How much do electric surfboards weigh?

Dec 04, 2024

Electric surfboards generally weigh between 20 kg and 40 kg (44–88 lbs), including the battery. The exact weight depends on the model, materials, and battery size. Here's a breakdown:


Key Factors Influencing Weight:


Battery Size:

Batteries are one of the heaviest components, often weighing 8–15 kg (18–33 lbs).

Larger batteries provide longer runtime but add significant weight.


Board Materials:

Carbon Fibre: Lightweight and durable but more expensive.

Fibreglass or Composite Materials: Slightly heavier but more affordable.


Motor and Components:

High-powered motors and additional features like cooling systems can add weight.


Examples of Weights by Type:


Lightweight Boards (20–25 kg):

Smaller boards or those with smaller batteries, ideal for portability and shorter sessions.


Mid-Range Boards (25–30 kg):

A balance of power, range, and weight, suitable for most riders.


Heavy-Duty Boards (30–40 kg):

High-performance models with larger batteries for extended use or extreme speeds.


For heavier boards, you can grab a sand trolley (pictured) to help you move your board from your car to the water.
