I tried E-Foiling with NO Experience... How to Ride an eFOIL in 10 Days!

[@Wint3riz3d]

How does this not have thousands of views and likes? The editing is on point, the equipment is studio tier, and the personalities of laurie and joe are amazing. Criminally underrated channel

[@LaurieShaw]

Haha thanks mate appreciate that! 🙏 fingers crossed it gains some traction 🤞

[@OldmanCrypto100]

My guess is thousands of people arent going to watch it. Its a fringe sport at best

[@bmxeronoffroad]

I've always been impressed with your videos! between the editing, ideas, and you being a likable person Ive always been confused at how you dont have more subscribers! mabie more colabs with other youtubers would help boost your channel. cause your top notch

[@LaurieShaw]

Thanks so much! Nice to hear, and yeah would be a good idea for sure i think 🙏

[@Tombgirl1991]

Well done, such a good video- wishing I was living in an area that I could try and do this. Video quality and music is amazing 🤩 keep brining out more x

[@LaurieShaw]

Thanks so much! 🙏

[@psychicdrill]

Wow, I never knew this existed lol It must be like flying. Of course, since I can't swim, I wouldn't be tempted to learn this. Cool video!

[@LaurieShaw]

Thanks mate!! 🙏

[@NigelRowden]

Excellent video Laurie ..conditions looked perfect 💦👌

[@LaurieShaw]

Amazing! Thanks mate so happy with the experience!

Fabulous work from everyone ! imo, the Evolution of Water travel especially small crafts : sailboat, windsurfing , 40+mph windsurfing speed ditch in France, kiteboarding , doing all of that plus ocean swell…. and now eFoil…. It’s truly magical and silky smooth , but instructors and students to fall away, and wear flotation that also absorbs impacts. Check out the early morning tour of Miami … near where I grew up …seeing an eFoil near familiar big buildings and Miami River was sweet .

[@markwarne-smith4560]

Guys, you did a brilliant job, am planning on a board soon, it is a major purchase for me as am choosing this over a bike, and really you guys presented a lot of interesting information whether you realized it or not, so big thanks and thumbs up from me. Biggest lesson was to plan for a learning curve and invest in lessons, as I am older and heavier than you spry young fellas.

[@michaelculhane3058]

Helmet, wetsuit, lifepreserver. Bright colors if you're around boats. Don't lean! Just shift hips. And small weight shifts is all you need. And your feet offset wide to left and right is important. I just painted a small mark for my left foot spot to nail the perfect spot every time. If stance feels odd then land ,and change stance w fast. movement. And never when flying! Flat water helps a lot too. Good luck to anyone learning and reading this.

[@michaelvadney5803]

Neat video, thanks! It definitely helps to be younger when taking up Efoiling. I'm 62 and self taught. That took me forever! I didn't have the basics down until my 8 to 10th session. You also made a great choice on starting with air-boards. My carbon fiber board beat me up big time. So many bruises. I did notice that a lot of your falls in the video was on the high side and you face got quite close to the wing. Yikes. You guys pick things up so quickly. Enjoy!

[@Isabelle65390]

Great video🔥

[@LaurieShaw]

Thank you!!!

[@RoySATX]

Great video, guys! This looks like so much fun and freedom! Back in the late 70s through the 80s I was a rather decent roller skater and would skate everywhere, could do spins and other technical tricks pretty well. This is very different, obviously, but the balance and feelings of freedom and flying are probably similar. Of course, I had to be on the lookout for rocks and when I fell it was onto concrete which sucked. But then I didn't need to worry about sharks so there was that!

[@user-od1ci4gn8c]

Such a fun sport! 🔥

[@LaurieShaw]

Way too much fun!

[@Gigi-xr3qs]

Only for the rich.

[@letsefoil]

Hi guys, Great to see you flying soo quickly, although I do see a lot of dangerous falling going on. Has the instructor not shared to always fall to the back? Away from the board. I'm a Efoil instructor as well and telling my students as one of the 1st things. But good progression ! What is your favorite board from Flite ? I guess the pro or the ultra?

[@motoface5984]

I’ve got a lesson with these guys as soon as the water warms up….cannot wait!,,

[@alexshaw3265]

epic challenge as always. well in

[@LaurieShaw]

Cheers broo!!! xx

[@mikeb1039]

Nice job. Don't know if you appreciate how GOOD you had it. progressing through a board in a day would be amazing and not something many get to experience.

[@michaelstanley8418]

How does this sport rate as a extreme and fun compared to other motorized sports? I can see the simplicity and freedom of self control and want to see for myself how addicting the activity is compared from dirt biking even to snow skiing. Great and encouraging Video.

[@djforcefield9115]

Tried e-foiling last week for the first time and was flying within an hour (on a Lift4 in Cancún) in the ocean. Super fun.

[@a10sim]

Thanks very much for this video! I’ve been wondering how you learn to use these boards.😎

[@bradleyloft]

This is great. Flight boards seems to have more of a whistle like sound than the Lift boards which seem more quiet.

