The board is controlled via a built-in touchpad.
Most electric surfboards let you control their motor via a squeeze throttle or handheld remote. On Jetson’s board, it’s controlled by a waterproof touchpad integrated into the top deck. From the pad, you can select one of four surf modes: Take Off/Boost , Impact Zone , Paddle Out and Eco Mode . Select a mode, stand up and you’re ready to go.
Aside from the touchpad and motor, Jetson’s board looks like any other surfboard. It’s made from epoxy resin, has four detachable fins and. is available in three different sizes depending on your height and ability. There’s a 6-foot, 8-inch short board, a 8-foot “fun shape” and a 9-foot longboard. Each model comes with a charger to keep the board’s integrated lithium-ion battery fully juiced, too., which has already reached its funding goal.
