He needed a helmet too..........notice his head hit the side of the boat HARD when he was thrown out of the seat.

cant say there was really anything he could do after he launched off the wake that caused the spin.... other than back out when it began to bow steer as he crossed the first side... lucky to have not actually been hurt worse as he struck the back deck and possibly the engine cowl as he flew out..

Needs to read the waves and and hit them ar right angles . The boat is also loaded tail heavy thats why the back wanted to pass the front while still at speed and airbourne . Lots to learn from that video !!Messing round with boats is fun !! the learning never stops ,even after more than 30 years there's always something new happening somewhere ! BUT somethings never change and some problems never go away and just keep reoccurring !!so moved into Composite Forensics , Now that something completely new !!

Not Good
I viewed that video and my thought's are, they appeared to try to make a movie about crashing and safety equipment. With all due respect to him crashing, why would your friends be taping this ? And then going over a large wake at speed ? It makes no sence. Glad he's ok, but why go over a large roller at speed ? Its not an Allison !!

I don't think they were trying to do a video about safety at all.....it was some some guy out messing around with his friends taping him. At least that's my view on it. The guy obviously had no idea how to handle that boat.....
