And shoot me a message on any of my socials if ever and you find your way here

Imagining my stickers around the world is awesome to think about. Glad you like the look. I'll keep you and this message in mind in the future. Focusing on a few other projects first

Awesome. Paris, wow! Thanks for letting me know. I like to say that "summer is just 5mm away" ... But that's based on temps here at Powell and my experience. A wetsuit may help hurry summer along 😃🤙 I'll have another video from the Utah boat show posted today. I ended up putting more work and edits into it than originally planned. Then I'll get back to my ride tests videos to try to catch up to current day

All Magic can't satisfy everyone the same way

Flyer EVO Pro Plus with 35" mast, Voyager 1100 wing and folding prop. Larger 45Ah battery

As far as the Voyager 1500 (originally Explorer wing) having too much lift, you could try: *a lower speed and/or more gradual acceleration to flying speed *Shim the rear part of the stabilizer wing with a 2mm nylon washer around the rear bolt * Try one of the other wings if you have access to the others

Thanks for letting me know. Happy to hear that you're enjoying them and finding them insightful

Yes! The long aluminum 35" mast. Love riding high! Excellent clearance over surf-boat waves in summer too. This is the Waydoo Flyer EVO Pro Plus model. The "plus (+)" signifies that it has the smart tech features such as the Flight Assist sensors. However, those sensors were turned off and not in use for this clip. More info on the setup in video description The Flight Assist tech is really handy for beginners or learning new things like riding switch-stance or body varials. I've also used it to alleviate those moments when perfect, reflective glassy conditions overwhelm the senses. I'm not confident that the Assist can be relied on for harder sharper turns, but is good for mild turns. But if an advanced rider is looking to shave some weight and has no intention on using the smart tech, the EVO Pro (no plus) will be just a bit lighter without the smart tech inside. It is green in color instead of blue. It's actually the lightest board available from Waydoo Standard battery vs the larger battery will shave about 4 lbs more for even better handling.

You're welcome and Done. I had "Waydoo eFoil" in parentheses and previously maxed the character count on the title, but found a way to squeeze in "Flyer ONE"

In order to make the Aluminum available at reasonable price there will need to be a batch of 20 or more made. If demand is there for an Aluminum version then Jeff from eFoil Solutions will have a batch made. Otherwise we may not see an aluminum version made available. Installation is virtually the same as any other prop for the Waydoo Flyer ONE. I may make a video on that, but I'll need to catch up on some other videos first

Thanks

Thanks for sharing. I'm sure that and any feedback will be useful. I've read about a SAB Foil adapter being developed from another source. I've also recently learned that an Axis adapter for the EVO will be available this Spring from eFoil Solutions. The eFoil community is definitely growing in creativity as well as creators.

Thanks! I'm an 80s kid too! 🤜💥🤛

Thanks for letting me know ✌️

In this video I'm wearing a Billabong Absolute+ 5•4mm wetsuit. I recently purchased it during Black Friday Sales and is Plenty warm! I'm confident it will serve me well for the whole winter season. December has proven to be a transitional month for wetsuit thickness for me. On nice sunny calm days I'll be ok with a 3mm suit like my older Xcel 3•2 suit (that suit keeps on kicking. It was my first wetsuit I bought as an adult at a discount sale over 10 years ago) but a 5mm is better in December for me. I bought my first 5mm and first chest-zip suit (Dakine brand 5•4•3) in January 2022 because I was having withdrawals after not foiling for a month or more 😂. The Dakine suit started having a few leaks at the end of winter 2024 and is no longer much warmer than the Xcel 3mm suit. I knew I'd need a new one for January - March and bought the Billabong one. I have never tried anything thicker than 5mm. 5mm seemed thick enough with the Dakine the past two Winters and I'm liking this newer Billabong even more. It has nicer jersey-like material on the inside on the core... But with that said, the newer version of the Dakine I was wearing before looks to have a better updated interior too. I'm also liking the BUILT-IN hood more than I thought I would. I Initially didn't think I liked hoods because of an uncomfortable experience with a separate older and stiffer hood years ago. Seems wetsuits keep getting better and better like most things. Definitely more comfortable than the suits I wore as a kid up to November only. Foiling is the first activity that has inspired me to continue enjoying Watersports past November. Here's to hoping the new suit lasts 2 or more seasons vs the Dakine's 2 seasons. Preferably more of course 😃

@@eFoilLakePowell Thanks for your detailed response! Recently started e-foiling (around sw Utah), as a way to hopefully "get" wingfoiling, which I took up this past summer. Discovered that efoiling is a ton of fun and will be more than just a stepping stone to winging, for sure. Purchased a new O'neill 3/4 to replace a 2/3....but I'm afraid I'll need a 5mm w/hood to get out on the water now! The 3/4 will extend the season though, for sure. Thanks again - really enjoy your videos on Powell.👏

@absolutevegan9726 thanks for sharing. Wonderful to hear from a neighboring foiler still riding. That 5 suit upgrade I bet will be perfect. Shoot me a message on any of my socials if you make a trip to Powell and want to go for a group ride

@@eFoilLakePowell Awesome - will do!

Awesome!

