First thought was snowmobilies skipping. I can't believe quads are doing it too!

You know that all kinds of people will be trying that now!! Good for the LHS I guess.

That's a cool video!

I tried it with a brushless Baja 5T. I didn't work so well. All I saw were some flashes under water and then some fish came floating up...

The local hobby shop thought that I may have voided the warranty.
