The Boys of Summer




Welcome to the site dedicated to the group of jetskiiers that tear up the water on Lake Shelbyville. We absolutely love to jetski and wakeboard and it is about time that we decided to show everyone what we do! On this website you will see pictures from last summer and all the crazy stuff we did on jetskis.


This is a picture of me with a suit on. Quite unusual for being at the lake!











This is Tyler on a 2003 Seadoo GTX 4-Tec Supercharged. He is jumping some wakes as one of the houseboats leaves the marina.












Matt and Tyler are riding side by side heading out to the main lake. Something tells me that a lot of hardcore jetskiing is going to happen.













This is Matt, he is riding a 2000 Seadoo GTX Millenium Edition. The is getting some damn good air from the back of this houseboat. His form is quite good but the angle of the jetski needs to be even more vertical. He is still trying to perfect his jumps.













Matt is out tearing the water up behind the boat. This is just a simple trick but it looks good and looking good while jetskiing is the entire point.












Finally this is another Picture of Matt out jetskiing. However, here he is flying bye the boat laying down trying to get the most possible speed out of the jetski. It looks kinda goofy but it actually works to go faster and going faster is a good thing.


























Thanks for looking at my website, I hope you have enjoyed seeing what we do on our local lake. This is a weekendly event for us throughout all of the summer so if all goes well this site could be updated randomly to show new pictures of crazy shit we have done. Well I dont know about all of you but I'm really looking forward to summer starting. I'll see you out on the lake.

Below are hyperlinks that relate to other places or events that our group takes part in. One of the hyperlinks is Seadoo's official website. If your looking for a new jetski or seeing what the possible competition for the up coming summer is visit the website and see what is new. I strongly recommend the 2004 Seadoo RXP, 215 horsepower 4 Stroke engine, Power trim and Reverse. One hell of a jetski that comes in two new colors: Yellow and Metallic Green. Check it out! Top Speed 68mph. Gotta love that.
