Video: Standup Jetskiers Charge Wintery River

Screen Shot 2015-03-10 at 10.39.42 PM

While some of you might be enjoying the endless summer provided by the southern latitudes, most of the world are still praying for the snows to ebb and the cooler temperatures to give way to some Springtime warmth. Yes, we’re all pretty much sick of winter. Thankfully, not all of us are content to be confined in our homes, hiding beneath the covers until summer comes.

We spotted a pair of daring Frenchmen bold enough to brave the cold and charge what looks to be a very chilly shallow river (dare we even say a stream?) not too far from Normandy, France. On a pair of modded Yamaha SuperJets, Emmanuel Jules and fellow skier Boris Micharoff swerve through low-hanging bows and reaching branches, exposed roots and other obstacles to come out the other end unscathed.

Boris’ GoPro provides us a unique point of perspective that was almost impossible a decade earlier. Now we get to share in the two’s exploits as they make short work of this quick jaunt. Of course, this isn’t the first of videos showcasing many of Emmanuel’s exploits, and after watching the video below, we strongly suggest you follow the above link and check out the rest of what these ski enthusiasts have been up to.
