About the mechanical surfboard
The mechanical surfboard brings a surf simulator to your party or event. The rider climbs onto the surfboard-shaped platform and tries to stay on as the ride tilts and moves beneath them. A trained Jump About operator controls the speed from the ground, adjusting it to suit each rider's age and ability. Riders from 12 years through to adults can all have a go. The crowd watches. Everyone wants a turn.
The ride suits summer birthdays, beach-themed events, school fun days, and corporate team-building days. Because our operator runs the ride for the full hire, you do not need to supervise it yourself. Book it as the centrepiece of your event or pair it alongside other interactive games from our Games and Interactive range.

Why the mechanical surfboard is a hit
The mechanical surfboard stands out at any event because of the crowd factor. A jumping castle entertains the kids bouncing on it. The mechanical surfboard entertains the riders AND everyone watching. It works for mixed ages, which makes it ideal for school fetes, community days, and adult parties where the whole group needs something to get involved with. It is one of the few rides that gets a crowd gathering around it.
For surf and beach-themed parties, it is the obvious centrepiece. For corporate team-building events, it is the ride nobody wants to miss. Add it alongside a Bucking Bull hire, a Dunk Tank, or the Gladiator Duel for a full games zone that keeps guests busy for the whole event.
Safety and insurance
The mechanical surfboard is operated by a trained Jump About team member for the full hire. Our operator controls the speed and adjusts the difficulty to suit each rider. The ride sits on a large inflatable base that cushions any falls from the platform. Jump About carries public liability insurance for every hire. Riders should remove footwear and follow the operator's instructions before climbing on. Adults must supervise younger riders at all times. In poor weather conditions, we will contact you and reschedule if the ride cannot operate safely.