[@JuliaI.-wf3pw]

Sorry! But I will write this everywhere. I liked renting it and I bought my own. Yesterday it just turned off in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean near Miami and did not go anymore! At first I rowed with my hands for a long time and was completely exhausted, then I caught a passing boat and asked for help. They took me to the nearest shore and I dragged it through the water for several kilometers to my parking lot. I slept from fatigue after this all day - 7 hours, although I did not have a lack of sleep. I woke up now and I can not do anything, I am completely exhausted, my whole body hurts. And I ran and went to the gym every day. Think - before buying this stupid device - do you need such impressions? If I knew that this could happen, I would never have bought it! Now I find information on the Internet that this often happens to everyone!

[@bfranco1519]

Thanks for taking us on the journey. So cool…

[@NiciBibi]

It‘s like a flying carpet… you are Aladdin 😊

[@itskrumas7793]

try out windsurfing with foils. man you'll love it

[@zylone1]

Incredible impressions!!

[@FlySweden]

Hello, Did you need throttle at all when you were surfing the waves ?

[@irish.marketer]

no guard on the propellor is ridiculous

[@oluap7449]

Awesome quality and content :) Thanks

[@13squared2009]

Great video! One question: I never have any sense whatsoever how long a typical session lasts in these sorts of videos. How much riding are you getting per charge? What’s the ratio of riding to downtime? Looks super fun!

[@JetSurfingNation]

Efoils are super fun. I have been testing them and jetboards for the last 7 years on my channel

[@xgra720]

How would you say this compares to snowboarding? Curious. The body movements on the largest board looked really similar

[@RobertoVillaLobby]

This looks so nice but I'm wondering what happens when you hit a big fish with this. At that speed I think it's instantly broken, no?

[@THEBOSS47MLG]

I learned to ride in maybe 15 minutes, but my dad just can’t seem to get it down. He used to skate a lot, but just can’t seem to get his balance right. I wonder what insights you could offer for helping him.

[@StayReal02]

Guys, please tell me what is the name of the song in the end at the final test day at 15:29?!? Such a good song, thank you!! That would mean a lot to me to know!!

Never tried. How close is this to snowboarding. Of that I do tons every year

What is price? Good video!

[@sc0or]

Don't touch a throttle. Just use few fixed power levels and use your body and muscles for a better control of a balance. It makes NO sense to ride 9.1 kmh or instead 9.2 kmh. A final speed completely depends on your weight and an area of a wing (and a vertical angle somehow).

[@drowsy4312]

For how many hours were you in the water with the efoil ?

[@brahamyoung1951]

Try a “electric One wheel... & Go to Aspen

[@blake-gl4wn]

Cool, but why so much falling towards the foil.. 😵

[@wetdreamstravel1865]

Great Video!

[@vanspurgeon3827]

Love this

[@michaelculhane3058]

How do you turn right without going up too high?

Awesome video, awesome sport but the price is crazy, therfore you can buy a half of tesla. I don´t know where the price is coming from actually 😀it´s not rocket sience.

10 days? Just hire or look at Rolando Amorin videos. Most knowledgeable guy on Fliteboards.

[@WinWitWon]

hydrofoiling is insanely fun, and not very hard to learn

[@SteveHofsaess]

I just purchased my 100 fliteboard,, tommorrow I have surgery to sell my kidney to purchase the other 2 boards and foils, so I can be like you.

[@adrianflores9343]

Are you serious?

[@SteveHofsaess]

@@adrianflores9343 Sarcastic,,, buying all the equiment would cost nearly $30k

[@travisbower3856]

And the cool thing is that the surgery is free, if you can taco it just right.

[@paulwaylo]

What about injuries boys ? Face plant towards the foil? Ouch!

[@asterixzm]

Its very easy

[@limc.6713]

First step: spend 7000$ for the board

[@FatherWaffle]

Where did you find one so cheap?!?

[@derheiler3430]

You all standing on the board completly wrong. A wonder that you can foil this way😂

[@jacobbobmeboi5545]

How else do you do ti

[@juice_williams]

fun like a moped until your friends see you riding one

[@Deadinside23-p2l]

50k + in E-foil boards 😂😅

[@Stephanie666oo]

I bought just need 6.8k$😂

[@raycoferrer]

Traditional water sports offer a deep connection with nature, relying on the wind, waves, and your own body to navigate the water. Efoils, with their electric motors and remote controls, create a barrier between the rider and the natural environment. This tech-driven experience lacks the authenticity and rawness of traditional sports, making it a superficial alternative. Perfect for lazy, unskilled office workers.

[@alexio6732]

It's like comparing a horse and a e-scooter

[@capitaltheorist]

Which group is less judgmental?

[@LiLaskmeaboutchrist]

I surf and ride flight boards and your completely wrong and it’s probably because you haven’t tried

[@avolox]

Relax.

[@benjaminlovesscootering2539]

It’s not easy it’s only easy if you don’t try
