To my knowledge, they hadn't been used in the show yet... but if MiceAge has pictures of it, I'm assuming Sunday is the only day we've used them. The jet ski scene fits into the motorcycle sequence, and is pretty short, but impressive. I've only seen them rehearsing, but it's definitely a good addition to the show.

When I went to one of the previews, I asked a CM why there were no JetSkis in the show like in the Paris version. He told me it was because the water tanks were built too shallow. :veryconfu

Gary, that CM was just BSing you. They just haven't done enough rehearsing yet, remember, they still have a few more days before the show officially opens.

I figured as much. Those tanks looked plenty deep enough to support a JetSki.

The CM wasn't BSing you, Gary... they have bottomed out the jet skis in there. Once they start using the jet skis, you'll see just how shallow that water is when someone walks through it... it's only about waist high.

Just for reference, JetSkis do not need much deeper than a waist high depth. They actually can run shallower than that, since they do not have propellors (sp?). Now if they are jumping into that depth, then yes it would seem to be too shallow.

Correct, they have a jet drive that uses an internal impeller to suck in the water. They only need a foot or so.

We went to the show on Sunday, they used the Jet Skis during the show. For what they did it seemed like a waste of time, maybe they should of had built the wells bigger.

A foot of water? :lol:

I use to stunt ride jet skis so I know a lot about them. The minimum you should take it in is about 3 to 4 feet depending on the weight of the rider.

Anyone know what kind of jet skis they are using?

Paris` Jet Skis were mothballed after a serious accident with them.
