I gotta Sea Doo GTX Supercharged. Love it for family stuff, pulling tubes and etc. Runs about 67 MPH thing flies. For smaller skis tho and doing tricks and having fun nothing beats the older 2 strokes IMO. I would rather have a 1995-1999 Sea Doo XP any day of the week over the new ones. Nothing beats a x4 hull.

[@alecaagaard]

The big skis work, and when you give them a job like towing the family they do it well unlike these sparks. The x4 hulls were very good, but honestly, as much as I like to work on and tinker with my toys, I absolutely do not want an old two stroke to be my every weekend ride. I want something I change oil on once a year and fill up with fuel before I ride. I own plenty of old two stroke stuff to know that they can be plenty reliable, but adding one of those to my fleet is not easy being those machines are approaching 30+ years of abuse. These sparks are the best news ski you can buy if you want to play on the water, and not stand up.

Nice video. Just picked one up! Definitely try the reverse donuts next time!

[@alecaagaard]

Thanks for watching! Will have to try those out. Sounds fun! Have you rode yours yet?

[@Toddymc-zi6ks]

Picking up my 24 next weekend. Waters still chilly up here in northern wi lol

[@alecaagaard]

I would normally say "you guys don't still have ice?" but i'm not sure if you ever had ice this season. LOL

[@Tikijoe101]

I get my 2024 2up Trixx tomorrow. Can't wait. I'll be looking for how to work the settings and controls videos. Btw never been on a jetski before.

[@alecaagaard]

You are going to love your new machine! Learning to ride a spark is very exponential. Doesn't take much to get a hang of it.

[@shawnomack45]

You can easily upgrade the ecm and it will do 55 60. I did it. I sent it out to a guy in Canada this was like 4 years ago but I bet he still dose it

[@alecaagaard]

My green 19 in the video has a 120 tune and doesnt get anywhere near 55 let alone 60. You must have some special sauce.

[@dustinmcfarlane5909]

Just got mine. Do you think full throttle is okay during break in as long as it’s not wide open for more than a minute straight? I did a few top speed runs and was a bit hard on it first time out. Hard not to be haha

[@alecaagaard]

Full throttle is ok, but id keep it minimal until its out of break in. I dont like to hold them wide open for more than 15-20 seconds. Its good to ride them how you normally would, but go easy on the throttle until you reach that 5-10 hour mark.

[@hunterkeem9173]

Went to take my yellow tab off and the hole broke. Cracked the little piece on top of the nozzle. 😢

[@alecaagaard]

Oh no! The good thing is that's not super important. It should be able to get warrantied, shouldn't hold you back from riding though.

[@totallynotryan9127]

so this was all the breakin peirod of the jetski?

[@alecaagaard]

yes, all during break in.

[@VladOnEarth]

I wanted to design mats for it and knee pads, but cant get my hands on that yet. Not a very popular model, despite me having 8000 members in my spark group, only couple of guys with 2024 sparks for now. Other mats are mostly crappy and expensive, I wouldn't even bother, the extent of crappiness of market mats is just crazy. There are also OEM mats for this model available now, if you want to get that, its expensive as well, and probably as basic as others.

[@alecaagaard]

It's a stiff market, a lot of people who are locked into skis from COVID pricing and can't get what they think they are worth. Dealers still aren't coming down as much as we would like, but have a bunch of inventory. Back in the good ole days a set of mats from hydro was $90 for a two up. They weren't amazing by any means, but that's ok because it was cheap. Now not so much. I think I'll try seadek next.

[@CorbinFrancisco]

I wanna get a seadoo but idk what to get and I don’t wanna spend 12 grand

[@alecaagaard]

You could look into a used machine. If you are interested in sparks, getting a 2017 or newer would be a good machine. Cost about 6-8k depending on condition and hours.

[@chucksullens3974]

Great honest video. Man I'm up in Northern Idaho on Pend Oreille, your water looks yellow. I've never seen that. What is it?

[@tufti]

Its actually a fish species producing fish and eggs, thats why its yellow!

[@77rockcity]

Great chat and overview. I'm needing to see the Vapor Blue/Neon Yellow in person.

