Default Can a jetski pull a water skiier?

If so, are there power or weight requirements, or can they all do the job?

It's real tough. The skiier and the jetski operator have to be very experienced. Not much margin for error and it's very difficult for the skiier to get out of the water..

as long as the jet ski is powerful enough. so, no not all of them can do it. I have done it a few times, its fun!! u just gotta be careful, watch for other boaters and jetskiers.

Yes. Jetski's can be faster than a speed boat. But don't have as much power. Which is very usful when you are slalom skiing, so it can get you out of the water. But it will work.

I think it will only work with kids and maybe people who weigh under 100 pounds. Once you get going youll be fine no matter what the wieght but pulling the person out of the water is the problem.... guess you could do a beach start
