I've taken a few hard hits flying off of jetskis, you're an idiot if you get on one without of life jacket. I've even had the lanyard break in half and the ski keep on idling, luckily it turned and started heading back towards me so I could grab it.

Life jacket is a must on a jetski...
With that said, do people not understand you can just lay on your back and normally float? Even my big ass can float."No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government"
-- Thomas Jefferson, 1 Thomas Jefferson Papers, 334

This actually happened to me several years ago at a friends b day on the lake. I was riding a jet ski with a very large girl and she had no life jacket on. The ski rolled and of course she nearly pulled me under by clinging on to me. Took about 10 minutes for the group to notice what was going on and come pick us up. Longest ten minutes of my life with the heffer clawing and scratching at me...1971 Ford Torino - Time to go bigger and better.

I've seen more than 20 people KO'd by skis. Unconscious, you die without a jacket. In Nanus's case, that would improve the gene pool, if he had not already procreated.
A 16 month old can be taught to swim, but more importantly, taught how to keep from drowning.

I believe it's actually illegal to be on one without a vest.Originally posted by JC316 View PostI hate life jackets with a passion. Of course, I'm a very strong swimmer. If you aren't a good swimmer though, have the fucking vest on.
