Well, just to further derail this thread...I only rent jetskis when I'm in the Caribbean or something warm at this point, so I've got limited experience with them.

But I know with jet boats you can do a Hamilton turn. It just occurred to me that perhaps one could do this with a jet ski? Is that possible even - I don't know.

Also, for those that do it, I've heard of two ways - either of them true?

1. Full throttle, cut throttle fully and turn as sharp as it goes and then full throttle again. (This method seems like it would be the least stress on the internals of the boat).

2. Full throttle, then go into reverse while turning. This seems like it would cause a lot of stress on the internals.

Anybody ever do this in a boat and can chime in? Or anyone ever do this on a jet ski particularly?
