When you get started learning how to ride an efoil, it helps to have a couple riding tips to flatten the learning curve and shorten your time to ripping on an electric surfboard that flies above the water on a hydrofoil.

In this video, we'll break down the basic moves to help you learn how to ride an efoil.

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.

Shocker brah! Seeing one of these go by and not knowing what it was is a shocker.

Oh joy I'm already looking forward to *sarcasm* one of these zooming through our no wake area claiming "it doesn't make awake". Just another ruling the DNR will have to make on lakes in Michigan and of course they won't do it until 3 years later when everyone's complaining about them.

Thanks for the video. I’m in the Seattle area and currently researching which brand to buy. It appears that efoils need to be registered in WA and display the numbers on the side. Is that your understanding as well? Hopefully, that’s not enforced. Seems like it would really screw up the aesthetics of the board.

Is there a brand you like better? I want to buy one and then rent it to pay for it. I rented my boat for 6 years. My buddy rents WaveRunners.
