but oh well. Same engine. Virtually same weight. I think im happy with my purchase particularly with a fiberglass top deck
I'm with you, glad I have a '23 Jet Blaster. The upgraded screen and Cruise/Wake function would be nice feature on ours but I can't get over that plastic deck it looks like a cheap toy.
So same as spark. Same speed. Smh. Spark cheaper. I'll go with spark. If the speed was 60 or 70 I'd but this but yall failed. Spark still beating jet blaster smh. Had hopes for this to be faster.
@Peter-976 pete, pal, I know this might be tough but you said this new wave blaster would be terrible in chop. It's clearly going for the same market, and has a similar design. If the design is the same and the spark is already fun in chop ipso facto this should be fun in chop. Not terribly hard to sus out my guy.
All I need is bottom end power and a lot of trim on a light machine with some sense of dependability. My only true enjoyment in life is jumping waves . The higher I go the farther, Im away from my wife .
I watch your show alot but you need to start hounding these manafactures when the real power is coming and keeping the same size of unit. I have a turbo spark making 170hp which is perfect. I would pay more for a machine with more HP. Where is the SPARKX model??? Please ask!!!
its coming seadoo has hinted at it. why do you think the new spark top deck is wider? spark x/ xp is prob 2026. 2 years of new top deck then the ho model just like performance versions of cars.
Why would you buy a spark if you want real power? Makes no sense. Be like buying a Harley and then complaining that it won't keep up with your friends liter sport bikes and needs to be made more powerful.
There is just something off about it, something that I just can't quite figure out what, that's wrong with this Jetblaster. I just can't get excited about it. Im in a market for a brand new rec-lite and this Jetblaster, there ia just something off about it and I can't get excited for it. And then there isnthat price, WTF where they thinking whwn they made it $16,000 ?!!
I just alwaya think yamaha could do better ...make it do 65 and itd be perfect. - i almost bought the 2023 jetblaster black n green bcuz it looked good. But found a 2001 gp1200R with 50 hours. Goes 70+mph...for under $5k
if you want full speed bring the trim up to maximum when the trim is up to maximum it means less water resistance meaning you can achieve greater speeds.
@@RoadTripMan4U correct actually when your trim is set to the maximum (up fully) your jet ski is more out of the water literally less water resistance enabling you to reach higher top speeds.
@@poke_man9854 I'm not trying to be rude but you don't understand the hydrodynamics of planing. I will only hit 51-52 on my 24 jet blaster trimmed up. 55-56 trimmed down. Water resistance isn't just the portion of the hull touching the water. It's the waters interaction with the hull which is plowing more when trimmed up
What was wrong with the EX line? One of the BEST things about Yamaha was the hull integrity..... This is literally their version of sea doo spark. Even has that stupid through body hole. Really not sure on this one......
@@nickgerula No issues with my hull. Ram into a sharp edged rock and maybe you could damage it but same as a fiberglass hull too. I think thats exaggerated about the spark by people.
Whoever comes up with and then gives the thumbs up on the coloration decisions at Yamaha needs to be FIRED!!!!!!!! I'm sure girls will think they're pretty, but being they're 5% of the buying market, I'd think the powers that be, would chose colors more appealing to the non homosexual.
I mean if you’re looking for reliability at a better price point Yamaha is the go too. Seadoo is kind of a joke in my opinion just like all BRP products over priced plastic scrap.
Well taken care of Sparks seem to be very relaible. Lots of people abuse them and then complain on the internet. 180 hours so far on my Trix not a single issue,
$7k for the jetblaster + $100k for kidney transplant? Are you crazy, those seats looks like the ones in the Trek olympic bycicles. Looks like a lot of pain. Storage sucks, you guys never listen to the spark users?
They will no doubt release extra storage options like they did with the EX/EXR/pre-2025 JetBlaster. At least it gives people the option rather than having them pay for it at time of sale.
JetBlaster US Pricing:
$7,999 to start
$8,999 Deluxe 2-Up
$9,999 Deluxe 3-Up
$11,199 Pro 2-Up
$11,799 Pro 3-Up
$11,799 Limited 3-Up
I paid less in 2014 for a VX Deluxe. These prices are way out of line

Everyone complaining about comfort and hitting chop has never been on a stand up lol.
My superjet is literally more fun in the chop than a spark
i love my superjet in the chop but i get what you mean lol
This ski is not to handle chop, is to do tricks. Try an fx if they want some comfort
Have you rode a hull that actually handles chop

So same as spark. Same speed. Smh. Spark cheaper. I'll go with spark. If the speed was 60 or 70 I'd but this but yall failed. Spark still beating jet blaster smh. Had hopes for this to be faster.
Nearly 100lbs heavier too.
The difference is this will be on the water in 10 years running like a top. The Spark will be in the scrap yard
@@Judson1392the sparks last a really long time. I’ve had more issues with Yamaha.
@@hyperflitefpv6748I'm still a Sea-Doo fan but around me they are in for repairs way more often than the Yamahas.
@@hyperflitefpv6748lmaooo not where I go jumpin..
wow, this is strange Canadian channel viewing a Japanese jet ski and saying that it will kill the Canadian jet ski got it 😂😂😂
Did Yamaha turbocharged the new 1.9L motor for 2025 ?
Yamaha doesn't do turbocharged skis, only supercharged (SVHO).
they did not
You never want to take 3 people on this thing nor the spark.
