    They are great in the right environment, you need lots of open water and now swimmers around to run over. They also can be much more expensive to own as you will need gas/oil/upkeep and insurance is not a bad idea. Oh, and a trailer to haul them around on if you do not live on a lake.

    Other than that they are awesome!

    I go out on a Jet Ski all the time when I visit my holiday house with my family. The house is right near a fairly large lake so Jet Ski all the time. It's great fun and the adrenaline rush is immense. Jet Skis can be quite expensive so look at the available and dedication you'll offer before purchasing one.

    id get bored of a jet ski. i need to do pursuits that have variety. ive done scuba diving and im doing some paragliding, these 2 pursuits offer a wide variety of activities within. i just think with jet ski all youre gonna be doing is riding up and down as fast as u can and do a couple of sharp turns, tricks etc.

    I love riding on jetskis, with the water spraying everywhere, it's exhilirating.

    I think of them as motorcycles on water. Fast and agile! On TV I have seen competitions where they surf big wave on jetskis and even jump waves with them.

    In the big regular surfing events the jetskis have cameramen and rescuers on them for WHEN (not if) the surfers get slammed by a big wave.

    I have never had a chance to get on a jet ski. They look like a blast. Hopefully one day I will get the chance.

    How is that even possible? I use to ride them every weekend and I'd never get bored of them.

    Jet skis look like fun and they're popular here in Florida, but I can't swim, so I would have to learn how to swim before I progressed to riding any sporty water vehicles. For right now, the only jet ski I'll be riding is in the upcoming video game Grand Theft Auto 5.

    Here in Florida, people sometimes jet ski under the influence of alcohol and bad things happen, so they are as dangerous as motorcycles in a way.

    Tricks. Tricks and games of high speed water tag/ watergun tagging. That is why people love jet skis. I really love a nice beach with wave after wave that you launch off of.

    I have never been on a jet ski but would like to give it a try. There are lots of lakes close by with marinas where you can rent jet skis but they are so expensive by the hour. My kids are getting bigger too (11 & 14) so I think they would enjoy it as well. I think I will make plans for us to do that one day this summer.

    I love riding on a jet ski. They have been around since the 1970s and the recreational vehicles have really become very popular since then. I got a real sweet deal on mine and keep them to go out on the water at least once a year.

    My brother bought some jet skis a few years back and we take the out to the lake every year. It's cool to own jet skis if you are going to truly use them a lot. If you use them once a year and have them sitting inside the garage for the rest of the year ,then it isn't worth spending the money for them.
