About the Item
Vintage Bloomingdale JB100 Jetboard surfboard. This incredible example, serial #0703 was purchased new in the 1960s and was immediately put into dry storage. It has never been ridden. The original owners manual, service manual, and accessories are included and in their original packaging. Originally conceived by Alfred Bloomingdale, heir to the Bloomingdale Department store fortune, who enjoyed surfing but had a distaste for the paddling involved. The prototype was made of wood but was replaced by the current aluminum constructed surfboard, made like the wing of an airplane. Powered by a flat lightweight custom Tecumseh 6.25 horsepower engine with jet ski like jet. The traveling speed of the board can be adjusted by a dial on the deck. The leash connects to the jet board with a magnet, so when the surfer takes a spill, the leash detaches and the engine shuts off. It also has a convenient carrying handle on the side of the board. Manufactured in Los Angeles, California, between 1965-1968. Only 700-800 jetboards were made before the company went out of business.
