JetSurf Laird

Let’s face it, getting famous people to use your products costs money, and in some cases, hundreds of millions, but American big wave surfer, Laird Hamilton, decided to take a JetSurf out for a spin.

“The carbon fiber constructed board can reach speeds of up to 40 miles per hour, and has a fuel tank capacity that offers up around 45 miles, giving you a solid hour and a half of fun out on the water.
