New Jetski Tips/Advice/Accessory Info Wanted

Also, is it possible to stay dry on a ski? I'm guessing my feet will always be wet, but what do people do in early/late season to not get wet/cold? Is the jetski season just a little shorter than boating?

As Tilton pointed out, sunglasses will allow wind to creep through by the nose and around the sides. Goggles seal out the wind. You can get the lenses tinted or untinted, depending on your preference. For footwear, I use a WATER SHOE made by Speedo. Other than your feet, you can pretty much stay dry as long as you pay attention and maneuver properly around big waves. If you plow straight through them, you’re gonna get wet.

Seaplane Pilot, you had me worried for a moment. I was glancing through your post and missing the first two words in the sentence, I read "...I use a Speedo..." and then saw water shoe. Erasing the Speedo image from my brain (as feeble as it may be), I then read the sentence in total.

Oh my aching head, you had me worried for a minute, Up! I intend on editing that statement so there's no confusion! No banana hammocks for me!

You would not want to see SP in a speedo. But to be fair he could pull it off a lot better than I.
