ONE STUPID MISTAKE RUINED EVERYTHING!

[@ANDRE_675]

Hey, Adam just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos and adventures. The views don't do your channel justice, you deserve a lot more. Last week I dislocated my shoulder while swimming, and was told I needed to recover for 2 months and potentially get surgery down the line. I'm not allowed to go to the gym or do any sport-related activities, this has taken a bit of a toll on me, mentally. So putting on this video helped me escape the pain and frustration for half an hour and it was awesome seeing you have fun, and continue doing this awesome content!

[@AdamSwords]

Hey dude I really appreciate you saying that. I’m biased but I agree! I think I put out solid content that I myself would enjoy watching and it’s tough sometimes to not get the views that I see some of the other junk on KZbin getting! But I get so much satisfaction from reading comments like yours and it makes it all worth while to know the people that are watching the episodes are enjoying them! Sorry to hear about your shoulder, I wish you a speedy recovery mate! Merry Christmas

[@tbrr982]

Wanted to say thank you for the great videos. I’m 75 and sold what I thought would have been my last sea doo 2 years ago - but after seeing your videos I have just purchased the same machine you have. We will have snow here for another 4 months so in the meantime I will be enjoying your travels.

[@AdamSwords]

That’s amazing! You’ll love the Explorer, such a great all round ski. Let me know how you like it once you get it on the water. Cheers :)

Rode from Moabi / Pirates Cove Marina to Havasu last month. You motivated me to drive out from San Diego to do the stretch south of the Hoover Dam (Cottonwood to Willow). You cant ride a PWC past Willow Beach at this time of year, but it was still a great ride. On the Moabi to Havasu run I launched when it was in the high 40's and got back when it was in the low 50's. Thanks for the video motivation... Catalina is next on my list.

[@AdamSwords]

That’s good to know, do you know what the dates are that you are allowed up there?

[@TheRedneckJarhead34429]

Apparently you can only go in the summer except for Sun/Mon. Here's what they sent me when I inquired only with the link: The only time that PWC's may travel North of Willow Beach towards Hoover Dam is Tuesday - Saturday [NOT Sunday or Monday] from the Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend (May) till Labor Day (September). NPS's website has all the legalize: Black Canyon National Water Trail - Lake Mead National Recreation Area (U.S. National Park Service) (nps.gov)

3:12 The luggage rack that you designed is really cool. Have you been able to run it with gear? And what if the sides angled back a little more coming back towards the rider. Lastly you should get a design patent and sell it to Sea Doo!

[@mashdatrashvideos2831]

You should start fishing, I do all these same adventures and once I added fishing it made it a bit more exciting, catch dinner, etc

[@AdamSwords]

If I ate fish I definitely would!

[@GorkyparkJoss]

Adam is vegan!😂

[@GorkyparkJoss]

Lovely episode Cheesecake!

[@dazzler5012]

Really enjoy your videos Adam thanks. Merry Christmas

[@AdamSwords]

Merry Christmas!

[@AlexRodri27]

It’s unfortunate for how things turned out for you, but I like to tell myself things happen for a reason. Also, you my friend have great taste in music! Great video Adam, already looking forward to the next one!

[@AdamSwords]

I appreciate that!

[@stefjuc]

Viewing from Switzerland and still can‘t believe that you are allowed to drive this thing almost everywhere! Enjoy your videos and keep up the good work!

[@highlandrab19]

why didnt you fill the tanks before you took the jerries off?

[@AdamSwords]

Because that would have been smart

Same to you!

[@jodyhodgson3397]

Hey Adam are you likely to have the front storage platform released and or available for others to buy?

[@rpkett]

Awesome trip! Havasu is a fun place! You have to get up to Tahoe this summer and bring the skis. You will NOT be disappointed! Just make sure to come in the summer lol

[@AdamSwords]

Yeah I really want to ride Tahoe!

[@ogimilosevic]

I just wanna bring you down so baaadlyyy 🎶 Keep up the good work mate.

[@AdamSwords]

Hah thank you!

[@louboxjelly3426]

Hey Adam! You should do like a litle video on how you clean your JetSki?

[@AdamSwords]

Good idea!

[@damianswegles2837]

😁Kool.... adventures that whole fuel thing! Suspenseful! Kept me on the edge of my seat! But had me laughing with the Will clips before you even left! 😂 God bless mate 🙏

[@AdamSwords]

Hahaha it was the first thing that came to mind

[@davidbanks6658]

I feel like I have just watched a 29 minuet Sea-doo commercial or a lake Havasu tourism commercial... Good video, loved the P.O.V. shots , with the glances at the fish finder. Looks like a fun.

[@AdamSwords]

lol just doing what I do where I like to do it.

[@MikeLetting]

Hey Adam, big fan ! Your footage out of the gopros always looks so good, do you throw any luts on it or colour grade it somehow? The flat profile is decent on these guys but can never make them look right like yours with that flair, lol Best !

