Operator was riding a 2012 SkiDoo, IA registration applied for and owned by his father.  Operator was operating the PWC in the bay, east of Stoney Point on East Okoboji Lake.  Operator saw a large wake that was created by a large boat and decided to jump it.  Upon reaching the wake, Operator realized the wake was far larger than he had thought, so he hit the break.  This action launched him over the handlebars, at an angle in front of the PWC.  Operator had been traveling at 50 mph.  The lanyard was attached and activated the kill switch.  Once Operator hit the water, he felt down his right leg and felt a lump on his shin, thought his leg was broken and did not attempt to climb back aboard the PWC.  He was assisted by the Arnolds Park/Okoboji Fire & Rescue boat and the DNR Lake Patrol.  Operator was wearing his PFD.