Yes. These stickers did stay on. Consider using some test-stickers (characters that are not part of your registration) to see if they'll stay on. At least keep a good eye on the decals for the first couple rides, especially if it's a custom one-piece sticker... But I recon the custom ones will be higher quality in every way and should stay firmly in place

Gliding 1500 Wing. Original 3 blade prop (uncaged) used. The original 3 blade EVO prop has superior breach forgiveness. I could not do this with the folding prop. Folding prop is average on breach recovery. Jet also has amazing breach recovery

@@eFoilLakePowell Nice. Do you remove the whole cage unit or cut the cage off?

@bones99999 The entire cage has been removed. It comes off relatively easy. No cutting required. The main prop guard piece has been replaced with what is commonly known in the industry as a "prop cone." The Prop Cone will have the same core shape as the piece of the prop guard between the prop and the motor, but without the spokes of the prop guard. I am using the prop cone from the folding prop kit, but with the original 3 blade prop. The back part of the prop guard can be removed simply by twisting it off. This will reduce drag a little bit, but not as much as removing the entire thing and replacing it with a prop cone. I prefer the looser feeling without the guard. Even the jet feels somewhat looser (to me) than the big circumference of the prop guard. Not sure if the prop cone is available to purchase alone by itself outside the folding prop kit yet. I'll have to recommend Waydoo and dealers, (such as my friends at Adventure Elevated in Utah) carry and sell the prop cone as an individual part for those that may not intend to surf waves or wakes. The folding prop is up to 10% more efficient than the uncovered standard prop (based on two controlled tests at 15 mph) But the foldy has a lower top speed (but still very fast) and is not as breach friendly.

@@eFoilLakePowell great thanks for the reply. I get what you mean. I have taken the prop cone off for a clean and lube of the shaft. I'll look to see if anyone has made a 3D model of it. Hopefully.

Thanks for the feedback. Sorry to hear about your problems with your GetFOIL gear keeping you grounded this year. That's unfortunate 😔. Hope you still got some water and Powell time in other ways. Im hoping to catch up on videos and projects. I'm behind and I've underestimated (again) how busy the last few months (quarter) of the year can get for me and my family. Looking forward to sharing more from earlier this year and new things going now such as the EVO. Lift has a great deal going on now for the Lift 4. Part of the reason for the deal is to move inventory for the eventual arrival of the next generation Lift eFoils. Little has been seen/ announced publicly so far, but it appears the next Lift eFoil will be entirely different, leaving compatibility behind. Much how the Waydoo EVO is not compatible with the previous gen. Lots of cool stuff and evolution of foiling as a whole on the horizon. 2025 will be amazing I think. Trying to make the most of things till then too. Wishing the same for you. Enjoy the rest of the year and on.

No it will not fit. The jet attaches in a totally different way. Other than that, you can expect the EVO jet to look and function exactly the same as the jet for the Flyer ONE Series. The way it attaches is the only significant difference. Much the same can be said about the Folding Prop too. Expect the same performance, but improved flow of water from fuselage to prop blades because the core of the prop is more conical vs a small cylinder. A small but big difference between the Flyer EVO and Flyer ONE series is the pin that slides through the shaft to spin the prop is THICKER on the EVO than the ONE. Nothing is compatible between the EVO and ONE... Except the tail stabilizer... Sorta... The EVO stabilizer has a small nub on the bottom (to help hold it in place while screwing it down), but it could be ground off to fit the Flyer ONE series. Hoping to catch up on some videos to show these things and more in detail.

That's awesome! Potential and thrills unblocked 🔓

Hello, glad to know the video provided some help to get things going. MSO/MCO should be provided by the seller. If you purchased from a dealer (local or online) it should be provided by the seller. If you bought direct from Waydoo you should get it from Waydoo or possibly the USA Waydoo distributor. I recently purchased a new Waydoo Flyer One PLUS deck only from Green Hat Kiteboarding online. (Very fast shipping 👍) MSO had somehow slid under one of the bottom flaps of the box AND stuck to the bottom of the flap. I nearly missed it! If you still have the original box, check the box again. Check every single panel of the box to be sure it didn't fall into a crazy hidden spot like mine. I'd suggest contacting whoever you purchased it from first. Then reach out to Waydoo about the document(s)

@@eFoilLakePowell I ordered direct and don't believe it got tossed. I have several inquiries to Waydoo direct and Mackiteboarding in Michigan to see if I can get one generated. Waydoo no response? Thanks for your time!

@@SPSC97 sorry to hear about your challenges on that. I hope they respond soon. I feel like they generally respond very quickly (within a day or so or less) from what I've seen. But I've also seen an occasional person "slip through the cracks" with any and all brands for that matter. Keep trying.

Finally got a reply from Waydoo, hopefully the are processing it now! My channel is SPSC97, mostly windsurfing around Florida and Bonaire.

@@SPSC97 awesome. There was recently a major holiday in China and for Asian countries, which probably extended your delayed response even more. I hope your experience will be more positive as I know it can be, moving forward!

No, it does not affect the sound. The cutouts expose the speakers entirely

Thanks. Welcome to Page ... Or welcome back 😃

Who? me?

