Watch on YouTube ↗ · JETSURF USA — new owner series #16 (titled "power modes on JETSURF Electric" on YouTube; the video covers the electric skateboard remote). Timestamps below follow the video's on-screen counter (0:32–0:55).

This is the JETSURF electric skateboard, not the surfboard. The sequence is the same for both the Yacht and the Race skateboards, and it all happens on the remote.

Steps

0:32 — With the board already on, wake the remote: push and hold the on/off button for about a second.
0:40 — The display comes up showing the battery level of both the board and the remote.
0:48 — Press the large button to cycle the speed mode — 1 → 2 → 3 and back around.

Tip: the mode carries over from last time, so glance at the display before you push off. Start in mode 1 on a new board or an unfamiliar surface.

Caution: change modes while stopped, not mid-ride — a jump from mode 1 to mode 3 under power is a sharp change in response. Wear your protective gear.
