Now available in the UK, the Jetboard is the culmination of ten years research and development by manufacturers, Powerski International.

A cross between a high-performance surfboard and a competition waterski/wakeboard, the craft is fitted with a 330cc single cylinder two-stroke engine, which will push it along at speeds of up to 40mph.

The Jetboard’s design puts its centre of gravity under the rider’s feet, rather than behind or in front of the ride as is usual. For high-speed planing and turning, twin hydrosteps under the hull put the pivot point immediately beneath the rider.

UK importers of the Powerski Jetboard are Seascape Marine of Southampton, who are currently in the process of setting up a nationwide dealer network.
