Awake Boards is a Swedish manufacturer of electric surfboards. The E-SURFER team has been a dealer of Awake's eFoils and Jetboards for years.
Awake founder and wakeboarder Philip Werner has been experimenting with electrically powered surfboards since 2012.
After co-founding the company Radinn, he launched Awake Boards in 2017. His goal was to create jetboards of the highest quality with outstanding riding characteristics.
Since 2022, the company has also been producing the Vinga eFoils in addition to the Rävik Jetboards. E-SURFER has been meeting the team from Sweden every year since 2018 for interviews and product demonstrations.
The following video for the E-SURFER Youtube channel was recorded at the German premiere of the Vinga eFoils in front of our shop in Berlin:
In particular, Awake Boards has established itself as the market leader in jetboards (electric surfboards that ride on the water surface) in recent years.
The design, quality and performance of the two jet board models, Rävik 3 and Rävik S, are truly outstanding. The special jet propulsion from Awake Boards is the secret of its power. Unlike other electric surfboards, which draw in water from above, the Awake jet propulsion is mounted perpendicular to the water surface.
This prevents the suction of air, which can lead to interruptions.
The Awake Rävik 3 costs about 16,000 EUR incl. 19% VAT. If you take the large battery and the optional board bag you are at 19,000 EUR.
Interestingly, the founder of Radinn (Philip Werner) left Radinn to subsequently found Awake Boards. Since Philip is very talented, Radinn boards can be ridden very well. However, he left the company because Radinn investors allegedly wanted to cut production costs. In fact, you can see and compare the two brands right next to each other in our store. The quality of the Awake boards is a lot better.
The Awake Jetboards reach speeds of up to 55 km/h. The Vinga eFoil up to 50 km/h.
Depending on the battery size, the Awake jetboards weigh between 48 and 53 kg.
Between 20 and 40 minutes, depending on the battery size. The rider's weight and the speed have an influence on the range.
The manufacturer states a maximum weight of 120 kg for the jet-board rider.
That depends on various factors. The E-SURFER team will be happy to advise you.
You can buy the boards from us in our shop in Berlin or from our online jetboard shop.
