Thanks Circus Media, and many thanks to Gary for sticking with the passion. It’s a joy to watch.

I do what I do for these types of comments, thank you so much!!! Made my day 😁💯

My thoughts exactly.

@snkypete3017 Год назад

Thought the exact same thing.

@drewparcel1727 11 месяцев назад

Right before he turned around it looked like he passed really close to another boat or buoy. It may have been the windshield angle making it look closer than it actually was but it made my corn hole pucker!

@mauryballstein8863 Год назад

You can tell where he hits the wind at the end of the course. The whole boat came out of the water after he let off. You can see the split second where the rooster tail has a gap in it when the boat is in the air and touched back down. You can hear the boat touch come out of the water and come back down too. Badass run.

@paullanglie9515 Год назад

I'd recommend that he fasten the chin strap on his helmet. Just so it doesn't suck up on his head and cover his vision. As far as safety at that speed, it probably would not matter if he did or did not have it strapped if there was a crash...... Congratulations, that is hauling the mail right there! Paul

@circusmediahouse Год назад

Thanks so much for the comment!!

@scottgillman4577 Год назад

Exactly. Helmet does no good without the strap.

@onthelake9554 Год назад

@@scottgillman4577 Actually it does , it protects your head on the way out of the boat then comes off instead of breaking your neck when you hit the water . No one I know buckles them . Seen too many broken necks from it catching the water .

@ultimatecontactsports Год назад

If you buckle the helmet and get thrown out the boat, what if water catches on the helmet? Instead of ripping it off it’s gonna damn near rip your head off! Most people wanna take their chances with it unbuckled!

I’ve been 155+, by the GPS, on Lake Powell, also a Skater. Pretty scary at first, then overwhelmingly fun. The weirdest thing? Once we slowed down to around 100 it seemed like we were just crawling.

@mjodr Год назад

I was just watching a video that showed how many people died trying to get boats to go 200 mph and now you have modern stuff designed so well it looks kinda boring lol. That's how a planted boat should look tho.

@rickbullock4331 Год назад

@@mjodr , I’m guessing a calm water with little to zero wind also helps and a steady driver/throttle person.

@mjodr Год назад

@@rickbullock4331 There's never zero wind out here and and at the end of the run it looks like the surface of the lake wasn't perfect. I think he did mention a section with some wind. But the boat is made for this.

Gary, Wow! But honestly, the helmet not being strapped on, won't help much, might not even being strapped on and secured properly. The life jacket at 204 is merely to help find the body, if something went wrong. But, WOW!! 204 in an open cockpit Skater is fantastic!

@markymark959 Год назад

Helmets are a great idea…too bad at 204.1 mph they will not save you. You crash - you die. Excellent boat and excellent driver, but fact is stuff happens and when it does….we’ll, you gone brother. I wish this boat and all its driver, safety and success, but no such guarantees exist at those speeds. Remarkable achievement. great job.

Tommy Boston you can’t buckle into an open cockpit boat. If the boat capsizes you will drown. Not that it matters at 200 mph.
