Video: This Gives New Meaning to Submarining


A short clip featured on Stand Up Nation’s Instagram, features one of the stand up jet ski stunt riders from the Universal Studios Hollywood Waterworld Experience. The show features professional stand up jet ski riders and they’ve got mad skills, especially considering the maneuvers they pull off in the extremely tight quarters. It’s impressive.

The rider who is practicing in the featured clip pulls a slick maneuver and dives his PWC underwater, riding it for about 5 seconds before surfacing. What should we call it? Is it an extended submarine or maybe underwater slalom riding without cones? Whatever it is, it looks fun!

The Waterworld Experience looks like an amusing comedy of errors with a couple of guys jet skiing within an old school pirate set. They pull off some rad stunts. The full show can be watched via the YouTube video linked above. It’s good for a laugh and you can see the rider on his PWC going underwater in order to get out of harms way. He pulls off the trick so fast, it’s easy to miss.

Okay, so you’ve mastered the art of above the surface slalom racing, why not give underwater slalom a go? The rider in the video makes it look so easy! Ha, we know better! Enjoy the clip!
