I love that takeoff' I grew up on two kawasaki 550s stand up jet skis and Ive always loved the stand up style...I logged in over 100 hours of riding for several years...that thing is a beast'

[@AdamSwords]

Nice!!

[@crimsoncrime007]

How can you ride two skis at once. You a bad man ..

[@thebuckey6684]

Been watching you now for about a month. Appreciate the content and videos. Great work!!!

[@AdamSwords]

I appreciate that! Thanks for sticking around!

[@2_be_determined]

Awesome job all around. Video production, riding, and promotion. Well done 👏 👏 👏

[@AdamSwords]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@mr.vancouver007]

Those were popular back in the late 70's and 80's

[@CycleMycl]

Still popular, most people don’t want to put the time in to ride them and get good at it.

[@AdamSwords]

Still are!

[@Nologoszx6r]

@@CycleMyclsame with everything. People are lazy!

[@daverupes7022]

It's too bad these are so rare. It actually takes some skill to ride a stand up and it's much funner than a sit down. Kind of like the different between driving a corvette as the stand up to a huge 4 door mini van with the sit down skis people ride around on these days.

[@rbtgaming6504]

​@@daverupes7022lol they aren't rare

[@z1jayjay542]

If that is your 1st time you did amazing Adam 👏

[@AdamSwords]

Thanks, it was!

[@yourlocalhooligan]

Anna's retro color livery is so sick. Also I have no idea how to ride a standup so the fact that you caught on so well says something. Maybe the teachers helped a bit too lolll. She stuck you with the gold loco too!!! That's dirty 🤣

[@AdamSwords]

She doesn’t play fair ;)

[@ozzielinkin]

Stand ups are like dirt bikes on the water. . jumping waves in the ocean on a stand up is incredible. Braaaaaaaappppp

[@AdamSwords]

They are!

[@davidcorbett62]

As someone who had only ridden a sit down once ( badly) I can understand how difficult that was. But the speed they set off is amazing

[@AdamSwords]

It’s insane

[@revodrvr]

I've been waiting for this episode

[@AdamSwords]

🤘🏻

[@jamesroberts3642]

I bought a stand up Yamaha Superjet years ago....Replaced it with a 701 engine and painted and did some other mods. It spoiled me....Sit downs are so boring now even though it's been years since I sold it. Gonna buy another one day

[@the_voice_of_reason]

That’s amazing , you did really well …. That looks so difficult… don’t sell yourself short… for a first time, I think you did brilliantly Adam. 👏👏👏👏

[@AdamSwords]

Thank you so much!

[@williamfielding8302]

Great video Adam, I don't know what was better watching you fall or just watching Anna. keep living your everyday adventure and keep smiling. You are a Rockstar ...

[@AdamSwords]

Haha thanks Will!

[@Steven-io7hx]

Once again thank you adam you are truly the greatest

[@AdamSwords]

I appreciate that!

[@intelligentautomation4465]

That's so awesome. I haven't ridden standups ever but want to get one in the next couple years. Might start with a super jet then try a Kommander since they are local there. These Prowatercraft are now on my radar. I spend a lot of time in the Phoenix area and am trying to figure out how to start racing on my gp1800 in that area. I need to get out to Havasu as well, I haven't seen it in years. Awesome vid you all, lots of legit fun!

[@AdamSwords]

Oh man you have to try one of these

[@Gabara_Gaming]

adam you inspired me to start my everyday adventure, i moved from birmingham UK, Nice work adam! 👍👍😁

Another amazing video them things are insane bro

[@AdamSwords]

They are! Thanks for watching

[@3akoscielski]

Stand-ups seem like a whole different world of PWCs. Seems like a blast!

[@AdamSwords]

They are 100% different!

[@tangenarms7570]

@AdamSwords I wouldn't have even attempted it. I haven't even see a stand up since probably late 70s early 80s. Wasn't even aware they were still a thing.

[@AdamSwords]

Oh yeah they’re huge out in Havasu. More stand ups than sit downs

[@briangarrett710]

There bad ass

[@nordic5490]

Yup, standups are 'skis', sitdowns are 'couches'. I have 2 kawasaki 600 standups, high comp, 800cc, bigpipe

[@timothycollette8263]

Anna is the best!!! Great video!

[@thesaltlifemanshow5522]

First off what a gorgeous legend to teach you. Second off I've never understood why so many people have issues standing on these. I have one of the Kawasakis 7 series and I love it. I also used to ride my jet powered surf board quite a bit and I've surfed since I was 10. Granted I'm 37 and weigh 135 pounds at six foot two. I've just never been able to gain weight. To much metabolism I guess. Gotta admit that is one nice lookin stand up. I'll stick with my 4 seaters tho. I've got a 2000 kawasaki stx900 that's had a ton of work over the years and it's easily capable of 120+

[@SherriRichLifeJohnson]

👍 awesome ride Adam for your first time doing a stand up

This was a cool video! Thats a cool ski and they both rip. and yea theyre deff right you did for first time on a standup. some people just take a long time to get and some people just pick it up quick, it seems random. I wasnt bad my first time, but i wasnt standing up right away either..

It also might be time to retire the boots. Lol.😂. Imagine riding those to Catalina and then having to ride back the same day. I'd be lost at sea. Great video. On to the next.

[@rdoc]

You are dead wrong in thinking that a lower powered ski will be easier to ride. In the stand-up game, the more power you have the easier it is to ride. Especially if you are a big boy like yourself. When you go to fall you can power out, where as with a slow ski you can't. I have over 25 years experience riding stand-up's. BTW, these people should have told you this.

First and foremost, you need to cut about 50 pounds. Carrying that much weight makes all the difference in being able to ride a stand-up. Especially when you are trying to learn. Cut back on the Bangers and mash mate!
