Waydoo Subnado Underwater Scooter Review
Where to buy
Where to buy
As a major player in the e-foil industry, it’s no surprise that Waydoo has expanded into the underwater scooter market. The Waydoo Subnado is intended for a variety of water sports, both above and below the waves.
The scooter’s versatility is best demonstrated by its multiple mounting options, including under your paddleboard, under your kayak, onto your scuba tank, or onto your foremans. Using the handrail/handlebar mount you can upgrade the Subnado to a double unit.
After using it for two years and conducting rigorous battery and pool tests, we continue to be impressed with the Waydoo Subnado. It’s compact, reasonably powerful, and well-priced, making it one of our favorite underwater gadgets.
Let’s dive into our review of the Waydoo Subnado.

Pros
- Good value for money
- Can be used as a power bank
- Easy to mount on handles, arm brackets, SUPs, and more
- Wired handles make for better connection on scuba tank mount
Cons
- Batteries don’t swap out, so you have to charge the entire unit
- Even with two scooters on the same rail you must control them separately
- Hard to see the speed or battery level when using
How do you buy one? Looked all over the internet for pricing and/or way to purchase one. No luck. Do you have to contact wayloo?
Hi David. We were lucky enough to get a Waydoo One+ via Waydoo’s homepage. But there are some supply issues that can’t keep up with demand (because it’s one of the least expensive boards out there). It should be made available again soon.
Sorry but a scooter where you cant change the battery is no good to me as i dive 3 times in one day so i only get to use this thing one dive s day so useless its a toy also the S1 pro has more power and better battery live plus remote control with one remote running multiple units and replaceable battery and also airline compliant this is just trying to copy the lefeet and not nearly as good
