The control is very simple and in reverse, when you compare it to the conventional controls found in a motorbike.
You press the throttle with your index finger to speed up, and you let it go to slowdown.
The engine is quiet reactive, not at a breakneck pace, but it will still jerk your body pretty good if you are not careful.
The sensations are vastly different from what you would experience when you’re driving on land.
If you reach a certain speed, it would seem like you’re skimming through the surface but feeling every bit of the trough and apex of the surface.
I was ‘driving’ a jet ski and circling around the designated ‘track’ at the Alegre Resort in Cebu a couple of years ago with friends.
It was a fascinating experience.
Although it was not my first time to mount a jet ski, or more accurately a waverunner, nothing beats speeding through water, catching the splash of seawater on your face, and creating a rooster tail behind you as you gain speed.
It was nice being airborne for a few seconds, if you happen to catch the right wave.
You do not need to worry because the waverunner is pretty squat and stable and it is highly unlikely that you will flip over. You just have to tighten your grip.
The waverunner maybe built for speed and stability, but the ride was fairly comfortable.
I had fun riding alone and imagining myself a wanderer or an adventurer. I was in the middle of the sea with my trusty waverunner, and I felt invincible, as I stood up to scout the destination ahead.
It was fun speeding up and slowing down, just to test yourself and your nerves. It was nice speeding up while standing up, your legs serving as your very own shock absorbers.
I also had fun riding in tandem with friends, and racing around with another tandem, until we tired out or until the adrenaline rush emptied.
At the end of the day, it was fun resting in one of the hammocks scattered at Alegre Resort lazily waiting for time to pass you by.
