    WB 1 Backflip

    Thinking about attempting a back flip on my blaster, wanted to know the ease of doing so and wanted to know the proper form people are using. Thanks

    Not there myself but when the waves get big here it does not seem too impossible!
    Good luck

      I never tried, but here's a video.

      Multiple South African Free Ride Jet Ski champion performs world's first Backflips on a sit down jetski in a wave pool - including no handed backflips.

          Plan on breaking fiberglass somewhere along the way to learning this trick. The stock blaster hood is way weak and pancakes are brutal on it. The good news is if you stayed glued to your ski and land in deep enough water there is little chance you will get hurt. So you have that going for you...

                        You probably get more of a response over on the X about stuff like that. We don't have huge ballz to do backies.

                            I will check it out, what kind of foam are you using? I took apart the ski over the weekend and planning on doing some hull mods and repaint so I would like to foam as well. Thanks for all your help.

                              what blaster doesn't have foam? blasters float very well with stock foam.
