Surf Band
Malibu's patented wrist-worn wireless remote that lets the surfer change the wave's size, length, shape, speed, and side from the water by commanding the Surf Gate and Power Wedge.
The Surf Band is a wrist remote, introduced by Malibu in 2015, that gives the rider total control of the wave while surfing. The rider straps it to their wrist and uses eight clearly marked, rubberized buttons (early versions could be tapped on the band surface) to remotely dial in the Surf Gate and Power Wedge, changing the wave's size, length, shape, and speed.
One button transfers the wave instantly from left to right (and back) by opening one Surf Gate and closing the other. For 2018, Malibu added speed and volume control and integration with the Power Wedge II. A robust wireless connection keeps commands reliable even far back on the wave.
