'Water Jetting'

Has anybody here ever heard or seen this before??

It was such a beautiful day today that I decided to go down to St.Kilda beach for a very quick lunchtime visit, also being school holidays I thought that there was bounds to be something interesting happening.

I saw this most bizarre practise happening, 'Water Jetting' at least I think that's what it's called, I'd never seen or heard of it before. I was fascinated. There was a large tube hanging off a backpack (with a pump I assume) into the water with high pressure water sprays coming off your arms and feet. Hit the trigger and get propelled up out of the water. This guy was obliviously having lessons and could stay upright for about 5 or so seconds before splashing back into the ocean.

Looks like a fun thing to try, but I'd say it might be expensive also.

There was also a very cute little pirate on the beach which was the other shot I was tossing up on blipping.
