Bbtalkin Reviews

September 29, 2023: “Amazing product, really adds another level of fun and safety to your water sports activities. Their customer service is phenomenal too.

We are looking forward to adding audio to our professional video productions too.”

Samuel Salwei, Florida

Sept. 7, 2023: “Unsolicited testimonial warning!: bbtalkin is simply the COOLEST device for on-the-water teaching and training that I ever experienced. As a former certified instructor myself and lifelong educator, take note and get in touch with Dasher to learn more. It’s borderline neglect if you’re an instructor or coach and you don’t get your own bbtalkin setup.”

Steven Davis, Jacksonville, FL

July 14, 2023: The fact that it changes the game in water sports seriously blows my mind!

“Hey, I just bought the Shaun Murray package and it has arrived.  Yesterday we were on the water and got to use it for the first time.  I was almost in tears with the fact that I could talk to the rider (my kids).  The fact that is changes the game in water sports seriously blows my mind and I’m beside myself with why I didn’t invest earlier.  I will forever be grateful for every moment we have on the water.  Bbtalkin is seriously the best addition to the sport in decades!”

March 15, 2022: “I received the headsets and have begun the process of testing them out.  The feedback has been very positive. Thank you very much for all the help so far. These headsets are drastically improving the communications between our fire members.”

July 18, 2020: Coaching a Method while doing one! ? ?
–
“I’ve had a blast traveling and coaching this summer. When I ride, I’ll often put on my @bbtalkinusa helmet and connect the other end to the boat speakers. This way I can literally talk through my tricks as I do them during my demo set. I’ll primarily focus on the tricks that my students are working on. This gives them a chance to get into my head when I’m focused on the timing, the tempo, or just explaining the physics as it happens. The feedback I get from my students has been pretty entertaining! One student said, ‘It seemed like I was listening to a podcast about wakeboarding. I almost forgot it was you talking through the helmet!”

Brandon Judd, Salt Lake City, Utah

June 26, 2019: “I’ve coached wakeboarding for over 25 years and have been using Bb Talkin for over 4 now. Simply put, I don’t like coaching without it! I can have 10 times the amount of progression from my students in just 1 session. With open 2 way communication, it allows my students and me to clearly get across exactly what I’m talking about without shouting and wasting valuable water time sitting in the water explaining things. And that doesn’t even completely encompass the benefits of coaching.

Not to mention all the other uses outside of coaching. Riding doubles, triples or more on cable.

The snow application is amazing. I’ve been on the snow longer than the water and nothing has changed the sport of snowboarding for me more than Bb Talkin’, and I’m serious about that. No more gathering every few hundred yards on the mountain to make sure you and your buddies are going the right way. No more guessing what’s on the backside of the drop. “I found a powder stash over here!” Is a way I got myself and my buddies into more powder runs than ever before.

Battery life lasts all day. Use your phone headphones in some applications that don’t require waterproofness. Is that a word?

I know I’m speaking a lot about this, but this is my condensed version of how much I enjoy using Bb Talkin!”

Shaun Murray, Orlando, Florida

Feb. 18, 2020: “We’ve had a decent amount of time to evaluate your systems and their applicability within the swift water rescue community. The systems are great, providing us with the ability to effectively communicate while on the scene of water rescue incident.  They have proven to be incredibly valuable and we definitely see them providing a lot of benefit to swift water incidents.

We have had the opportunity to put the units through multiple scenarios. We have done distance testing on station grounds, tested the effort and time needed to teach someone how to use the systems, and even taken them out to our local river to test them amongst different terrain and environments. The results were impressive and they add great value to our water rescue service.

We love the systems!”

Gabe Jukish, Deerwood, MN

Nov. 8, 2019: “Foilboard coaching on Kite Beach while always in crystal clear communication with my BbTALKIN headsets.

With these amazing Bluetooth devices all instructions happen in real time over 2-way communication so as a student your improvement skyrockets compared to any other teaching method.

Come learn to foil with us and you’ll be gliding on waves like never before. Safer and faster learning guaranteed.“

May 1, 2020: “A device I’ll not longer go out without!!!

As a former professional skydiving instructor, certified snowboarding instructor and full time kitesurfer aficionado. I’m was totally thrilled when I received from my partner a set of BB TALKIN USA waterproof communication devices as a birthday gift.

