    Default Anyone Ride Stand ups?

    Anyone ride stand ups? Like Stand up jet skis?

    I am 185 lbs, just wondering what is a big enough size to have fun on. Is a 550 big enough? Or is a 650 too big? Hell I have found 450s too.

    Just any advice would be cool, I am finally getting into the sport.

    I used to ride JS550's and now have a 650sx and 650SXi

    You can ride the 550 no problem!

    I don't personally own a stand up, but a friend of mine has had a few different ones. I'm a little heavier than you (210lbs) and a 550 has enough power to pull me, but.... bigger is better!!!
