On the windward edge of the Outer Banks, Right Coast Surf'Nstruction runs a compact, high-energy jet board lesson built for two: a 2-student-to-1-instructor session that trades crowds for wide-open water and shared thrills. The Double Up format is designed for friends, partners, or anyone who wants to learn together and maximize time riding a motorized surfboard under guided instruction.

THE FORMAT

Designed for pairs — 2 students, 1 instructor

This lesson is structured so two riders work with a single instructor, creating a focused, shared learning environment ideal for friends or partners who want to learn together.

THE RIDE

Intro battery gives a 35–45 minute on-water window

Each Intro lesson includes one battery charge that typically yields roughly 35–45 minutes of ride time, with actual duration affected by conditions and usage.

THE UPGRADE

Add-on battery for extra ride time

If you want more time on the water after your initial lesson, an Add-On option lets the operator swap in a fresh battery so you can continue riding immediately.

Forty-five to ninety minutes of concentrated coaching and hands-on practice, the Double Up lesson compresses instruction and ride time into an intense shared session. Riders receive guided orientation, time on the jet board during the single included battery charge, and the option to extend the outing with an immediate battery swap to keep momentum on the water.