She and I spend several hours out to sea kitesurfing in all types of wind and ocean conditions. Being able to have two ways Bbtalkin communications has been crucial for our safety as well as very important for fast decision making and has absolutely increased our enjoyment of our sport. As an example, on today’s session, she was able to let me know that a shark was about 40 feet ahead of her and she needed to tack away from it right away, I then can get out of her way and be aware of where danger exists. The important point here is the contrast: without these units, we would have zero communication out in the Ocean…

What’s more fascinating to me is that I can just remove the units from our hats and install them on my daughter’s snowboarding helmet. Being able to talk to her on the snowy mountains (without needing to shout), again in all types of conditions, has increased my priority #1 which is her safety. Her learning curve shoot up the moment we used these units, and since they are two ways communication, she’s able to ask me any question, update me about her energy-fatigue level and even just conversed on the fun we are having.

And now that she’s entering intermediate level, we can enjoy music played from my phone via these units. So the units are fantastic and the customer service is just as reliable as the products. I’ve called them once from the chair lift on the snowy mountains on new years eve for troubleshooting and very kindly they helped me reconnect the units.

And, even during these World crisis (covid19) they respond quickly whether I reach out to them via email, phone or on their website.

I hope you too get to enjoy these awesome products as we do here in Hawaii, or in Whistler. Thank you BB TALKIN USA ?? ?“

April 5, 2017: “I’ve been teaching Kitesurfing for almost 20 years now. I used to have to shout and would often come home with a headache. I teach off a boat and I can tell you one thing the range is very good, not only can They hear my instruction crystal clear but they can also talk back to me and ask me questions. The first Time I use them, the results were immediate. The students comfort level went sky high as well for me, also I think it’s much safer be able talk on demand with extreme sport like this. Even when it’s windy, it’s almost like you’re in an IMAX theater, now I don’t know how I did it for all these years without it. Bb Talkin, is a great product thanks guys.”

Ty Luckett, Kite-Hatteras, NC

June 21, 2019: “BB Talkin has revolutionized my ability to provide quality and effective training in my field. As a privateer athlete and contractor for show performances and or trainings, I like to be and work as professional as possible. With BB Talkin at my fingertips, I am able to set myself above the rest by expediting my training being able to make on the spot communication to make effective changes when needed. Not only that, I am able to get into my best mental state before and during freeride competitions since I am able to stream my playlist from my phone on shore to my helmet while I am competing in the waves. I have recently been hired to coach in Puerto Rico, and in the Netherlands, both scenarios the BB talkin units have been a vital part of the training process in which all of my clients exceeded their goals. I look forward to seeing further developments by BB talkin, including the Moto Helmet application that I have been testing with them on!”

Sept. 6, 2016: “I am the head coach for Red Gear Racing. We are a premere multihull racing coaching service that works with sailors of all ages…youth and adult all the way thru and including Olympic sailors. We host clinics all over the country with our home base in Clearwater, Florida. We recently started to use the BBTalking headsets in our programs. This is the best teaching tool that we have seen yet! We use it with our Red Gear Racing Coaching group and it has far exceeded our expectations! We originally expected it to clear up the number one problem when you are coaching High Performance FAST multihull sailboats. It is almost impossible to have clear timely communications, especially two way! Not only did this allow us to communicate clearly with a long range but it surprised us and dramatically increased the learning curve of the people we were working with because input was clear and quick. You could literally be in their head during a practice start. This is a tool no team looking to improve or teaching facility on the water can be with out. Thank you BBTalking for making our life and the life of our customer so much more enriched. If you are wondering if this would work for you….I can say YES….feel free to contact me if you have any questions. THIS IS A FABULOUS PRODUCT!”

Aug. 6, 2020: “This past Tuesday, the Maryland area received a tremendous amount of rain over a sustained period with the arrival of Hurricane Isaias; upwards of 6” in some parts of the state. Baltimore County’s Swiftwater Team 35 (SRT 35) was alerted for multiple swiftwater rescues on the east side of the county. Rescue technicians from SRT 35 used the BbTalkin Advanced units during the rescue of an individual trapped in a vehicle within rising flood waters. As the two-man team conducted a shallow water crossing to the vehicle, with one technician equipped with the BbTalkin system, they were able to remain in constant communication with the incident commander on dry land who also had a BbTalkin system.

