On Board with Bianca Martins
How the Social Media Star Found Herself on a Jet Ski
To be Bianca Martins, jet skiing is a form of therapy. She’s 29 years old, and jet skiing is her life. So how did her love for the sport begin? Well, that can be attributed to her life partner. “It all started when my husband bought our first jet ski,” Martins tells The Wake Edit. “He always knew how to ride and do various maneuvers; I, myself, had never ridden one.”
But Martins didn’t shy away from it; she took it as a challenge, having her husband become her coach. And soon, she was hooked. “Since then, he has taught me how to pilot the jet ski and do the maneuvers. I learned everything from him; he was my teacher.”
Today, Martins spends all her free time on her jet ski. Her social media presence has skyrocketed, with an increased engagement that can be largely attributed to her jet ski videos. She constantly posts content on her Sea-Doo GTI 1300, from her favorite “Cavalo de Pua” moves to her “Piran Esquindo”—also known as a skiing spin. She and her husband even ride with each other, doing maneuvers together on the same ski.
“Now, jet skiing has become my passion, my therapy, and we always ride protected with life jackets,”Martins tells us.
