Well, if you weren’t at this year’s 2014 Jettribe IJSBA World Finals then you missed out on a lot more than being witness to some of the most exciting personal watercraft racing (but more on that in a second). Factory Yamaha’s Aero Aswar earned his win in Pro Stock and Yousef Alabdulrazzaq in Pro Limited Runabout classes. Joining the two Dean’s Team racers were wins in Women’s Runabout, Runabout Open Slalom, Expert Runabout Veterans, Expert Runabout, and Amateur Runabout, making the weekend definitely something for Yamaha WaveRunners to be proud of.
In addition to bringing home a lot of hardware for the brand with the tuning forks, Yamaha was on site in a big, big way with a whole corner of the midway dedicated to the brand, showing off the new RiDE dual-throttle braking and reverse system as well as the return of the last remaining two-stroke watercraft in the industry, the SuperJet.
For those on hand, special fliers were available offering an amazing $1,000 off on the purchase of any 2014 or 2013 SuperJet between October 4th through the 31st of this year. Although the coupon states that it must be present at time of purchase to present the special code printed on the back (code: C2-N2M), we’re hoping dealers will be willing to let it slide just this one time. (Oh, and the offer isn’t valid in either New York or California because those states are jerks.)
Finally, Yamaha is launching it’s all-new ShopYamaha.com e-commerce website for all of you looking to score on some seriously cool Yamaha gear before anybody else. The new site is, according to the press release, “the newest way for you to browse and purchase Yamaha accessories and apparel online. Find every day essentials like dock lines and anchors along with knee and wakeboards. Plus Genuine Yamaha covers to protect your baby this off-season.”
