Safety Briefing

What We Cover

Every rental includes a full in-person safety briefing before you launch.

01

Equipment Overview

How the ski works, throttle controls, handlebars, storage, and differences between each unit in the fleet.

02

Kill Switch & Lanyard

The most important safety device. Attaches to your life jacket — if you fall off, the engine shuts down immediately.

03

Life Jacket / PFD

Coast Guard-approved PFD provided. Must be worn at all times while operating. Fit confirmed before departure.

04

Texas Boating Laws

Operating hours, distance requirements, no-wake zones, and what's prohibited on Texas waterways.

05

Emergency Procedures

Call 911 first. Stay near the watercraft if safe. Never attach yourself to a sinking ski.

06

Questions

We answer every question before you launch. No question is too basic — we want you confident on the water.
