104

It’s a point of pride for all of us at The Watercraft Journal that we were not only the first, but the only personal watercraft magazine to provide you late-breaking full-length coverage from this past September’s Cronulla Rip N’ Ride. The Australian freeride event continues to swell into the sport’s biggest, welcoming riders from across the globe and providing them with some of the best (and biggest) prizes, including a brand new DASA engine and a 2014 Yamaha SuperJet!

One of the many highlights from the weekend’s event was JetPilot’s “Battle of the Best” showdown. With many of the pros pushing themselves to the limit executing flawless tricks, massive airs and huge carves, it was Southern California’s Mark Gomez who proved unstoppable, besting the likes of Brandon Lawlor and Pierre Maixent, and took out the title of Jet Pilots’ Best of the Best.

The Watercraft Journal had an exclusive opportunity to chat with Mark after his ride, telling us, “That was the best I have ever rode in my life.” Although the contention was tight, Gomez reigned supreme, leaving second place to Mick Anthony and a close third to Pierre. Below is a short but sweet recap of Gomez’s domination and some of the amazing aerial action that transpired at Cronulla. Enjoy the short video below, and make sure to read the full recap from this year’s Rip N’ Ride HERE.
