2006-11-15 - Hanging On

The wakeskater who featured in yesterday's sequence was being towed along by this Jet Ski, instead of a boat like the wake boarders. When towing someone, you can't go too crazy so after the wakeskate demonstration had finished, they took the Jet Ski out and gave it a proper work out. They're amazingly manoeuvrable and if you don't hang on tight, you can easily be thrown off -- as happened to the girl on the back just a few minutes before this shot. Unfortunately I missed her flying off the back but you can see how tightly she is hanging after that experience...
