Revolutionary Self-Inflating Jet-Powered Paddleboard Takes Watersports to New Heights

Slovenian entrepreneur Sebastjan Sitar founded SipaBoards in 2016 and created the world's first jet-propelled, self-inflating paddleboard. The Sipa Drive All-Rounder is the latest e-SUP model, featuring a fully integrated jet engine powered by dual batteries that last up to six hours. The board can reach up to 4.3 miles per hour on the water and comes with a Bluetooth smart paddle that acts as a remote for the motor. SipaBoards' electric models are now available in 38 markets worldwide, starting at €3,025 (about $3,260).
