Testing Radinn Electric Jetboard | Review and first experience

- Опубликовано: 25 июл 2020
- I bought the Radinn electric surfboard a couple of weeks ago as a new "watertoy" for our summer home just south of Oslo in Norway. I made this video to share my user experience. I am not a sports fanatic. I am just a family guy who wanted to buy an electric surfboard. The board is really fantastic and easy to use. This video shows unboxing and the first try as well as the following 3 days. I made this review since I wanted to share my experience on the electric jetboard.
Disclaimer: I am a regular customer and this video is not sponsored.
This video is just perfect : not pretentious seller's arguments, true experiment in progress giving insights of the manoeuvrability and the little kickstart to be caring about at first. Very gratefull to you for this video and wishing your whole family all the best :))
Just wanted to say thanks for sharing your Radinn experience. I'm split between the Radinn and Awake boards, still pondering which one to buy! :-0 ..there are a couple of sourpusses in the comments below, don't let them put you off posting upbeat vids like this! cheers 🤙🏼✨
Indeed super fun playing water on jetboard
Great video. Thanks for sharing :)
Hava itekli Motor (Batarya), ve uzakdan kumandalı.

I imagine that this device and similar, because of the weight, are not the sort of things you'll be securing by cord loop to your ankle. So, safe use is "Millpond" aka flat-as-you-hat conditions only ?
Hi Jon. Great reviews and videos you've done. Thanks, and congratulations. I've looked at many different makes on-line, and the Radinn is my favorite, but like others here, I really can't afford one. There are many do-it-yourself videos, too, so I'd like to try a do-it-yourself, and model it on the Radinn. Would you be able to tell me any specifications, such as the battery voltage, diameter of the impeller jet, or anything like that ? Thanks, in advance, and enjoy !
DIY won’t get you the same performance and feeling of the Radinn. To get it up to standards you might end up paying more and spending a lot of time.
In stead of trying to build a replica why don’t you look for a used board? There might be some used boards for sale out there?
Hi Jon, thanks for your quick reply. I've tried looking for used Radinn boards, but I can't find one at all in my country (Canada), and haven't heard of anyone buying a new one here yet. Buying a new one (Freeride base model), with tax and shipping would cost me the equivalent of about 10,700 EUR. There are several do-it-yourself boards that would be "good enough" for me, and are reported to cost about 1/3 of a Radinn board. I simply wanted to start with the Radinn specs as my goal, knowing I'll fall short, but it should still be good enough. There's one DIY board that seems to exceed the performance of the Radinn, here: ruclips.net/video/BuYz4YYcX30/видео.html The most common DIY mistake seems to be that the first attempts try to make it with cheap or undersized components, and then they have to spend even more money to upsize or replace burned out components. By learning what Radinn uses, I'm hoping to size the jet and batteries properly the first time. So, is that a "no" to telling us here, some of the Radinn specifications ? Thanks.
Legal muito interessante é forma muito boa para se divertir parabéns.
I just went on their website to order one after seeing your fun video. So glad to see they deliver to Canada. Btw, how long did you have to wait to get your board?
I ordered my board mid season last year and it took about 5 weeks. I have no idea what their delivery time is now. I suggest sending an email to sales support.
@@jonmrk6831 Thank you. I just found a dealer for Radinn in Toronto, Canada. Don’t have to worry about delivering time anymore since it’s local.
@@soulmate805 Thats great 🏄♂️
@@soulmate805 I am in the GTA as well....what dealer ? Did you get yours yet ? I am curious to know how well you can carve on it. Thanks
Great video! How well can you carve at speed ? I am curious as to how much control you have at steering, compared to a regular surf board.
This depends on the model. I purchased a second board model:Freeride which is much better at making turns than the entry level board.
@@jonmrk6831 good to know. I am definitely interested! Your review has definitely ignited a curiosity. Thanks for the taking the time to respond and offer your feedback.
Thank you so much I really like it and where I can buy this? and how Much the price?
You can buy at www.radinn.com
I received my board last week and get the battery pack delivered today! Can't wait! (Freeride, pro, extended)
Wasted System Hey. How was your first ride ? 🏄♂️
@@jonmrk6831 We had a wonderful first weekend on the lake! Kids were terrified at first (7 & 10) but after a few laps with me on it with them -- they loved it. They practiced standing as I hung off the back to keep it slow. Couldn't have gone better.
