When freeriding came into the scene of jet ski riding, only a few ventured out into the rough currents to perform tricks. With custom hulls, powerful motors and superior handling, more and more riders are giving freeriding a chance. Now we see Mark Gomez pulling crazy tricks, Abraham Ho getting higher than viewers kites and Jake Bright continuing to wow the crowd. These riders along with many other are growing the sport at an extremely fast rate.
Daytona, Florida is an iconic city that thousands flock to every year for the Daytona 500 motor race. While Freeriding isn’t as big as NASCAR yet, the Daytona Freeride Competition has been going on for a few years now and it is increasing in size each year. While this is an event many people travel to, work and busy schedules do not always allow for a weekend getaway to the beach. Thankfully Spectrum Innovations was on scene for the event and was able to create one of the best videos featuring freeride.
This video was done excellently as it showed how after a long night of hanging out with the riders, they wake up early and are warming up their watercrafts. Check it out if you haven’t seen it and share it with your fellow riding buddies. They will surely think it’s as cool as we thought it was. If you would like a full recap of the Daytona Freeride check out Mark Gomez’s news story here on The Watercraft Journal.
