From the seasoned rider, to someone just getting their toes wet for the first time, the Mako Slingshot jet board offers a versatile and unforgettable powered surfing experience.90 MINS CRUISE34 MPH / 55 KPH20 KG / 44 LBSXT100 2-STROKEThat authentic surfboard feel Maximum manoeuvrability and control recreating the true experience of surfing, a feel that no other jet board delivers. The Mako Slingshot jet board captures that feeling of carving big flowing turns and driving rail to rail hacks even when the water is flat.
The carbon fibre hull has an authentic surfboard feel blending the characteristics of traditional surfboard design and modern performance. The outline is narrow at the nose and fuller through the tail, with extra width on the hip before the fins to increase planning efficiency and to help tighten those turns. The higher nose kick and wider hip opens up the transition point to the bottom curve optimising the connection with the water, offering stability and drive. Once up on your feet, you will start to feel the lift generated by the flat planes of the angled-V bottom, ensuring that you’re able to make some serious ground right from the start. The increase in tail rocker, and extension of the harder boxier rail length gives the Mako a lovely loose feeling, which is great for throwing down carving turns.
The tri-fin thruster setup has been a favourite for the past quarter century and combines speed, precision and control in a range of conditions. On the water this translates to greater manoeuvrability and stability so you can surf with complete confidence. Intuitive ControlThe ergonomic handheld throttle puts all the control right in the palm of your hand and acts as a safe, secure link between you and your Mako jet board. Engine ignition is at the touch of the conveniently placed button, simplifying the start-stop procedure both on land and when out on the water. Pull back Mako’s intuitive trigger control to accelerate with ease, propelling your jet board from leisurely cruise to pulse-pounding speeds in seconds.
Should you fall off or get separated from the board, the safety shut-off pin instantly stops the engine by cutting the ignition. Click, glug, ready to go...The value of your leisure time is inestimable. The Mako’s organised layout simplifies setup, increasing anticipation and enjoyment in the moment – so you spend more time on the water rather than left struggling on the beach. From the rapid re-fuelling, to the accessible plug-and-play battery pack, and the elimination of tools to secure the fins, Mako gets rid of unnecessary faff and focuses on putting the necessities at your fingertips, so your impulse to ride feels less like a chore.