[@alecaagaard]

Thanks for watching. I haven't seen that color in person yet either, but to me it looks like a very light washed out purple and faint yellow. Not my personal preference, but I'm sure it will appeal to some!

[@codypro3255]

Badass been waiting for a video like this. Gotta figure 24 out too the do reverse donuts too

[@alecaagaard]

I appreciate comments like this. The donuts didn't even cross my mind. I'll have to try those next time.

[@bsg137]

What is this reverse donuts ive been hearing about?

[@alecaagaard]

Haven't tried those yet. Next video.

[@zacharycampbell06]

@@alecaagaard I've been dying to get onto one of these new 2024 Trixx just to try the reverse donuts. I've done reverse donuts on the old Trixx but I've read that the redesign makes them a whole lot more fun. Right now our family has two 300's but I eventually want my own Trixx. Here's me doing reverse donuts on our RXTX300: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fIvJfpiva7GggM0 Can't wait to try it with REAL Trixx mode👍

[@alecaagaard]

@@zacharycampbell06 That video is badass, i'm definitely going to have to try that next time i'm out. :) If you like your 300 you will love a trixx. In my opinion its good to have one of each. If you want to go fast; ride the 300. For continuous play with ease, the trixx is the best tool for the job.

[@VladOnEarth]

You dont need to limit VTS with plastic limiter like that, this is exactly what you said - steering limiter, it limits steering angle.

[@khalyaqout2670]

So your saying that i should remove the plastic limiter or keep it on?

[@VladOnEarth]

@khalyaqout2670 id remove that right away, you will be able to steer to higher limits and do 360s and donuts easier.

[@adamsanchez1410]

Great video! On the glove box storage, is there enough room for a small rope to tie up with? And maybe a bottle of water? Mostly the rope though.

[@alecaagaard]

Thanks for watching the video. Good question, There's definitely room for a rope, but probably not a water bottle as well. You could look into a hydration pack, either as a thin back pack or a waist pack.

[@adamsanchez1410]

Thanks!

[@jetrider3645]

Show the screen the Fuel autonomy distance and time to empty???

[@alecaagaard]

I posted an overview video two weeks ago, check it out 😁

[@Drillorz]

My god this guy has the immaculate Wisconsin accent

[@alecaagaard]

I have an accent? 🤪 Where you from?

[@simonfafard5436]

You should try backward donuts as Seadoo advertised

[@alecaagaard]

Next viddy 🤪👍

[@justinconard3290]

I’ve got a 2018 trixx 2 up have u had any problems with the check engine coming on the screen then the ski losses power

[@alecaagaard]

I have not. What do you have for hours, is it a salt ridden ski, and when was the last time you did a set of spark plugs?

[@justinconard3290]

@@alecaagaard it has 53 hours on it. I’ve done the spark plugs at 50 hours done the oil change at 50 hours checked all of my hoses impellers and everything and it’s a lake freshwater JetSki. I just wondered if anybody else has the same issue with the sparks trixx I love the jet ski I can do a tone of tricks with it but it looses power when check engine comes on and when it go off the power comes back but the ski never shuts off idles like a new should I’m just confused

[@alecaagaard]

@@justinconard3290 Your easiest bet is to find someone, or a dealer with a buds connection and see if the machine is storing the check engine code. You can also purchase the buds interface yourself if you don't have a local dealer. There's a thousand combinations of things that could be causing it, like a bad temp sensor, or ground, loose connection or something i'm not thinking of.

[@justinconard3290]

@@alecaagaard I seen in ur video that u had an OBD box that reads codes if u don’t mind me asking were did u get it from and how much is the box just wondering I won’t to see if I can fix it myself before pay a dealer $200 to put it on the computer that’s what they charge up here

[@alecaagaard]

@@justinconard3290 i am not sure what you are referring to. I dont have any code readers for the jet skis. Only thing i have is HP tuners for my trucks. You can tune the skis with HP tuners but im not sure if you can read codes with it. you can on the trucks, so i would assume so, but i have yet to need to do it.
