The Blea Electric Surfboard recently made its debut on Kickstarter, introduced as an ultra-affordable, high-performance, beginner-friendly e-surfboard that can be used without the perfect wave. The e-surfboard has the potential to be used in everything from pools to large bodies of water, but with much less of a learning curve than it usually takes to master the waves. In fact, the creators of Blea note that with their innovation, "anyone can master the ocean in five minutes."
The lightweight, electric surfboard boasts a top speed of 30 mph and a 1.5-hour battery that can be swapped out for extended time on the water.
Thanks to the support of just a handful of backers, Blea has already exceeded its initial crowdfunding goal with dozens of days still remaining on its campaign.
