Tim McKercher from Sea-Doo Special Projects takes us on a video tour of the new Sea-Doo RXT-X 300. California Green is a new color for 2020 with the ski also being available in Lava Red and Eclipse Black. The RXT-X 300 is built for the rider who likes to ride open water and wants to reach their destination really fast. The PWC is super stable whether idling, moving at full speed, or with the engine off. The stability comes from the watercraft having a low center of gravity unlike other machines in its class.

Another helpful feature is the Ergolock seating. The seating set up allows the rider to position forward to the engine and lock in with their legs with no strain. The featured X-Steering makes it easier to pull off aggressive turning with your feet locked into the footwells. With knees locked into the seat, even more leverage can be had. This machine is so stable, riders don’t have to be concerned with teetering at a dead stop.

Storage is another big deal with the Sea-Doo RXT-X 300. The set up makes it easy access to your storage from the seated position. Simply lift up the top and you can fill your gas tank without worry about fuel going into the water. A safety kit and fire extinguisher are all within reach. Plenty of room is available for extra supplies as well. The glove box is integrated with a waterproof cell phone case and USB charger. A 100-watt waterproof sound system is a popular add on to the RXT-X 300. The sound is focused on the rider so it can be heard at high speeds.

Another cool feature to note is the new 9½-inch digital display with fuel gauge, hour meter, clock, and trim level. Also, the right handlebar is equipped with a button that allows you to navigate through stats and other information, so you know what’s going on with your watercraft at all times. A couple of other cool features are the Intelligent Brake & Reverse (iBR) system. These items are placed in a way that your hands never have to leave the handlebars, so you can stay in control.

The Sea-Doo gives the rider more control at slower speeds because it will shift in forward, neutral, and reverse in idle speeds. Another great feature of the Sea-Doo RXT-X 300 is the expanded big back deck. Remove the seat and LinQ accessories and you have an instant sun deck. If a big day is planned, accessorize with the LinQ accessories like the cooler and clip in gas can. No tools are required for LinQ.

At 300hp and the quickest acceleration on the market, this bad boy will move! Engage the Launch Control and harness even more power and remain in control as the Launch feature keeps the bow down. Check out the video to see this beast in action and then schedule a test ride with your local dealer and experience the Sea-Doo RXT-X 300. We think you’ll dig the Sea-Doo Life.

Have you’ve ever wondered, “How come they don’t make movies like they did in the 1980’s anymore?” You aren’t alone. Fun action romps chocked full of pretty girls, exciting stunts, villains you love to hate, and locations you want to visit. (How many of you remember the 1980’s BMX movie “Rad”? We sure do.) Somehow, we forgot how to make fun movies over the years – everything has to be so damned serious.

Well, gasp a sigh of relief because fun is back! Famed IJSBA World Champion and Hollywood stunt double to the stars, Larry Rippenkroeger has just completed his opus “Hot Water”, which promises to bring the fun back to movies! More importantly, Ripper’s “Hot Water” hopes to bring jet skiing back into the limelight with tons of up close and exciting race footage to get the sport we love back in front of the general public.

“Hot Water” follows young hotshot Billy Burnett who dreams of being a professional jet skier. After a few daring exploits and some major setbacks, Burnett is paired with legendary five-time world champion, Jarid Harper. The now retired racer is hesitant to bring on the young Burnett at first, but sees a chance to right some wrongs and agrees to be his mentor and coach.

There’s plenty of stunts, dumb antics, adrenaline-fueled action and plenty of bikini clad girls – so pretty much a true-life depiction of jet ski racing! Ripper has yet to announce the official release date and whether we can expect to see it in theaters, or as a digital download, so stay tuned to the official website and Facebook page for more details!

