Skiing or Riding: The watercraft and skier/rider should always maintain a sufficient distance from obstacles so a skier/rider falling
or coasting and/or watercraft will not encounter any obstacle.

• Use only on the water.
• Never attempt land or dock starts. This will increase your risk of injury or death.
• Always wear a properly fitted U.S. Coast Guard Type III (PFD) or ISO approved Life Jacket.
• The faster you ski or ride, the greater your risk of injury.
• Never make sharp turns that may cause a slingshot effect on the skier/rider’s speed.
• Skier/Rider should be towed at an appropriate speed for their ability level.
Fallen skier or rider: Falling and injuries are common in skiing or riding.
• Circle a fallen skier/rider slowly to return the tow rope handle or pick up the fallen skier/rider.
• Put the watercraft in neutral when near a fallen skier/rider.
• Always keep the fallen skier/rider in view and on the driver’s side of the watercraft.
