Radinn Freeride Electric Jetboard

Propelled by a battery-powered jet pump that pushes water out behind it, an electric jetboard is a rider-controlled watercraft that carries the rider across the surface. Closest alternatives by price: YuJet Surfer Electric Bodyboard ($6,999).

Calm lakes, sheltered bays and permitted inland waterways suit a jetboard better than rough open water, where waves and chop make balance harder. Confirm the rider weight range, the throttle modes available and whether beginner limits can be set for early sessions.

It is currently the only Radinn product we list.
