Boat jumping!

Hello everyone, new to the forum. Introduction, I am a guy who likes fast cars, boats and girls.... aint that suprising!

Anyways, taking huge leaps/jumps with boats is one of my favourite things to do, you know the feeling, when you have made your decision, after a wave flying high, throttled down, and you know that there isn't anything, anything you can do anymore to get a good landing except trust in yourself that you made the best decision before launching up in air. And then the funny thing, it allways seem like the world is standing still, time is moving slowly and everything is silent. LOVE IT! And then comes the adrenaline!

Anyone else love to jump with boats? The winter is settling down here in scandinavia and I am allready having withdrawls....

So anyone got nice pics or vids of jumping boats?

Here is one pic of me skippering a highflying boat and a vid I found on youtube

Looks like a blast, though I can't can't imagine that's good structurally for the hulls.

Yeah it's not maybe good for the hulls but SOME boats are built for it. There is a reason why some boats are cheap, and some not.

Here's some nice slo-mo´s of jumping

Cool pics and vids. While the hulls may be built for it, I hope you are backing off the throttles mid air...