[@AdamSwords]

I shoot flat then in post I add a decent amount of sharpening, contrast and saturation. Having bright conditions definitely helps a ton with GoPro. On grey days they don’t look half as good.

[@daymondmilam1373]

Great show .. question can the xplorer go in more shallow water than other models … I have an apex

[@AdamSwords]

Nope they’re all about the same

[@nickfoss2385]

You can definitely ride at night in lake havasu as long as you have the correct lighting on pwc I got out night fishing all the time on the boat out here

[@AdamSwords]

You can’t legally operate a PWC at night. Boats yes, PWC no.

[@jerbburleson1]

Enjoyed the video anyway. Sorry it did not go as planned but you still got a great trip. Keep up the great work.

[@AdamSwords]

Thanks 👍

[@canyonair]

Great video. Have you made it up to Iceberg Canyon and Pierce Ferry Rapid on the eastern side of Lake Mead? If not, that would be some good content.

[@AdamSwords]

That’s next on the hit list!

What is with all the empty docks? Off season? quiet during the week?

[@AdamSwords]

Yup. Winter and week day!

Adam, come down to Crab Island and hit me up. Still need to do an Orlando - Nassau run! Also, wtf never been this early.

Don't worry Adam this happens to all of us. Anyways, this was a great video on the water that you put out for us and I enjoyed it. Thanks

Man I love your videos I seriously want to buy a sea doo I’m really into adventures like these I do some river kayak camping trips but sea doos look so damn fun

[@vickenbastajian2369]

Adam its Christmas take it easy !!$$

[@MarkTisdelJr]

Could be worse!! At least we all live and learn lol I don’t even have a place to store extra fuel on vintage ski’s so there’s that.

[@AdamSwords]

True!

[@joyceedwards6112]

As far as problems go it wasn't major, just a pain in the butt. Still a beautiful evening. You do stay safe, now you know, don't depend on others for fuel.👍

[@AdamSwords]

I mean I was planning on camping so it kinda ruined my whole day!

[@Easton-vl7do]

Also are you going to do more trips across the ocean? Please do it 😊

[@AdamSwords]

Yup :)

[@dadcontent]

Winter rides are the best 👌 not in wet gear though 😂 good job on promoting safety

It was so chilly that morning in the wet gear lol

[@AdamSwords]

I sold most of my luxury watches actually. Been rocking the Garmin Tactix 7 Pro Ballistics!

[@Easton-vl7do]

Oh no ! 😥

No better example 😅😅

@@AdamSwords hope it works out better next time. As that area looks amazing buddy

[@robertdepaulis5188]

Adam just a curious question on the rack you made . Hopefully it doesn’t happen. What would happen if you had a sudden stop and you face planted the wind screen ? Love the rack though

[@AdamSwords]

The screen folds forward

[@AdamSwords]

[@brianpreston3509]

You know better, always have extra fuel on board. Second, expect the unexpected and plan for it. Keep an extra set of clothes in case you get wet or dirty. Ride safe! Come up to the Bay Area sometime.

[@AdamSwords]

[@i12C.]

Stuff happens. You adapt and move on. Just like in the book 'Who Moved My Cheese'. (Check it out if you haven't read it. Only 94 pages. Easy read.) I watch your vids not only because of the adventure, but because of your personality. So bro, when sheet goes sideways, I'm still here watching.

o gosh i guess its best to always carry spare fuel cans. you must go back to this place cheers

[@AdamSwords]

Yup!

[@williamfielding8302]

Adam, There is nobody that drives anything gas or electric that hasn't "ran out of gas" If they claim it's never happened to them they are lying . I once ran out of gas on a freaking moped between Imperial beach and Coranado (North Island NAS) talk about embarrassing.

[@AdamSwords]

Haha I ran out on a KTM 525 EXC riding from LA to Pismo beach. Had to lean the thing all the way over to tip a tiny bit of fuel from one side of the tank to the other to get me 2 miles to the next gas station.

[@williamfielding8302]

@@AdamSwords I still got you beat I think I ran out of gas on that damn Moped in front of a Multi-Million dollar housing development and not one of those rich fools would help. And I installed most of the AV systems in their houses. A man by the name of Bob Barker (you may have heard of him think daytime tv and animal rights) was one of the first homes we did.

Yea and then go and leave it on the truck hahahaha good to have it tho

I was kicking myself lol

[@jerryburleson8604]

Just hate being made to feel like a dumbass. But you can't always see every obstacle and road block. My latest snafu was trying to drill a hole in concrete. I encountered a rock. I knew beforehand that I might need a special bit for my hammer drill but like you I said, Naw!, my regular drill and masonry bit will do the job. I don't need to spend the extra $. Sure enough I encounter a rock and i'm sitting there with the mental picture of the bit I researched and figured I better get........trying to be a hero, winding up a zero.😮
