DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Designed for watersports, not just adapted
There's a big difference between an intercom that's "adapted" for the water and one that's "designed" for it. The AquaPro was developed from scratch to handle submersion, salt, wind, and the repeated impacts of watersports. Its IP67 certification guarantees it's fully waterproof down to 1 metre for 30 minutes. The one-piece design eliminates common weak points: no connectors to corrode, no cables flapping in the wind, and no external case to get knocked off on impact. The included silicone muff and velcro patches ensure a secure fit on a wide range of watersports helmets.
Cut-The-Noise: the key technology
Wind noise is the biggest challenge for clear communication on the water. At 25 knots, a standard intercom is almost useless. The AquaPro features Cut-The-Noise technology, which actively identifies and cancels out background noise like wind, waves and engines, leaving only your voice. Communication is fully automatic: just start talking and your voice is transmitted without you needing to press any buttons. Your hands stay free to control your kite bar or wing handle.
Network for up to 6 riders, 500 metres
The AquaPro uses a 2.4 GHz mesh network with automatic frequency hopping to prevent interference. Up to 6 riders can talk at the same time within a 500-metre range with clear line of sight. It's perfect for kitesurf lessons with a coach on the beach or for group wing foil sessions. AquaPro recommends 4 users for the best performance. Each unit automatically syncs when you turn it on, no setup needed.
25-hour battery life and smartphone Bluetooth
With 25 hours of talk time on a full charge and a quick 2-hour recharge time using a standard 5V charger, the AquaPro can easily last a full week of riding. Its 500-hour standby mode means the unit is always ready to go when you are. The AquaPro also connects to your smartphone via Bluetooth for calls, messages or voicemail, which is perfect for instructors coordinating from the beach or for staying in touch with a support boat during a downwind run.

FAQ: AquaPro Intercom
The AquaPro is for all riders who practice watersports in a group or with coaching. This includes kitesurfers and wingsurfers of all levels, kite or wing school instructors, and rafting, canoeing, or paddle teams. It's suitable for both beginners with an instructor and experienced riders who want to stay in touch during a session.
Cut-The-Noise technology actively filters out wind and water noise where motorcycle or ski intercoms become inaudible above 20 knots. The IP67 one-piece design eliminates connectors that corrode and cables that flap in the wind. Communication is automatic and hands-free, with no buttons to press during your session.
The AquaPro is compatible with a wide range of watersports helmets using the included silicone muff with fasteners and velcro patches. It fits kitesurf, wing-foil, Surf, and rafting helmets. The Hat version integrates the module directly into a neoprene hat. Contact us to check compatibility with your specific model.
Each rider needs their own AquaPro module. For 4 riders, you need 4 modules. They sync automatically at startup with no configuration needed. The network supports up to 6 simultaneous users, with optimal performance for 4 participants.
After each saltwater session, rinse the module with fresh water. Dry it in the shade, avoiding direct sun exposure, and store it in a dry place at room temperature. The microphone and speaker are replaceable without tools in case of wear or damage (these parts come with a 3-month warranty and are available separately).
