Well I've got to say this was a great episode! I loved the unpredictability and the fact that we got to know the teams better. A lot of the teams that were invisible on the first episode were able to show more personality this episode.
And I personally am not too sad to see the twins eliminated. They were a nice team, but they just were just a little too whiny and seemed like something was going to take them out eventually anyway.
Jobby:
Bora Bora is amazing and beautiful! <3
Loved the Detour! The Roadblock may be a tad too easy? But then again, some teams struggled so maybe this has more to do with skill rather than perseverance!
Just on some of the teams:
Bates and Anthony, cocky, not interesting at all.
John and Jessica, cocky, not interesting at all.
Connor and Dave, cocky not interesting at all.
Joey and Meghan, so much more better this leg, moved up on my liking list than the three teams above.
Chuck and Wyona <3
Mona and Beth <3
Caroline and Jen <3
Max and Katie, loved how they stressed themselves and totally said the blondes will throw them under the bus and become overly suspicious, LOL.
Pam and Winnie... erm, stop whining. Just do the tasks.
Doctors... :hearts: for elimination. :lol3:
Chuck and Wyona, Mona and Beth, Caroline and Jen <3 I think none of them has a chance of winning but yay to all of them making F9! <3

I found some reactions about episode 2 from a jet ski/water craft blog at http://watercraftperformance.com/2013/02/26/video-jetpilot-featured-on-the-amazing-race/#. It was such a fair handed and unbiased commentary that I thought I'd pass it along for your enjoyment.
It’s almost not even worth mentioning how contrived and pedantic “unscripted” television is these days. And like most things, we have MTV to blame. It all started with the original “The Real World” and things spiraled out of control since then. Looking to get the most thrill, shock value and viewer empathy (or in many cases, couch rage), television producers have dreamed up more ways to brutalize, maim and torture their contestants short of recreating scenes from the “Saw” franchise on network television.
On the most recent episode of the inexplicably popular reality show, “The Amazing Race,” participants traveled to Bora Bora and hijinks ensue. Teams are out of sorts as they speed off to various locations speckled over the tropical landscape. Tempers are flared. Alliances are frayed. Bones are fractured. In one particular segment, teams are forced to participate in a physical challenges, forcing them to Pick a Pearl or Take a Trunk. According to the TV Guide recap, “After gaining their next clues, teams jet ski to Motu Tapu, the most photographed island in the South Pacific. I’ll trust the Amazing Race on this. The excitement over jet skiing is really amusing to me. I guess most of these peeps don’t live near an ocean or a great body of water. It’s like they’ve never seen a jet ski before.”
Seeing this as a great opportunity to get some visibility before a few million viewers, JetPilot happily supplied all of the riding gear for the hapless contestants who maneuvered their rental WaveRunners with the same grace and agility as a group of drunk 9-year-olds on bicycles (not that we endorse adolescent drinking). We love seeing companies break from the intimacy of our sport and reach a larger audience, and JetPilot is doing exactly that. Good work, guys!
