The concept of a self-propelled board by a motor is not new. There have been patents for over half a century, but it has only recently been fully implemented as a sport: The Jet Surf, which as its name suggests combines a surfboard with a propulsion motor (Jet) that operates thanks to the storage of electric energy.

Photo: Blessthisstuff- The ‘Pro Race’ is the fastest and most challenging professional board to ride. This board can reach speeds between 60 and 70 km/h on the water, only sport specialists can maneuver it because its control depends on a lot of technique and balance. In terms of price, it ranges between 9,000 and 12,000 dollars.
