basiclt the title says it. i might be looking for a new sea doo. but dont know if i can let go of my 94 xp i love it so much, despite the fact that it flips easy. and would like to see reviews from sea doo lovers on other skis. and maby some conversations about them.
 
I really enjoy my 2007 GTX 155. Perfect combo of power and economy. very stable yet maneuverable. It pulls tuber's and wakeboarder's with ease!
 
1996 xp ex race - fun, fun, fun. Great ski to just screw around on

1998 gtxl - stable, fast, great cruiser, but missing that "throw around" feeling of a smaller craft.

1996 GSX 800 - great compromise of the two above. not quite as fun as the xp, but very stable. it is a great cruiser, great in chop, but still small enough to throw around and get air on wakes.
 
I have 2 Seadoo 96 XP'S. One in Dallas and one here in Phoenix. The XP back in Dallas I had since new. I like that ski, yes small but awsome jumpers. I got the 96 XP here in Phoenix a few years ago, saved it from the junk, for only $1000. I'm bringing it back to life for some nose bleed hang time in the air.

I have a 1998 XP in Dallas and a 2001 XP here in Phoenix. I also like this style of ski. A little bigger for rough water, I feel like I'm on a motorcycle on water, great feeling. I got the 2001 XP for a very good price, I had to replace the steering cable. I like fixing stuff.

I have a 2004 Seadoo 3D here in Phoenix, I don't see me having 2 of these. Its a fun ski but I like the XP'S better. I rode a RXP a few years ago, my 1st 4 stroke jet ski, it just didn't have the snap of my two stroke smokers :)
 
96 XP here, and like everyone else says, great fun, fast, jumps forever, but flips over if a second person even LOOKS at it. :ack:

I think there may be a weight issue, because when the wife and I were in college and the 96xp was new, we could both get on and ride no problem. Nowadays, both of us are a "bit" heavier, we are lucky if EITHER of us can stay on by ourselves!!!

Actually, only she falls, but she is a little top-heavy.

My other ski is a boat. :reddevil:

scooper77515, I see your in Arlington, TX. That's is where I use to work and then I lost my job there back in 2005, I found another job and had to move to Phoenix. I still got my house in Lewisville TX. My brother still lives there, hence that is why I still got 2 jet skies back there. On my dads 70'th birthday I had him on a jet ski back there. I miss Lake Lewisville I plan on coming back this summer and riding there :)
 
I am actually in Angleton, down south of Houston near the beach.

Moving soon to Huffman or Atascocita on Lake Houston. That is where we spend all our time anyway, and have family close by, and the wife just landed a job up there, so we are moving this summer.

I don't know how I got Arlington out of that, jeese. Nice maverick, I haven't seen one of those in years.
 
I own a 89 sp and I love it Its not bulky like the 3 seater I can lean as if its a crotch rocket have it on its gunwale. but that's old lol
 
Heck you and that 1994 xp is almost the same age. Yeppers keep it and enjoy it, especially if it runs good.

yep im only a year older and she runs flawless, i mean theres upgraded water and air intakes on it, but still runs incredible.
