E-Foil
FAQ

An e-foil is an electric hydrofoil board with a motor under the water. A handheld wireless remote controls speed. No wind or waves needed: the motor generates lift and the board flies above the surface. It is the most accessible foiling discipline.

No. E-foil is 100% electric and fully independent of wind and waves. It works in any calm water: flat lagoon, bay, or river. This makes it ideal for Koh Phangan on no-wind days.

45-90 minutes depending on rider weight and speed. During a 1-hour E-Foil Lesson you get the full 60 minutes on the water — time is counted from the moment you enter the water.

Most riders get their first 30-second foil flight within their first 1-hour lesson. The Intro (30 min, 2,000 THB) focuses on balance and basic motor control. The E-Foil Lesson (1 hour, 3,500 THB; 3,000 THB for repeat sessions) introduces foil lift. After 2–3 hours most riders can foil independently — from there the Freedom package (5 × 1 hour, 13,000 THB) is the best value.

E-foil has a spinning propeller which requires respect. All sessions start with a safety briefing. The kill switch on the remote stops the motor instantly if released. We teach in flat water away from swimmers. The main risk is falling, which is a gentle water entry at low speed.

Anyone comfortable in the water. E-foil is particularly popular with: riders on wind-free days, families (children 10+), older riders wanting foiling without physical exertion, and kitesurfers wanting to experience foiling.
