When is too crazy over the line?

one question I'd like to know... is it that important to ensure that you turn off the throttle when you get "air"? I've heard the engines can over-rev in the air and its not good to be suddenly slowed down...

I see this as being the biggest issue with a supercharged 4tec... compression stroke and the charger itself, but I don't really recall if its necessary with the older 2 stroke rotax

isn't the MPEM rev-limiting the engine anyhow? (I mean will the coil fire higher than 6500/6800 rpm?)

also I don't ever recall people doing this on the older Seadoo PWCs themselves

You can get airborne unexpectedly, and it happens quickly, so doubt you have time to throttle down. There's a rev limit programmed into the ignition to avoid damage but keep in mind revving a worn engine high can push it over the edge.

The 4-tec has a clutch on the SC to avoid building too much cylinder pressure during high revving, it's probably necessary?
