Awake Board Lesson

If you’re craving a water adventure that combines speed, skill, and a touch of tech, the Awake Board Lesson in Mallorca offers an exciting way to try electric jetboarding. Situated in the gorgeous Balearic Islands, this experience promises both beginner-friendly instruction and options for more seasoned riders. With expert guides, top-notch equipment, and scenic coastal spots, it’s an activity that can appeal whether you’re new to water sports or eager to refine your skills.

One of the standout aspects we love about this tour is its highly personalized approach. Limited to just two participants per session and offering instruction in English, German, and Spanish, it feels more like a private coaching session than a standard tour. Plus, the chance to choose between RÄVIK 3 (great for those just starting out or families) and the RÄVIK S (powerful and challenging for advanced riders) ensures that everyone gets a tailored experience.

However, a potential consideration is the price point—at $612 per group, it’s a premium experience, which might be steep for some travelers. Still, for those who value quality instruction, safety, and the thrill of flying over water on an electric surfboard, it offers good value. This experience suits adventure seekers, tech enthusiasts, or anyone looking for a unique, high-energy activity during their Mallorca trip.

What is the Awake Board Lesson?

This experience is a carefully guided lesson on electric jetboarding, designed to introduce you to this exhilarating water sport quickly and safely. The two-hour sessions are structured to help you get comfortable with the jetboard’s controls while enjoying the stunning scenery of Mallorca’s beaches.

Starting from the beaches of Portals or Port Adriano, you’ll first receive a thorough introduction to the features of the Awake jetboards, as well as safety protocols—which are crucial for a sport that’s as fun as it is fast. Once you’re familiar with the basics, the instructor will take you out onto the water for hands-on practice.

The instructors are fluent in English, German, and Spanish, ensuring clear communication and tailored guidance. They’ll be by your side during the water session, offering real-time feedback and tips to help you master the controls. As one reviewer noted, “The instructors were very patient and helpful, making sure everyone felt confident before hitting the water.”

The Equipment and Options

One of the appealing features of this experience is the choice of equipment models. The RÄVIK 3 is designed for beginners and families, offering versatility and ease of use. It’s perfect if you’re new to jetboarding or want a relaxed ride with fewer worries about power. Conversely, the RÄVIK S is the most powerful model available, crafted for those wanting to push their limits and challenge themselves.

This variety means you can choose a board that matches your skill level and comfort zone. Many reviewers appreciated having this option, especially as one commented, “I loved the ability to upgrade to the more advanced board after feeling confident on the beginner model.”

What To Expect During the Session

The experience kicks off with a comprehensive introduction to the jetboard, safety gear, and riding techniques. Expect to spend about 30 minutes on land familiarizing yourself with the equipment, safety protocols, and basic maneuvers. This is essential, especially for those new to eSurfing.

Once everyone feels prepared, the instructor guides you into the water. The hands-on practice period lasts approximately 1.5 hours, during which you’ll learn how to balance, accelerate, and maneuver the board. The small group size (up to two participants) ensures plenty of personalized attention.

What makes this activity stand out is its focus on building confidence. One participant shared, “The instructor was very attentive, and I quickly felt comfortable riding the board. It’s surprisingly intuitive once you get the hang of it.” The thrill of gliding over water, performing small tricks or just cruising at speed, is an adrenaline rush that’s hard to beat.

The Scenic Setting and Safety

Starting from Portals or Port Adriano, you’ll enjoy some of the most beautiful coastal views Mallorca has to offer. The beaches are calm, protected, and perfect for learning to ride a jetboard. The instructor will always prioritize safety, providing protective gear (helmet and impact vest) included in the price.

Reviewers appreciated the professionalism of the guides, noting that safety was never compromised. The small group format means that everyone receives full attention, and the personal trainer ensures you’re riding confidently before heading back to shore.

Price and Value

At $612 for a group of up to two people, this is an investment in a premium water sport experience. When you consider that equipment rental, instruction, safety gear, and personalized coaching are all included, the price reflects a high-quality, tailored experience.

While it’s more expensive than some other water activities, the value lies in the expert guidance, scenic locations, and the chance to learn a cutting-edge sport with top-tier equipment. For many, the thrill of flying over water on an electric surfboard is worth splurging on.
