The Yamaha SuperJet has been a firm favourite in the stand-up jet sector for decades. Who the Waverunner is suitable for and what features it has to offer

The model has established itself as an uncompromising piece of sports equipment for riders looking for maximum control and manoeuvrability. Unlike the seated Waverunner, the SuperJet has a standing design - this requires technique, balance and experience, but rewards you with a riding experience that is a pure adrenaline rush.

Waverunner with maximum manoeuvrability

The SuperJet is powered by a 1.0-litre high-output engine with around 100 hp. At first glance, this sounds like less power than the large waverunners, but the lightweight construction and minimalist design make the SuperJet an agile, lively sports machine that allows quick changes of direction and impressive tricks. The narrow, aggressive hull profile is designed for maximum manoeuvrability.

The construction method

The compact design and low centre of gravity provide direct feedback and control, which is essential for freestyle, racing or simply riding wild waves. Here you don't just ride on the water, you literally play with it. The cockpit is deliberately kept spartan to save weight and guarantee maximum freedom of movement.

A small digital display provides the most necessary information, and that's all the SuperJet needs. The learning mode is also available and the handlebars are adjustable. The SuperJet is a lot of fun on the water, but also requires a certain amount of balance and sportiness.
