Seakeeper Ride and its VACS technology eliminates pitch and roll, creates the perfect running angle and responds instantaneously to changing conditions. Being banged around by heavy machinery is nothing new, so we brought in a group of grizzled testers with experience in harsh, intense, bumpy rides to try it out and share their feedback, and tell us if Ride is a helluva ride.

00:07 The Badasses Test featuring Sea Keeper Ride
00:22 Objective, have badasses experience Sea Keeper Ride
00:26 and record the results. Product overview
00:30 Sea Keeper Ride is the vessel attitude control system that eliminates up to 70%
00:34 of pitch and roll while underway
00:36 Yup, it's by the same geniuses who created the game-changing gyro stabilizer
00:41 Inspired by advanced aerospace technology Sea Keeper Ride makes
00:45 100 adjustments per second for better performance, more comfort,
00:49 and a smooth ride. Our test subjects are
00:52 experts at rough rides. The Stock Car Driver
00:57 It's definitely a very physically and mentally demanding sport
01:00 I went straight into the wall head-on, definitely had some bumps and bruises
01:04 The Bull Rider. Horn in the jaw, bleeding,
01:07 bruised up, broken collarbones, ankles, knees
01:11 The Mega Yacht Captain. Really heavy charter vessel so we're out and about in the seas
01:16 all the time. You can imagine that I've run into some pretty precarious storms
01:21 The Monster Truck Driver. 10,000 pound
01:24 beasts. We're gonna jump them 30-35 feet in the air and they don't land soft
01:28 at all and you're hitting that at 25 miles an hour and you're
01:31 flipping the truck 35 feet in the air and you're landing, we take bumps and bruises
01:35 Initiate test sequence
01:42 (music)
01:49 Crazy out there and you can feel it grounding you into the water deeper
01:54 rather than levitating you out of your seat. If I could put it on a bull I can tell you right now
02:00 I'd be on every one, I would never get third off, it's just that smooth
02:03 As soon as we turned on the Sea Keeper Ride technology
02:07 everything just flattened right out. The product was amazing we started out
02:11 with it off, we're beating and bumping around all of a sudden
02:14 flip the switch it's a complete change. There's
02:18 waves coming up that you're getting ready to brace yourself for and you don't need to
02:21 As much as I love this product and would love to have it, it will not work on a Monster Truck
02:25 unfortunately
02:26 The results are in. It's a hell of a ride
