YuJet's first electric surfboard caused a considerable stir back in 2020 due to the tantalizing promise of combining the style and panache of a surfboard with the power of a motor-operated water ski, but the Florida-based company is now looking to take things to the next level with the advent of the 'Surfer XT,' an all-new electric surfboard that offers a higher degree of ruggedness.
The 'Surfer XT' electric surfboard makes use of a carbon fiber structure that features durability-focused additions such as a front bumper and rotational molding to enable the board to take more punishment. Equipped with a waterproof lithium-ion battery, this electric surfboard can achieve a top speed of 38.6 km/h.
Available for just under $10,000, this electric surfboard also comes with an action camera mount, making it easier than ever for you to go about capturing and sharing your water-borne adventures.