💯 But one Human has had his stoke 🔥 meter filled in the making of it 😁

It's tough for sure. Shifting more or less weight into my forearms and putting my head up or down helps with elevation control. Legs straight and down vs knees bent and legs up can help with shifting weight forward and back too. Turning is done by rolling weight from hip to hip and thigh to thigh. Forearms come into play here too. More weight on left or right arm. Varying the speed is important too. You may need to vary the speed more in prone than other positions pending if your trying to carve or not. Eventually you'll figure out where you need to lay on the board to have a nice balance of all these limited motions. Superman! And Live Life to the Foilest

When standing, your center of gravity is highest, but you have the most control over that gravity and can shift it around significantly and quickly. When kneeling, your center of gravity is lower and you have pretty good ability to shift around. Prolonged kneeling can lead to fatigue after a while for most people though. Sitting has equally low center of gravity, but because the butt is squishy it does not respond as quickly as the harder knees do. I can sit all day and ride because it's comfortable. When in prone position your center of gravity is lowest but there is very little control over that center of gravity as we are discussing I love riding in every position. Switching it up, just keeps it being so much fun

That's a very good point. It is after all one of the reasons that people will say that they don't like wakeboats or wake surfers is because some of them are blasting tunes with their giant speakers 🤪. We definitely want to maintain good public perception of efoiling. So far, based on my location at Lake Powell, people really love efoils because we're so quiet and make no wake. Keeping things quiet when in serene public environments will be important. When I'm in canyons, especially Antelope Canyon where there are paddle sports or slow moving boats and fishing, I will pause the music. Echos in the canyon are no good for others either If I plan to be riding aggressively, I often won't bring the music at all because listening to the cues of the water tension breaking from the wings or the prop reaching the surface is extremely important. I know this is something that I have mentioned in some of my videos. I know some people use waterproof bone conducting headphones. I'm just not sure how well they will work while someone is wearing different kinds of helmets. I like the idea of the bone conducting ones because it keeps the rider's ears open for listening to other boaters and hazards. Which is also why I like the Bluetooth speaker instead of headphones or earbuds. But if you have a product suggestion for a helmet mounted one that will not filter out ambient noise too much, let me know I'll definitely try to point out good public etiquette of noise in future videos. Glad you're enjoying the content and appreciate the feedback 🤙

FINIS Duo conducting earphones are great for swimming, but they don't really connect to your head well without goggles. They would be hard to attach without losing them in a wipeout, too. I imagine there must be some sort of helmet mounted headphones considering the snowboard/surfing industry.

Ya that sounds right on the motor. I would definitely suggest joining the Facebook community group. There are individuals who are far more talented, experienced, and knowledgeable about everything going on than I ever will be. facebook.com/share/g/zKgyrqFE33L4HVtU/?mibextid=A7sQZp Some of the suppliers are helping, others are in situations where they cannot or will not help because of legal action against FOIL or other reasons A member of the group made a 3-D printed prop and shared the files for that. Otherwise I think there are no props. They may have been made in house like a few other things facebook.com/share/g/zKgyrqFE33L4HVtU/?mibextid=A7sQZp

Home is where the heart is ❤️

🤗. My oldest son was kind enough to shoot the video for me. Good little camera man.

Awesome! Glad to hear it's been a good upgraded experience!

I appreciate that. Thanks and you as well

Thanks so much for sharing. Looking forward to seeing what individuals and the entire industry/ sport can do. I gotta catch up on the amazing stuff I have yet to share so I can be ready for the potential yet to come... But at the same time "Keep it real" and don't sweat it. Surf and Fly, jive with Powell and go with God

Glad to hear the video was helpful. Even if it simply inspires some new methods or adjustments. Building speed while standing is one of the methods I demonstrated. As you said, moving the rear foot can be difficult for many. Getting that rear foot positioned roughly where you ultimately want it first, helps a lot. If rear foot needs to be moved it might be easier to go back to knees and start over with an adjusted rear foot position and try again. Taking mental note of what feels better so it can be repeated. Eventually, a rider will have enough experience and balance that they can get up with little thought and even some sloppiness and then adjust any foot on the fly. For someone new it may

totally agree. I wish I had seen this video before I started. Took me two sessions to figure this out on my own.

@@Drlarceny glad your foiling. Also my apologies that I did not post a video like this sooner. I tend to be overzealous and bury myself in video projects and ideas. which then puts me seriously behind. Also it took me a while to fully realize how much of a challenge this board shape can be for some but not for others. I've had people who I'd expect to struggle, pop up no problem. I've also seen a couple cases where very experienced riders struggle unexpectedly.

​@@eFoilLakePowell what wing were you using in the video?

@@Drlarceny 250 wing. My and many people's favorite of the FOIL wings.

I actually got them as a package along with titanium bolts and the Axis fuselage adapters from the eFoil Premium Gears (rip) BUT Here's an Amazon link for just the latches that other's found for replacement/upgrade a.co/d/2ShxcoG The FOIL shop is also still open for selling remaining parts they have on stock. They have plastic board latches still shop.getfoil.com/collections/accessories

Yes indeed 😃
