Yes, the more powerful the jet ski the better. A pole attachement of the back will probably make it easier. You can waterski behind pretty much anything - the mythbusters did it behind an rowing team.
In most States, the jet ski must be rated for three people and you must have an observer to notify the driver if the skier gets in trouble. In some States, mirrors can substitute for the observer, but this is extremely dangerous. The driver should be concentrating on driving and someone should be watching the skier at all times so they can alert the driver if the skier is in distress. The skier counts as an occupant.

Yes. In fact, astronaut Alan Poindexter was recently killed in a jet skiing accident. The most common types of serious jet ski accidents are a collision between two jet skis or a collision between a jet ski and a person in the water (often someone who just fell off another jet ski). Jet ski operators need to be aware of the most common types of accidents so they can avoid the conditions that make them possible. For example, a jet ski should never follow directly behind another jet ski. It's too easy to hit someone who falls off that jet ski or to ram that jet ski if it drops speed or spins suddenly.

Why does a jet ski pump water out the exhuast?
A jet ski pumps water out of the exhaust as part of its propulsion system. It uses a jet propulsion mechanism that draws water from the body of water, pressurizes it, and then expels it through the exhaust. This process not only creates thrust to propel the jet ski forward but also cools the engine by circulating water through it. The expelled water creates a visible spray, which is characteristic of jet ski operation.
