Abstract
An enclosed water jet craft allows a passenger to surf waves while having multi directional control to tumble and to launch the craft up into the air. Several valves contained within and under a carriage of the craft are controlled by the manipulation of handlebars containing bearing sensors that control opening and closing jet ports. The water jet craft itself is reinforced for passenger safety and the passenger is harnessed in while using the craft to protect the passenger during launch and tumble while wave surfing.