If there were a slight chop on that lake you would not be able to board that ski at all. Practically tipping over in calm water.
It’ll be fine unless you’re built like the reviewer
@@IHadToMakeThisAccountfor one, maybe. Two on the two up would be impossible in a chop and practically impossible in calm water.
Are you kidding me? The spark is super fun in chop!
@badm0t0rf1ng3r did you even watch the video? This is a review of the Yamaha, not the Spark.
@Peter-976 pete, pal, I know this might be tough but you said this new wave blaster would be terrible in chop. It's clearly going for the same market, and has a similar design. If the design is the same and the spark is already fun in chop ipso facto this should be fun in chop. Not terribly hard to sus out my guy.
fiberglass bottom...will hurt when you are beaching it! Ill keep my 16 spark any day over this "TEMU trixx"
Set to Kph instead of mph.
All I need is bottom end power and a lot of trim on a light machine with some sense of dependability. My only true enjoyment in life is jumping waves . The higher I go the farther, Im away from my wife .
Spark is better. Has way more storage and accessories also
I watch your show alot but you need to start hounding these manafactures when the real power is coming and keeping the same size of unit. I have a turbo spark making 170hp which is perfect. I would pay more for a machine with more HP. Where is the SPARKX model??? Please ask!!!
its coming seadoo has hinted at it. why do you think the new spark top deck is wider? spark x/ xp is prob 2026. 2 years of new top deck then the ho model just like performance versions of cars.
It's not coming this year. Maybe in a few years. If you want a machine with more hp then buy a rxp 325.
Why would you buy a spark if you want real power? Makes no sense. Be like buying a Harley and then complaining that it won't keep up with your friends liter sport bikes and needs to be made more powerful.
@gunnerneikoify why would you buy a jet blaster if you want real power? The difference in horsepower is minimal.
@@speedball10169 I would say 20hp is minimal.
What’s up with that stupid tray under the seat. That seems cheap as f and looks like it’ll leak like crazy.
There is just something off about it, something that I just can't quite figure out what, that's wrong with this Jetblaster. I just can't get excited about it. Im in a market for a brand new rec-lite and this Jetblaster, there ia just something off about it and I can't get excited for it. And then there isnthat price, WTF where they thinking whwn they made it $16,000 ?!!
and it floats.
I just alwaya think yamaha could do better ...make it do 65 and itd be perfect. - i almost bought the 2023 jetblaster black n green bcuz it looked good. But found a 2001 gp1200R with 50 hours. Goes 70+mph...for under $5k
Better engine not 2 stroke junk you can actually see the engine without tearing the deck off I’d say this got the spark beat to hell already
if you want full speed bring the trim up to maximum when the trim is up to maximum it means less water resistance meaning you can achieve greater speeds.
wrong
@@RoadTripMan4U correct actually when your trim is set to the maximum (up fully) your jet ski is more out of the water literally less water resistance enabling you to reach higher top speeds.
@@poke_man9854... No
@@Freydale yes
@@poke_man9854 I'm not trying to be rude but you don't understand the hydrodynamics of planing. I will only hit 51-52 on my 24 jet blaster trimmed up. 55-56 trimmed down. Water resistance isn't just the portion of the hull touching the water. It's the waters interaction with the hull which is plowing more when trimmed up
Nice! Buy a trixx
What was wrong with the EX line? One of the BEST things about Yamaha was the hull integrity..... This is literally their version of sea doo spark. Even has that stupid through body hole. Really not sure on this one......
I have a Trixx. Tried an EX this summer. Boring. Much more playful and fun than the EX.
@@thisisrob8750 oh no question the size is much more in favor for fun with the spark, but what about the quality of the plastics and longevity?
@@nickgerula No issues with my hull. Ram into a sharp edged rock and maybe you could damage it but same as a fiberglass hull too. I think thats exaggerated about the spark by people.
@@nickgerula Yamaha products I find to be well built and so reliable though
Looks like a 1995 jetblaster
Yamaha needs to give up on a rival for the spark im a yamaha guy and the spark is just better
It’s really not
@@realablesafe9337 Its the same basically as these Yamis but cheaper.
Just a spark and spark trixx but Yamaha and more expensive
Whoever comes up with and then gives the thumbs up on the coloration decisions at Yamaha needs to be FIRED!!!!!!!! I'm sure girls will think they're pretty, but being they're 5% of the buying market, I'd think the powers that be, would chose colors more appealing to the non homosexual.
Very Easter like colors on the pro. So feminine looking. Pass for that alone
I mean if you’re looking for reliability at a better price point Yamaha is the go too. Seadoo is kind of a joke in my opinion just like all BRP products over priced plastic scrap.
Well taken care of Sparks seem to be very relaible. Lots of people abuse them and then complain on the internet. 180 hours so far on my Trix not a single issue,
The color schemes look so ugly. The black and red spark was dope. Seadoo has better colors overall.
$7k for the jetblaster + $100k for kidney transplant? Are you crazy, those seats looks like the ones in the Trek olympic bycicles. Looks like a lot of pain. Storage sucks, you guys never listen to the spark users?
They will no doubt release extra storage options like they did with the EX/EXR/pre-2025 JetBlaster. At least it gives people the option rather than having them pay for it at time of sale.
It’s for hooning. Comfort is for the luxury skis
On my '23 JB I've used the front hull storage zero times.
Be man. Ride a stand up with no seat and no storage.
Yamaha is like a Toyota with Lexus badges
