ok well this weekend might be the first time i get to ride behind our jetskis that are finally out of the shop. since ill probably be the first person to go what would i tell a fairly new driver to do? i mean he has drivin jetskis but not pulled someone, nor have i. do i jsut tell him to floor it? i mean i really have no idea what to tell him to make it seem easy to pull me up. and also, what speed and rope length do you prefer? thanks for any help.

depends a bit on the horsepower of the ski, but yeah, have him floor it to get you up. You'll have to play around with the rope length to get your preference. speed should be similar to a boat's speed while pulling. Big fun....enjoy.