What is this battery are using charging time both ?
Great Video. Does Anyone know if the hul`s are interchangable? ie Can you put the same battery and motor in both the Carve and the Freeride Hul`s?
Yes. I just upgraded my board and will move the jet and the battery over to the new board. I will make a new video about this as soon as the weather is warmer.
Me encanta, en cuanto pueda me compro una, ya e visto un modelo lampuga, me cuesta de ocacion 6000 euros, me encanta esta disciplina, voy a crear unos vídeos estupendos jajaja ❤❤❤
Thank you for sharing radinn experience! What riding time are you getting? Is it a new model or from last year?
I´m currently on the Explore and as I understand it that is Radinns first model but I have the new G3 jetpack and the new battery.
Ride time is about 35 minutes until it vibrates as a signal
Last week I went on a trip riding 8 nautical miles and I still had 20% juice left.
@@jonmrk6831 thank you!
How did you receive your board ??? I placed my order 2 months ago and still hasn't been shipped .
al you I received by truck. Shipping was a bit delayed, also a hold-up in customs. Once it shipped I had it within a week. Arrived on a delivery truck. To packages. Very nicely packaged and proffesional instructions. I am still waiting for my second board.
Hi Jon. Are you still having fun with your surf 8 months later?
I was wondering about the weight? Isn t it too heavy to carry on ? Is your daughter able to carry it by her own?
I have not been able to surf due to winter with snow/ice. I plan on starting the season next week. The board with battery inside is a bit heavy, but still my daughter can carry. If it gets to heavy you can carry the board and the battery separately.
I live next to the sea in the North of France and from the car park to the water there s a little bit of sandy beach to go by!! So that s why I was asking the question.
@@MidlifeJack The board comes with a carrying bag with wheels. You can drag the board from your car to the beach using the bag. If its sandy all the way I would consider a trolly, just to increase the pleasure. You can carry it all the way but you should consider it an exercise. 😀
@@jonmrk6831 Thanks for the answer Jon. There s no picture of the bag on the website. I didnt know that!!
51 ! .....good Look 😉
Hi, how is your experience with this board?
I am looking to buy one for myself. Any recommendations of after using yours ?
I am very happy. Had it for 1,5 years. Used it for two seasons. Lots of fun 2nd season also. I would go for the freeride board.
Is this really 190cm? It does not seem to be that long on the video.
I am trying to figure out if it would fit into the trunk of a sedan with the seats folded
I have fitted two boards into my Volvo XC40 (small suv) as well as one board in a small Toyota. I had to fold the back seats as well as pull the passenger seat all the way forward in the Toyota.
nice 👌
@pro.kayak 👍
Nice toy, but too expensive for me😭 nice vid' enjoy👍🏼🇫🇷
How much it cost?
Awaken Souls hello, it's dépend for few options. I Know this kind of toy cost betwen 6000 to 11000€.
Hello! What model is this one? Im thinking about buying one. Thanks!!
Model: Explorer. See radinn.com
That looks like so much fun!!! Are you playing in a lake?
No its on the ocean. Its a bay area.
Pretty cool. Where did you buy it from ? Link ?
Radinn.com
what happens in Salt Water ? will it have to be registered with the State?
Michael Kastner I have no idea about your country, sorry.
Hei, ser kjempe morsomt ut! Hvordan ble det med toll/moms for å di in i Norge?
Det blir jo lagt til moms inn til Norge men Radinn selger til deg uten moms. Jeg ville chattet med salgsavdelingen på websiden.
@@jonmrk6831 har tagit kontakt med dom nu😀👍🏽
How long does the charge last? Thanks great video
Charging takes 3-4 hours.
@@jonmrk6831 thanks and then approximately how many hours does it last? On the water?
@@johnk12345100 about 40 mins
Hey Jon, its been almost two years since u bought it. Are you still happy with it? Has it presented any issues?
I am still super happy with my purchase. The boards are working great. I am looking forward to the season. I have purchased a new board and will transfer jetpack and bsttery to the new board from the first board. A great way to upgrade. I will soon make an updated video about this as I enter into my third season as a radinn/surfing entusiast. Waiting for the sea water temperature to increase a bit.
