efoiling lessons
What is eFoiling?
eFoiling is a fun sport where you have a small board with a foil and electric motor driving a propeller. The motor is controlled by a remote hand held device.
As you drive the motor up to speed you also get lift from the foil and flight. Not needing a wing or paddle, it is easy toglide for long runs.

L1 - Start efoil LESSONS
Using an eFoil is a great way to get your first flights. Our 2 hour START eFoil lessons have been designed to give quick results, meaning you hit the ground running.
Our choice of boards and foils make your life so much easier and we’ve not gone cheap as the results just don’t come with cheap gear.
You’ll have time to take a breather as it is pretty tiring when you’re up on foil so the whole session goes at your pace.
By the end of your session, you’ll have experienced flight, even if for only a short time, so this is where your foiling journey really begins.
L1 - Outline
As a newbie, your journey begins with our START eFoil lessons, which is designed to get you up and foiling within a couple of hours.
The START e Foiling lessons, will take you through the various stages culminating in your first flights and sustained flights.
Who should attend:
* You need to be comfortable on a paddleboard as you will need to be able to balance both on and off the foil.
What we will cover:
- Board and foil anatomy
- Handling the kit
- Understand the environment and safety
- On land demo
- On water time
Getting on the water
Once we’re on the water, we’ll start you off by zooming around on your tummy and learning to steer and control the board with the remote control.
All the time you’re on the board you have direct contact with your instructor via our two way headets.
Phase 1) Once on the water, you’ll get comfortable going around on your tummy. The whole time in contact with our experienced eFoil instructor.
Phase 2) Next step is getting you onto your knees and cruising at steady speed. If you’re feeling confident, our instructor will guide you to raise onto the foil so you get your first taste of flight.
Phase 2) Once we’ve got you steering you’ll move into the kneeling phase. You’re not looking to lift on the foil yet.
Phase 3) Next step is the push up and standing whilst off the foil. You’ll be taxi-ing around and steering and building confidence.
Phase 4) Lift off and touch down with control. Using a bit of extra power then dropping off again.
What we won’t do:
You’re not going to be thrown out on the board without a proper understanding of falling off safely.
You’re not going out without the proper safety gear such as helmet and body protector.
You’re not going out in rough water – we’ll make sure the conditions are suitable.

Where do Our e foiling Lessons Run?
To enjoy the fastest learning curve on an eFoil, you need flat water, so we run our lessons at Bracklesham Bay Chichester Harbour and Hayling Island.
We only run an introductory session as we believe that once you’ve nailed this phase you’re ready to move into winging or downwinding or foil surfing.
We do sometimes run basic introduction to waves, but this session is by invite only as you need to be reasonably capable on the foil before moving into this sphere of foiling.
