- Check the connections of your electric board carefully.

To start, you have to choose a spacious environment!
When you are going to ride, for the first time, on an electric board, it is really important to choose a spacious environment. Note also that for your safety, but also that of others, it is preferable to reserve a space of at least 100 meters between you and the other athletes. So, in case of trouble, you do not risk colliding with another person and you will therefore avoid many accidents.
It is important to pay attention to the various obstacles that may be in your way. Indeed, shallow reefs, jetties, debris or even sandbars can be really dangerous.
Know how to understand the electric board step by step!
When you start electric surfing, it is really important to correctly understand the board in question. Here’s what you need to remember:
- Before activating the motor, you will have to lie down on the board, arms forward. – First start with a low speed. This will allow you to understand the board and master it little by little.
- Once you feel ready, you will need to kneel on the board. Don’t be in a hurry. Once on your knees, the board will stabilize at 15 km/h.
- At this point, you can easily stand up. You will need to take the time to get up.
Learn how to fall in electric surf to avoid injuries!
If you want to avoid injuries, it is really important to learn how to fall in electric surfing. Here are some tips that should definitely help you deal with falls:
- If you feel that you are losing your balance, it is important to fall to the side in order to avoid your board subject to inertia and therefore still in motion even when the engine is switched off.
