Jetsurf electric is a completely new water experience. Something that has never happened before! As someone who has been working with various types of water sports for years – including: flyboard, wakeboard, fliteboard, jetpack – I can say with full certainty that jetsurf electric is a real revolution. And I do not mean the undoubted advantages of this attraction, i.e. quiet engine operation or lack of exhaust emissions, but the emotions that accompany it. It is a completely new way of contact with water, breaking barriers without stress and with a smile on your face.
For many people, it is still new, so I decided to share what the first ride on jetsurf electric really looks like, step by step.

On the shore? A short briefing and first surprises
When a customer shows up on site, they are usually excited, but also a little tense. The board looks modern, even futuristic, and at the same time a bit intimidating. This is where our role begins. We approach, explain, show.
Jetsurf electric does not require any previous experience. It is not a wakeboard or surfing, but a board that responds to your body and movements in an intuitive way. Each participant receives a short training from us. We discuss body position, acceleration, balance and safety rules. Many customers are surprised by the fact that the entire board is operated remotely – by a remote control in your hand. No cables, no exhaust fumes, no delayed reactions. Just you, the water and technology.
Water. first contact and (literally) immersion in a new world
Most often, it is the moment of entering the water that is the most important. After putting on a safety vest and helmet, the customer stands in the water next to the board. I often hear the question: “Will it really go by itself?”. Here is what usually happens next:
- The first moments on the stomach in a lying position, we learn to react to the controls and adjust the pressure on the gas.
- Moving to the knees – many people feel more confident in this position. This is the moment when they really start to feel the board and its stability.
- Getting on your feet – this is where your heart beats faster. But… it’s surprisingly easy. Jetsurf electric has a perfectly balanced center of gravity and responds smoothly to every movement.
- The first full ride and this is where the magic begins.
At this point, I usually hear laughter, screams of joy and slogans like “This is brilliant!” And that’s exactly the point – Jetsurf electric has no entry threshold.
Emotions that can’t be trained
Jetsurf electric works on emotions. When you first stand on the water and glide across the surface in silence, without exhaust fumes and without the roar of the engine, you feel something very primal. Freedom that comes with control. Joy that is not spoiled by fear. You have full control over the ride, and at the same time you are in absolute contact with nature.
After a dozen or so minutes of riding, participants usually don’t want to come back. But we finish the session and talk. This is an important part of the whole experience. We discuss what went well, what can be improved, how the body posture and sense of balance are changing. Customers often ask about the next levels of advancement, about the possibility of organizing an event or learning tricks. This is also the moment when the jetsurf electric is no longer a curiosity, but becomes a passion.
A change in perspective and perception of water sports
The jetsurf electric has changed our approach to water sports. It is equipment that gives maximum excitement with minimum stress. It is addictive, but not frightening. It arouses passion in both 15-year-olds and 50-year-olds. If you are wondering whether this is something for you – the answer is simple: try it. You do not need experience. Curiosity is enough. We will take care of the rest.
