A MESSAGE FROM THE CEO - Nick Barton:
​
Welcome to KRASH Industries. My father Chris and I have been the driving force behind KRASH Industries since 2008, during which time I was riding professionally as a freestyle jet skier. My passion is to excel at whatever I do and my mission is to make the sport of freestyle jetskiing more affordable and accessible to as many people as possible by providing innovative freestyle adrenaline watercraft. We manufacture every freestyle watercraft packed with our company values of innovation, construction, responsibility, compliance and integrity.
​
The sport of freestyle jetskiing is currently undergoing a massive resurgence in popularity due in part to the growth in purpose-built freestyle watercraft that have been modified to enable the rider to do what for many seemed impossible. My competition success has been driven by an innovative repertoire. Just as I see my sporting success resulting from innovation, I also see the success of Krash Industries squarely in terms of the company’s ability to assume the mantle of the innovative leader of the industry.
​
Krash Industries under my direction will continue to build, develop and refine a range of high quality affordable products that will support the growth and recognition of the sport we love. I look forward to your feedback on our products and welcome your suggestions on ways to develop what we do to assist you and your local crew to get the most out of your time on the water.
​
My goal is for Krash Industries to be regarded as the constructor of the best handling, readily available, benchmark quality freestyle adrenaline watercraft in the world.
