Steps to e-foil
It's easiest to practice on a calm lake with little boat traffic.
1. Start on your stomach, you should be able to touch the nose of the board with your hands. If the nose starts to point up when you engage the throttle you most likely need to scoot closer to the nose of the board. Ride around and lean on your form arms to turn.
2. When comfortable riding on your stomach try going to your knees.
3. Remember to hold down the trigger on the remote when going to the standing position. If you ease off the trigger you will be thrown off balance. Use your hands to assist you by pushing off the board. Keep the majority of your weight on your front leg. Ride for a bit without engaging the foil.
4. When you're ready, lean slightly towards your back leg to engage the foil. Lean forward to put the nose back down to the surface of the water. Practice this touch-and-go method till you find that sweet spot for balancing.
Remember if you feel like you're going to fall jump away from the efoil.

The Budget Friendly Efoil Waydoo Flyer One Plus

It feels like a hoverboard! The Waydoo Flyer One is one of the cheapest E-Foils on the market but is it any good? In this video, I test out and review this budget-friendly e-foil. Riding a foilboard is probably the closest thing we have to a functional hoverboard. You feel like you are hovering over the water. Technically more like flying though. The wings on the foil act just like airplane win...

Kitesurfing and The Flow State: An Exhilarating Combination
มุมมอง 626ปีที่แล้ว
The Flow State is a powerful mental state you can achieve by kiteboarding. In the flow state, you become hyper-focused, time can slow down, and the outside world seems to fade away. In this mindset, a kiteboarder can improve significantly. If you have never experienced this mindset, kiteboarding is a great vehicle to get there.

    Is it worth lugging my gear in mid Nov? I'll be in Cancun for a wedding but thinking of going to Holbox.

    • @learnhowtokitesurf
      @learnhowtokitesurf 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Depends on how long you plan on staying. If you're only going for a couple days maybe just bring your kite and rent a board. If you plan on kiting in Cancun bringing your board might be a good idea.

    Very dangerous to realse 25m lines all at once, they can get tangled around themself easily. why don't you release the lines while the kite is drifting? this way there will be tension in the line and less possible tangles...

    • @learnhowtokitesurf
      @learnhowtokitesurf 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      If you release the kite while the lines are still wrapped on the bar the kite can catch power. This can cause the lines to gain tension possibly ruining your bar (I've seen this happen) not to mention making your quick-release ineffective.

    Do you have a link on where one could purchase the Evo? I am looking into this sport; looking at the SiFly, Lift, and Flite boards. The latter two can be spendy. The only site I could find to purchase the Evo is shred-services, but they've been sold out for a while now. Also, Waydoo may have decent reviews for a less expensive board, but it looks like there customer service isn't the best.

    • @learnhowtokitesurf

      I could help you out with the purchase of the evo. I'm a Waydoo ambassador. I've had no problem with customer service, they just operate reverse hrs from the US. Let me know when you decide to get one and I could send you a purchase order.

    Drift launched this way many times. This video explains it very close to how I've done it. The only difference is I hold onto either the far right or left line then controlled release until about half the line is out. Then I let go and grab my bar and ready to pull safety if something happens.

    My experience would tell me to buy second hand equipment as you are going to trash it a bit while learning, especially the kite. Assist from that you need some time on the water to appreciate different types of kites before spending good money on them. As for lessons, 4-5 hours of instructions should be sufficient to know what not to do. The rest is just practice, practice, practice... Enjoy

      Hey Tarek! Adventure Sports Miami has a good flat water spot. It's great for all levels. If you're not Level 1 they can certify you for $30 bucks. Or you could take a supervised lesson with them. Dania Beach Pier In Hollywood FL, is a spot that requires No IKO. It's off the beach but it can get pretty choppy. It's about a 45-minute drive North of Miami. Anne's Beach in the Keys is a good spot with no certification requirements. It's a flat water spot too.
