Are you planning to go jet skiing in Lake Powell? If you have chosen to go on any of the Lake Powell Boat Tours, then jet skiing may be a part of it. You should agree that safety should come first, no matter whether you are riding a jet-ski or a sports car or something else. But you have to take different precautions while riding different vehicles. In this post, we will discuss the things that you have to take care of while riding a jet-ski.

The first thing that you have to keep in mind while riding the jet-ski is that you have to keep it straight. But you may correct it. If you have been staring at the handlebars, or the water that is just off the bow of the ski then you should better be looking off the distance. In this way, you will be driving straight and may better enjoy your trip. In case you are facing troubles, all you have to do is to look at the stationary point on the land or the water.

Second, you can’t turn away from any challenge without pushing the throttle. It is because of this thrust you can jet-ski, and if you stop giving the thrust, you may not be able to steer altogether. In case of an emergency, or when you are on a collision path, don’t take your finger off the throttle as it may take away your ability to steer away from the danger. All you have to do is to keep your speed up and move away from the collision path.

Oh, so you have fallen off, and it may happen to anytime. But when you are willing to ride back again, you have to ride it from the back. Just reach to the handle from behind the seat and pull yourself out of the water onto the deck of the ski. If you try riding the ski from the side, it may cause the ski to flip.

If you are riding the ski for the first time, you might feel that your hand have got tired or you may feel some sort of soreness in the shoulder. To overcome this, all you have to do is to lean forward and relax the grip.

Finally, Lake Powell boat tours are full of fun, and if you make the best use of these tips, your journey would be safer and exciting as well.