@@jonmrk6831 great to know this electric surfboard... how much you paid for it? Are these availablenin the usa? Thanks
@@garry1220able You can buy through resellers in the USA as well as radinn.com
hI jon, I am interested in the surfboard. but i am having trouble to compare the brand ,there are serveral brands in the market,.
jetsurf,
radinn
yusurf.
do you know this brand, would you provide me any advices?
Hi. I only have experience with Radinn so I cannot compare. I can say that I am very happy with Radinn, both product and service. I am getting ready for my third season and I bought my third board. I will move the jetpack and my battery over from my first board. Thats a great way to upgrade the board and reuse battery and jetpack. I will put out a video as soon as the weather is better.
If they could just put solar chargers on top Thea board I’d give it an a++ but a+ all day look awesome !!
do you go on easy or standard or pro mode? and what engine do you have, standard or the pro?
I have the PRO setting and can change the modes but I usually only use the PRO mode. Nice feature though that one can downgrade the power if needed.
@@jonmrk6831 yes, i am asking because i just bought freeride version with biggest enginge and struggling to get up standing to the board. Standard mode was not slow enough, i think i will try standing in the easy mode.
@@AlexUncut Easy mode is best for learning. Plus you have to go easy on the remote control and hold remote steady at slow speed.
Now let’s see it at Jaws
What’s the weight limit on these ? I’m 100 kg 6”2 will it hold me ?
I am not sure about this, but I think so. I would ask the sales staff at Radinn.
How long is it's battery life?
As well as the price, please
The battery life is about 35 mins, but I usually stop while there is 20% left of the battery. For pricing see: www.radinn.com
@@jonmrk6831 He asked how much yours cost. Thanks
They start at $8400. US
Yep, a little pricey- definitely a luxury water toy
That's with standard drive and battery, and charger.
Upgrades available for drive, battery and charger.
where did you bought it?
Online from radinn.com
Kimat kitna hoga
Looks great until you need to pay 11k+ for it. Once the price comes down to 3k or so it’ll be a success.
How much are this bords ???
Check out: www.radinn.com/
Hello dear friend how are you this is available for Pakistan what is this price in Pakistan all clear with delivery charges

How much it cost please?
Eur 7900. See radinn.com
supert
Awesome video! We should collab. I’m over in the USA, how about you??
How much are they
You can read about product and pricing at radinn.com
Is it really worth 9k ?????
Michael Kastner Yes I would say so. I wish it was cheaper, but compared to a waverunner or wake boarding I would much rather own and ride this board. Fast setup, low maintenance, easy to learn and lots of fun for family and friends.
Of course its not worth that much unless you have piles of money laying around with nowhere to go. These things are just getting started, they should easily come down 50% + when they become widespread. There's not much to them, big paddleboard, battery, motor, propulsor, hand controller.
Look for new fun thing
Its a great product. Lots of fun.
I wanted one, but then saw the price tag.
Yes its expensive, but its a lot of fun. Compared to a jetski I would choose the jetboard.
For the price you could buy a nice jet ski and ride all day. For 30 minutes, you would have to be crazy to pay that kind of money. there is a sucker born everday though
@@jonmrk6831 I just got the icebreaker and my son and I tried it for the first time today. A lot of fun but I’m not sure we configured it properly. It seemed slow to me. Certainly not 25mph. I weigh 200lbs. Do you have the pro jet pack or standard jet pack? Also could you please post a video how to clean it use the water bottle to clean the jet. I couldn’t figure it out. Thx!
Nice, but too expensive compared to jetski .
But its more fun than jetski and less hassle to own. By more fun I mean the experience and challenge for the body (mastery). Jetski is fun also but mostly based on speed.
Must be an arm and a leg .... miss wind surfing ...
Adopt me
For that price I’d be better off building one myself 👋
Its expensive but its a lot of technology going into this board. I am sure the pricing will come down over time. Personally I would much rather own this board than owning a jetski or a boat which I need to handle, transport, maintain and pay for storage. The board is just «plug and play» if you see the difference. I could wait for the board to become cheaper but I will become older. I’d rather play now in my early 50’s while I can if you know what I mean. I dont know your age but I hope you will find the budget for buying one at some time in your life. Its a lot of fun.
