Life is not measured by the numbers of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breaths away ! Keep Enjoying life !

Absolutely!

It was truly dreamlike in some spots

[@Itsdazbarton15]

So… I’m in Melbourne Australia and after coming across your channel 2 things have happened. First is, I bought a brand new fish pro trophy 2 weeks ago, and now after watching this, lake Powell is so on my bucket list! Wow! What a place for a pwc. Love you videos man! Cheers!

[@AdamSwords]

Thanks for watching Daz, I’m glad I’ve been able to show you the light! Lake Powell is epic, you should definitely do it. Fly to vegas, rent a car and go see Bob out there.

[@brandonhillgoth699]

21:15 oh my god what an absolute view 😍😍😍

[@keithlivingston6973]

Lake Powell is super low really sad but glad you got to see it! Utah is a amazing state so happy to live here

[@AdamSwords]

It’s beautiful

[@XF_Chaos]

You mentioning coming up to Canada actually startled me, cause where I live looks exactly like what you described at this time of year, and I think you'd have a blast up here on Pitt Lake. That aside, Merry Christmas, and thanks for the gift of this upload!

[@AdamSwords]

Merry Christmas!

[@4Runner4Life]

Thanks for all the inspiring videos! I just picked up a brand new Explorer. Loving it!

[@dlekander]

Come to South Dakota where you can put that Ski-Doo jacket to the test. Its a heat wave today. We hit 30 degrees F today! Was -42. Enjoy the videos. Keep'em coming!

[@AdamSwords]

Yikes!

[@cbboiii1100]

I would love to travel by jetski. I just bought 2 rxtx 300s but never left upstate NY on a jetski. I think you have given me the idea to travel the US and ski all over the country

[@gareth36]

That looked like a cracking bit of play time. What awesome scenery. Bang on about finding chill and recharge time regardless of how you do it,just make sure you do.

[@AdamSwords]

:)

[@Vanya80151]

I've done lake Powell end to end a few times long time ago. There used to be two other marinas on the lake, so no fuel stops were needed.

[@AdamSwords]

I know, we saw some of the ones that were out of the water. Crazy how low it was

[@AlexanderTheGrateful]

Adam that look absolutely amazing, I can’t wait to visit these places in person, I’ve been trying to convince the missus to go to the states for years, Next summer I’m flying there with or without her 😂😅

Do it!!

What a great trip, Adam looking forward to your next one.

Such an epic trip! We loved re-living it through your lens. Thanks for sharing the adventure with us and let's do it again some time!

[@AdamSwords]

Great meeting you guys. Come out to Catalina soon!

[@Seektruth-59]

The change to rough water came from the topography around you, most likely an opening to the west.

[@AdamSwords]

yup!

[@guipaes100]

Wow!! That was such a ride!! I am used to tropical rides down in Brazil and I was so stoked watching this video!! What a trip… next time i am in Vegas will try to reach out to these guys to do the same!!

Lake Powell is my favorite place in the world. I’ve always wanted to do a winter trip. Was even thinking about a thanksgiving trip

[@AdamSwords]

You should!

[@williamfielding8302]

Another stunning adventure Adam. It is a shame to see just how far gone lake Powell is due to the drought in the western US. But it does seem to be holding up much better than Lake Mead in NV. Now for the first time in the years since I've followed you on KZbin I find myself questioning your sanity, Riding a Seadoo in 20 degree F Weather for the fun of it? It's been about 2 degrees F here in West Virginia for about a week and I can not get my dog to go outside to use the restroom and your playing on a lake like it's mid summer lol I will give you one thing you do find your everyday adventure. Stay safe Stay Warm and Stay Adam...

[@AdamSwords]

Haha yeah I’m a bit of a glutton for punishment I guess!

[@jamesdempsey8811]

Looked like fun ever thought about coming towards the East Coast with it

[@erik.lindberg89]

What a nice adventure! I have checked out the other videos you have done with the Explorer, it would be perfect for the kind of riding i do. Pretty expensive in Sweden though... I gotta ask what kind of shoes/boots did you wear on this trip? I still have to find the perfect compromise for those kind of temperatures, that is waterproof and still warm.

[@AdamSwords]

I was wearing waterproof snowmobile boots

Hey bud just found your channel and love it! Reminds me of when my idiot brothers took our 2 jet skis to Catalina from LB! Subscribed

[@AdamSwords]

Haha welcome!!

[@P-J-W-777]

May need to get an engine tune update on your ski if they are actually able to run a bit faster and more fuel efficient since yours is a prototype. Yours may have an older test tune on it. Either way a good tune will definitely improve your horsepower as well as the fuel efficiency.

[@bradbuss9753]

Great story-telling and production Adam! Just beautiful 😮

[@AdamSwords]

Unfortunately not :( Lost to the lake

[@michaelquirke1281]

Great video, very different place during the summer, 2 questions, is your ski a 170 HP and do you remember how many fuel miles you had remaining when you got back to wahweap.

[@Magajeep]

Did the window did any justice against the wind? I would like your honest opinion,because I’m looking for a jet ski in a couple of months.hope to hear from you soon. Thank you

[@AdamSwords]

It makes 100% improvement in the wind. If you’re sitting down it’s amazing

[@slcncr]

There truly are some stunning places in the USA. Lake Powell is definitely one of them. When Dan from "Whatsinside" lost his golden Apple watch that Casey Neistat made for him, he contacted "DALLMYD" ( Scuba Jake ) and he found it in that pond that is a bit separate from the main lake. And then, Zack from "JerryRigEverything" opened and cleaned it and it still works. All 3 made Videos about that and it beautifully shows the amazing Lake Powell, but in Summer.

[@AdamSwords]

I’ll have to check that out

[@mikehern775]

You should try Pyramid Lake in Northern Nevada. It’s not nearly as beautiful as Lake Powell but it IS pretty cool!!

[@AdamSwords]

I’ll have a look!

[@nijo6480]

That experience is epic 👍👍👍👍

[@johnmedaris1]

How does one get on such an amazing adventure? I'd buy a Sea Doo Explorer Pro just for that experience!!

Always wanted to hire one of those house boats with a jet ski etc and spend a long weekend on Lake Powell, but never got around to it while I was there..... looks like its lost a lot of water though...?🤙🖖🤘👌✌👍

How much fuel was in the tank in the end, what happened to the dry bag, did some of the guys found it or you payed for the folding chair? Were there any damages because of the ice?

Zero! Dry bag was lost :( no damage!

Hello, I see that you are an expert on sea-doos. First of all thank you for your videos, they are great. THANKS. I have a question, I'm planning to go down the Amazon river, I'm looking to buy the explorer pro 170, I have a question about consumption, I see that I have a 70 liter tank that I can add a can of 18 liters. But I would like to prepare this tripe that I will make in a year. Do you know the consumption per hour at a reduced speed, because I will be on the river? Thanks for your return. Fabrice. FYI, we're going around the world on a catamaran for 5 years, I'm going to Miami for a stopover to see some French friends. With pleasure we could meet and exchange on our respective channels!!!!

I’d say 80 miles to be safe, but 100 miles isn’t out of the question.

Do you wear a wetsuit when riding in these temps? If you go overboard how do you safeguard against hypothermia? How much time do you have in the water before you're in trouble? Just wondering.
