A blog posted on the Radinn website, covers the pros to winter surfing. Most of us know that winter is the best time because it thins the crowds on the southeast coast in the USA. However, with the winter gear getting increasingly better, those uncrowded days are hard to come by. Still, winter riding does come with fewer crowds and less boats in the water.
When you’re on a jetboard, that makes the day so much better. You can really let loose without the worry of a lot of traffic on the water.
Winter riding is also great way to stave off those winter blues. Find a body of water that isn’t frozen and get outside and start ripping!
If you’re near the east coast, and feel confident in your skills, get out there and see what a Nor’easter is all about. When in doubt, don’t go out.
Also, make sure you have the proper winter surfing gear. We need booties, gloves, hoods, and 3/2, 4/3, and even 6mm fullsuits in the northeast and some areas on the west coast.
Hit your local shop and let them help you pick the winter surfing gear you need. As for your Radinn electric jetboard, the crew recommends the Carve for fall and winter riding.
It is a high-performance model and is designed to take on almost anything. It handles well in big chop and is lightweight and responsive, allowing to ride rail to rail.
It comes with footstraps so you can lock in and go! The jetpack sits deeper in the water, making for decreased buoyancy, meaning that air can’t enter the waterjet, so you won’t lose power. Check out the Radinn website for all the info on their jetboards and start building your quiver.
