[QUOTE="ktm450, post: 220981, member: 5891"] Yes, you are correct. Let off the gas and it idles down, but the main difference is that a jet ski even while at idle will still move, and also the only way a jet ski can turn is by having the engine running. also jet skis don't really stop on a dime, and there is no kill switch either. There are so many variables that can play in this scenario: 1. did the throttle stick? 2. was he wearing the tether 3. did the tether fail- ( have had this happen to my jet ski once) definitely a terrible accident, thoughts and prayers go out to all involved [/QUOTE]
