Hello everyone,
I would like to review my new Seadoo Spark 3up. I have been on it on 4 different occasions and I'm very pleased with my purchase. My Spark is black/white version and has the following options I've added:
Front storage bin
Rear floor mat
Flush kit
Front Camera mount (iPhone 5s)
The Spark is very light and I pull it around with my Prius V without even trying. This allows me to take longer trips to new destinations around Florida. I filled the tank up once with 5 gallons after I have been out on it 4 times for half day fun. The Spark is everything as advertised... Rapid response in all directions. Water splashing everywhere as you lift it out of the water like you hit a ramp. Yeah, no wake needed to bunny hop two feet like a skateboard alloy. Top speed 50mph... I've seen 51 a couple times for a short second. The acceleration is supercharger like... Instant.
I find myself in touring mode 90% of the time. It seems to me that Sport Mode is for tricks. Once in Sports Mode, you start bunny hopping without even trying. This was on a still lake. Imagine a 3' wake = Superman!
I'm 220lbs rider and the ride is very stable. This past weekend I had another 200lbs rider with me. He stood up as I carved the lake in figure 8s. We took a tight corner and drifted sideways for about 8 yards going 40mph. My rider flew off and yanked me right out of my seat with him. It felt like my parachute opened. We both fell into the cold lake and the Spark simply kept going until it ran out of momentum (Thank goodness for kill switch). We both swam about 20 yards. At that point I was thinking I should of gotten the step option. Nonetheless, I placed my knee on the mat and pulled myself up in seconds.... Naaaa I don't need the step after all. My rider rocked the boat left to right, then right to left... Then finally got himself on. Didn't know what the hell was going on back there, but it seemed he would of benefitted from the convenience of a step LOL
I love the Spark
