Jet Skis made their first ever appearance at the Steamboat Sports Festival in Peoria this weekend.

Between the Steamboat races, ‘Typhoon Tommy’ Nuttall and his team put on displays of freestyle jet ski stunts. Take a look at this video of one of Nuttal’s previous Seadoo exhibition displays:

I think it’s a great thing that the jet ski is getting more recognition and that Nuttall’s dispalys are inspiring a whole new generation of jet ski riders. I can only expect that the steamboat races were a big yawn in comparison with the jet ski display.
