What is Surfr.AI?

Updated over 3 months ago

Surfr.AI is the cutting-edge algorithm behind Surfr.’s jump detection and height calculations. Powered by artificial intelligence, it was designed to deliver unmatched accuracy in tracking your jumps. No matter your skill level, kite, or device.

How does it work?

Your phone doesn’t have a built-in "height" sensor. If it did, this would have been an easy project! Instead, we spent years developing proprietary AI algorithms that analyze sensor data and calculate jump heights with incredible precision. The accuracy doesn’t just depend on your phone or watch; it’s the AI that makes all the difference.

Why is Surfr.AI so accurate?

We’ve trained our AI on hundreds of gigabytes of real-world data from both pro competitions (Red Bull, GKA, BAKL) and everyday riders. The dataset includes everything:

  • Beginner jumps of just 1-2 meters and massive 20+ meter airs

  • Sessions in wave spots, flat water, light wind, and extreme 50+ knot conditions

  • Data from phones, watches, and different kite types

  • Jumps from basic takeoffs to advanced tricks like double loops and board-offs

The result?

Surfr.AI detects practically 100% of jumps with unparalleled accuracy—no matter where you ride or what gear you use.
