If you want to learn more about the KRASH watercrafts don’t hesitate to read more.

Beyond their story, you can learn about their models, specifications, demo rides, and what you need to do in order to win one!

How it started

Krash initially started off as an aftermarket hull builder in 2008.

They began their business in Australia and after years of success there, Krash has finally made its way to the US!

After recognizing the frustration and horrible experiences that customers had to go through in order to bring together their freestyle/freeride crafts using aftermarket hulls, Nick Barton, the CEO and President of Krash industries, decided to design and offer a complete turn-key solution for the customers.

Nick, himself a well-respected and highly decorated freestyle champions, happens to be the driving force behind Krash and its brand.

He has designed and created every single part you need to make a complete, turn-key watercraft. From the KV 997 engine to the smallest nuts and bolts, Nick crafted everything with the customer in mind.

Nick’s vision is what led to the creation of Krash and it also happens to be what propels the brand forward. With his vision being ever-present in all of Krash’s operations, the company finally launch ready to perform complete watercrafts five years ago.

Models, prices & specs

Are you looking for a freestyle/freeride PWC? Why do you constantly struggle to build a custom watercraft if you can simply purchase one through dealers?

It might sound surprising, but it typically costs around $20,000-$25.000 or more to build a complete freestyle watercraft with an aftermarket hull. In contrast, KRASH models are available for far more affordable prices.

More than that, Krash industries works like any other OEM brand, providing you with complete unit sales, knowledge of parts, services, and a complete dealer network.

They even offer customers the opportunity to finance their Krash watercraft through their dealer. This allows you to choose your model, hit start, and become Ready to Perform!

All of these models arrive with the KV997 twin-cylinder, naturally aspirated 997 cc 2-stroke engine (with open-loop cooling), expertly developed using high pressure die cast aluminium with bored steel sleeves.

For now, Krash Industries is in the final stages of a project that aims to develop a direct-injection engine that can meet the CARB regulations. Slated for a release in 2020, the electrical system on these engines is going to be innovation incarnate.

The electrical system in it is designed to hold 3 pre-set maps that can help you jump from 70hp to 100hp to 130hp with the rotation of a single switch.

Outstanding power to weight ratios

All watercrafts from KRASH are highly lightweight, coming in just around 273-321 Lbs depending on the model. It makes them the lightest among all available watercraft models.

These lightweight hulls and strong engines lead to an outstanding power to weight ratio. Most of the models arrive around with 1:2.5 (0,4) power to weight ratio. This means that you are only carrying 2.5 lbs for every single horsepower.

The lightest model, the Foot Rocket Pro, is made from 100% carbon fiber. It weighs in at just under 275 lbs. and the power plant is good for 130 horsepower. It means an amazing, 1:2.1 (0,48) power to weight ratio!

If you compare this numbers with competitor watercraft models, the Yamaha Superjet weights 306 lbs with 73 HP, which amounts to. 1:4.2 (0,24) power to weight ratio.

On the other hand, the stand up Jet Ski from Kawasaki, the SX-R, offers a remarkable 150 HP performance. However, if we count with its weight – which balances out at 551 lbs – the Kawasaki’s power to weight ratio turns out to be 1:3.7 (0,27).

This high performances combined with low weight hulls make KRASH models really nimble and fun to ride while guaranteeing high performance.

That is one of the reasons why many of the world’s top riders choose KRASH models!

After successfully selling directly to consumers for several years Krash Industries has started to expand their business by creating a U.S. Dealer Network.

We’ve been updated by the company that they will be releasing a list about these US dealerships in near future. As soon as the listis available, we will be sharing it with you immediately!

Until then you can find additional information about Krash Industries here. If you are from Australia, you can reach the company on their Australian website.
