Supporting Member Than_Bogan Posted December 1, 2011 Supporting Member Share Posted December 1, 2011 www.jetlev.com Pretty easy to dig up some YouTube videos of it in action. Looks like it would be an absolute blast for about one season, but after that I'm not sure there's much more you could do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller A_B Posted December 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 1, 2011 I think I would need 4 thrusters though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Stevie Boy Posted December 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 1, 2011 Now there,s a project I wonder if you could make a home build out of an old jetski, I don't think it would be to hard to lash something together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Steven_Haines Posted December 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 1, 2011 I watched a deal on tv last night where 2 guys built there own thruster pack using a jet ski as their power source. It was able to fly a grown man of about 200#. They didn't have much control over their flight though. One guy kept on plowing down into the lake. It looked like he was trying to down himself.

Baller Steven_Haines Posted December 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 1, 2011 I think the show was called Redneck Rocketry? It was on Fuel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Chef23 Posted December 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 1, 2011 Looks like the kind of thing that would be fun to do once or twice but I am not sure I would want to pay for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller klindy Posted December 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 1, 2011 at nearly $100k that's a pretty expensive ride or two..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Dirt Posted December 1, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 1, 2011 I saw that thing being demonstrated at Oshkosh a couple years ago. It was pretty cool. I wouldn't do it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ Wish Posted December 2, 2011 Baller_ Share Posted December 2, 2011 $100,000 seams reasonable when you consider a color upgrade to something other than black costs an additional $3500. Now that's expesive for a couple cans of spray paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Texas6 Posted December 3, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 3, 2011 How much does it cost to have skin added back to your feet after the thrusters peel it off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Mateo_Vargas Posted December 4, 2011 Baller Share Posted December 4, 2011 He probably has one of these crazy jet skis too. http://tinyurl.com/7nlplye Also check out the Flame Tornado at the end of the show which should be required at all night jump tournaments. Kevin the builder is in the Berkeley Ski Club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