Hey everyone, Kevin here. This one is gonna be a little more personal. I got a call Sunday afternoon that Aaron Cress passed away the day before (March 28th, 2020) from a sudden and very unexpected cardiac arrest. It came straight out of the blue, as did the news. Aaron wasn’t even 40 years old, I remember thinking. Worst of all, Aaron and his wife April had just had their first child, a boy – Archer – who is about 3 months old. “Good Lord,” I caught myself repeating. “He’s not even old enough to know that his dad is gone.”

Aaron was a super quality guy. I met him back in 2008 when he was still spinning wrenches at Dana Point Jet Ski Center, servicing the rental fleet and prepping new units for sale. He also had been enlisted to help keep Mark Gerner’s race skis together as Gerner pursued the Triple Crown Offshore Championship (winning first places in the Mark Hahn Memorial 300, the Long Beach-to-Catalina, and the Dana Point-to-Oceanside & Back races). Before long, Aaron was wrenching on the entire PWC Offshore team’s machines it seemed.

PWC Offshore Racing’s Mark Gerner said, “The tragic and premature loss of Aaron Cress is being grieved not only by [the] team, it is being felt by the entire offshore and endurance racing and riding community.  It’s a result of Aaron’s friendly and generous nature that made everyone he interacted with feel special. Aaron was […] was a loyal friend, an avid supporter of our endeavor to revitalize offshore racing in the United States. Aaron had a huge impact, substantially more than people will ever know. I will be forever grateful for his friendship, collaboration and support. He was friendly, selfless, unassuming and had a giving soul. I will miss him dearly.”

That’s why it was such a perfect fit to see Aaron donning an official Kawasaki employee shirt 4 or 5 years ago. Kawasaki is always in the hunt for top talent – particularly when they don’t have to relocate it – and Aaron was it in spades. Kawasaki Senior Public Relations Coordinator, Jon Rall shared, “I enjoyed working with Aaron and [especially] going to and from events with him. I will miss him as a coworker but more [than that] just his true friendship. Rest in peace Aaron, as you did great things for so many during your short stay on earth.”

Upon hearing the news, K38’s own Shawn Alladio went about (with David Tew) launching the Aaron Cress Memorial Fund to help cover funeral costs and help support Aaron’s widow and son. Alladio wrote, “Aaron supported an entire community, he gave more than he was ever gifted. Aaron Cress spent long hours after hours, away from his family to breathe life into race programs, events and riders. He was a PWC Offshore Racing Team icon. He was my friend. He was my ‘safety angel’ and did so much for those in our water rescue community.”

If you would, please click this link to GoFundMe to donate to the Aaron Cress Memorial Fund. While the whole left in the PWC community cannot be filled, any help and support we can put towards Aaron’s family will help.

We’re stoked to present this beautiful slow motion video from the Jet Ski Club Stavanger  YouTube channel. The video features a powerful Sea-Doo RXP-X 300 and its rider flowing effortlessly through the glassy conditions on a waterway in Roggland, Norway. It’s a dreamy setting that any  one of us would love to take advantage of. The flawless images are captured from above the water and also from the rider’s point of view, making us feel like we’re inside the scene.

This was achieved by attaching the waterproof Insta 360 One X camera to a custom-made steering wheel bar mount, which is fastened into one of the handlebar extension screws on the ski. The rider in the clip was able to score epic shots from any angle using the following camera settings; 360 Capture, SloMo, and the Drifter. The Drifter is an accessory that turns the camera into a small drone, which is accomplished by simply attaching it to the camera. Using the Drifter, the rider was able to capture the incredibly sharp airborne footage of Sea-Doo’s RXP-X 300.

The RXP-X 300 is a mix of power, stellar handling, and control like nothing else on the water. Those elements really stand out in the slow-motion clip. Moreover, the Rotax 300 horsepower engine gives the rider plenty of speed and power to pull off some tight cutbacks while taking advantage of the stability of  Sea-Doo’s T3 Hull. The video showcases many of the great features Sea-Doo has to offer with the high performance RXP-X 300. Check it out!
