A friend of mine had a Contender, blown over twice before he got it, and once while he owned it. If you haven't gotten wet yet, you ain't going fast enough lol...:D

Is that a looper or a cross on yours? I can't quite make it out. We had another set up for someone with a 200 Looper... think he was running 90ish...

There are a couple shots that you just have to wonder what's going through his mind as the events are unfolding, like right before he hits the water and then when he's looking up at the boat over him. Yeah, not so much fun. :jawdrop: :)

This is an STV pictured though. Quite stable at speed, and you really have to f*ck up to get one over. If you watch the vid, Hank was overtrimmed and the boat came up and settled twice before finally going over. It gave him warning, but he didn't take heed.
FYI, Mike Dixon has been 151 in his STV River Rocket, so they will go fast and do it safely.

You don't see too many of those 17s anymore. They were actually a nice ride if you didn't get too brave with the trim up button...:D
