Shortest path to higher jumps
All in with the Board mount
The Board mount is an amazing way of enjoying the Surfr App. We think the board mount is perfect for beginner to intermediate riders. To them the board mount offers a way to quickly learn and improve and to start jumping higher. If you are an advanced or PRO riders doing board-offs and more, a board mount might bother your actions and you probably will prefer the Watch or Pouch/Wetsuit mode.
Let's list up some of the key features of the board mount:
- Level: Best for beginners to intermediate riders that want to learn how to jump higher
- Investment: 69€ as a one-time payment to get your hands on the board mount
- Display: Biggest display possible on your board
- Free: Session tracking 100% FREE
- Available PRO features: personal insights, jump insights, on-board coaching and multiplayer
- Board edging tracking: This is very important to learn to jump higher and is only available with a Board mount and Surfr PRO
Quick, easy while supporting almost all features
Watch out for getting blown away
Everybody that tried a watch consistently confirms that this is one of the most amazing ways to take Surfr on the water. Having a display on your wrist and getting direct feedback on your riding is a very fun and educational experience. Let's sum up of the key charastaristics of the watch experience:
- Level: Suitable for all riding levels
- Investment: Requires a one-time watch investment of around 200-300€ . Also requires Surfr PRO 3.75 €/$ per month in case of an annual subscription
- Display: Live display on your wrist
- Available PRO features: Personal insights, Jump insights. Additionally on-board coaching and multiplayer (eSim) will soon be available Q3 / Q4 2023
- Not available PRO feature: board edging (see Board mount)
- Requires a good wristband for your watch to avoid losing it.
- Recommended to everyone that has a watch but is now using wetsuit/pouch mode
Just take the device you already have
Pouch/Wetsuit
If you don't have a watch and you don't want anything on your board, there is one more option. Just put your phone in a waterproof pouch and take it with you on the water. This option works best in countries where you wear a wetsuit. If you are just kiting in your shorts or bikini's pouch mode is not recommended because the phone will bounce round on your neck. If you use a tight impact vest it can also work well, since you can fit the pouch either in your impact vest or in your wetsuit.
- Level: Suitable for all riding levels
- Display: No display but live height based on spoken text. This might be harder to hear depending on conditions
- Investment: Session tracking 100% FREE, in case you don’t want to use your own phone you can buy one for approx. 130-140 €
- Available PRO features: Personal insights, Jump Insights
- Not available PRO features: no onboard-coaching, no multiplayer (you can join a multiplayer, but you will not get feedback because there is no display)
- Only investment you need to do is buying a good waterproof pouch, that we sell right here.
- In case you don’t want to take any risk we recommend using a waterproof or spare phone.
The phone/wetsuit experience is definitely less exiting than the Board Mount or Watch experience. It's a cheap/fast way to get started, but if you want to kickstart your progression and have the maximum fun we recommend either the Board mount or a Watch for the full experience.