Once the technicians made contact with the subject in the vehicle, they were able to quickly relay critical information back to the incident commander such as the number of occupants in the vehicle, present injuries, and any other pertinent information. This type of information is critical for timely preparation of movements on dry land such as EMS support or additional equipment needed. Additionally, with a constant hands-free communication line, the incident commander would have been able to quickly inform the rescue technicians of any hazards the technicians may have not seen such as approaching vehicles or deteriorating conditions.

We want to thank you and your team again. This rescue was undoubtedly more efficient and we were all very excited to get to use the systems in a real-life rescue.”

Oct. 16, 2020: “Game changing!”

Brad Wilborne, The Wake Movement, Centerton, AR

May 27, 2017: “I’m very happy to say that the last lesson I had was the best and most comfortable coaching experience I’ve ever had, thanks to Bbtalkin, for me and the student. Great distance, clear 1 km away, great handling on salty water and also very comfortable.”

Humberto Oliva, Kiteology DR

Sept. 17, 2019: “Literally the most kind and exceptional people working there. They are extremely knowledgeable and exceed your needs. The product is life changing – I don’t know how I would live without it now. I stand behind this product, brand, and family atmosphere. Finally, a product that beyond works!“

Krysten Marlette, SeaDoo Test Facility

June 15, 2018: “Super impressed that you are following up with shipping my gear to me! I did say I needed it by Friday, yes!! And I did contact Fedex, and they are going to leave it at the depot tonight, and I’ll pick it up tomorrow morning (Friday morning) 😉 Thank you again Sabrina! Your customer service is impeccable!”

Oct. 19, 2020: “Raikkon has had a busy 6 weeks wakeboarding several times a week (he only rode a couple of times over winter, and before that once every week or two). He has gone from not being able to complete a lap on cable to 1st making a full lap with @tom.heatley during grom club at full speed (normally for 8 – 16 year olds).

Then a few days later we added a complete #gamechanger to #dadcoaching with the help of @bbtalkin_intercom and he made 5 full laps at slow speed with me chatting in his ear instead of shouting from the shore.”

April 3, 2020: “Within one tank Donzi was ripping consistent flips. None of this would be possible with out @bbtalkinusa 2 way communication devices. Being able to give pointers from shore helps the student eliminate any bad habits while in motion and drastically increases learning retention and trick success. These communicators have lessened wear on the ski, increased riders success rates, and made the experience that much better for the students.”

Freestyle Connection, Lake Worth, FL

July 2, 2019: “I am professional wakeboarder as well as a Wakeboard coach. I use this awesome technology from Bbtalkin almost every day of my life. I can’t imagine not having this awesome tool. It makes such a huge difference when trying to coach someone or getting coached. If you’re the coach your voice will also thank you. It’s such a life safer not having to try and scream over the boat. Coaching has never been easier all thanks to Bbtalkin!”

Tony Iacconi, Florida and Australia

June 21, 2021: “Thanks for making such a great product .. 25 years of coaching .. I truly believe I get through 30-40% more in one lessons with bbTalkin.. thanks”

Kurt Robinson, The Wakeboard Camp

August 16, 2021: “Hi! I just wanted to shoot you a message of appreciation! BBtalkins have been a GAME CHANGER for our family! We were introduced to them during a wakeboarding lesson and immediately bought a set. We have 5 kids (and myself!) who are new to wakeboarding, having the ability to give immediate instruction in the moment is AMAZING! We just got back from a lake trip with 10 kids – 5 who had never been on a wakeboard. Getting them up and wakeboarding was such a smooth process!
BBtalkins have brought joy to our family!”

Widmer Family, Ohio

March 15, 2022: “The system works FANTASTIC and has attracted a huge amount of interest, both on the water and with some leading Boat Retail Shops.

I do not use the system for coaching but more in terms of safety, in that you have constant communication with the person driving the boat – This is what has sparked the immense interest in the system.

Also Jet Ski’s – in that the units can be a paired and the guys could talk freely to one another.“
