P1 and P2 were the operators of both jet ski's. Both had left Rock Island State Park , with P3 a passenger on the Jet Ski with P2 (V1). P1 was the operator of V2. They had both been riding in circles and "playing" on the PWC's when V1 came to a stop. The circles they had been riding in had created some large wakes and as V2 came back to where V1 had stopped, the PWC's were "bobbing" up and down on the large wakes. As V2 approached V1 on one of these large wakes, the operator of V2 said that he accidentally hit the throttle as V1 dipped own in the wake and V2 was angled or cresting upwards.
