    Glad I attended our local boat show. I was not planning to attend this years boat show but I saw a commercial for the show and low-n-behold, I see the jet surfboard. I had to go and they had one left of the 2 they brought down. So I stopped by, as soon as I saw the craftsmanship of the build, and once the seller said it is made to travel with, I handed him my Amex before he could finish his sells pitch. Then they came to my house and gave me the full tutorial. Love the fact (as I was told) designed by a former F1 engineer. The design is very well thought out. I am no engineer but I can see a well thought out design when I see one. Should be a fun summer. Hopefully some more guys on here own them or at least tried them.

    How do you get out of the water from a start? I wake surf every chance I get. Someday I'll post a picture of my boards.

    I was told to start the motor with my hands on both grab rails near the front. But also have the throttle on the hand that will be forward. I am goofy so it would be my right hand.

    Once the motor starts you get up onto your belly. Then to your knees once you get to a steady speed. Then finally up to your feet. I am assuming that will be the trickiest to get down to put your feet in the "slippers" one at a time.

    If I recall, you have a new wake boat? The seller said this was deigned to surf behind a wake boat and on rough waves, such as in HI. I have seen videos of this and looks like a blast.

    I have 2 waverunners and 1 stand up. I would love to take these down to the beach but just too much work. This would be perfect as I can just walk out onto the beach, ride and walk back. If this is half as fun, I will buy 2 more for the kids.

    If you are interested, I can hook you up with the distributor for the States. Based out of NY. Great guys.

    I wonder what he means that it was designed to go behind a wake boat. Maybe he means the bare board was designed for a wake surf boat and then they added the engine. Yes, got the new Nautique almost a year ago.
