![]() ![]() Dean says it is a great workhorse of a machine and they can recommend it for day in and day out usage. This model is non supercharged model meaning the engine is running with less stress and the complexity of the system is reduced. The system they are running uses a dual impeller from Skat Trak. Riders of 200 pounds (90 kilos) are flying heights up to 35 feet (10.5 meters) over the surface. Jetpack America has been running Yamaha VXS (brother to the VXR) models for hydro flight jetpacks and Jetblades and getting great performance. ![]() This review of a Hydro Good Machine© comes from Dean O’Malley at Jetpack America. However for a low barrier to entry basic workhorse for getting new customers out of the water and relatively high into the air, the GTI/GTS 130 is a great choice. This is not the choice if you are looking for an ultimate performance machine (fast upward acceleration, running at the top of the height range of ten plus meters, etc.). We can’t wait ’til next week when we get the dual prop on it. Amber, our female trainer, said this machine was great, did not overpower her and tire her out like an RXP/RXT, she would use this all day long. I (Keith) was able to do everything on the X-Jetpack that I was able to do on a high powered ski, not as fast but wow!. Holy crap, we were getting a 230 pound rider on a Jetblade 25 feet (7.5 meters) in the air with no difficulty. “Ran this 2014 machine stock with a factory impeller. There are a few rental operations running this machine for daily operations over the past year and getting satisfied customers flying. Although the horsepower is below the normal recommendation, when used with a dual impeller from Skat-Trak, this machine becomes hydro worthy. Since with all current conversions, the reverse system needs to be removed, the models of the GT 130 without reverse are an added plus. This makes the engine less complex, less parts and inter-related systems, which translates directly to lower service requirements. This entry level machine is rated at 130 horsepower and is “normally aspirated” meaning no supercharger. That being said, any machine from SeaDoo is a technical powerhouse. This is a very basic, entry level machine from Bombardier Recreational Products SeaDoo line. ![]()
