    Nothing for nothing, but Fliteboard propellers don't even engage if it detects that the board is upside down. They also disengage if you pearl the nose and/or fall off. Basic safety features.

      Lift has angle sensors to cut the motor too. I believe the New Waydoo EVO has angle / tilt sensors.
      Agreed that they are basic safety features.
      One thing Lift lacks though is an auto safety lock on the remote to mitigate unintentional acceleration. I think they are the only brand lacking this very basic safety feature.

    A few models of efoil, the prop guard/shroud/duct may actually be *essential for the performance of the eFoil. Removal of this equipment will adversely affect the operation of the eFoil.
    ⚠️ Don't try this at home: putting carrots or other objects in your efoil prop.
    ⚠️ Also you are responsible for any modifications or changes you make to your efoil; prop coverings, or any other equipment.
    Check video description for more details and link to the news article of the injury mentioned at the beginning of this video

    Surprised the Efoils are not yet using ,,,, toroidal propellers

      There's already some brands and third-party companies testing preproduction toroidal props.
      Probably by next year there will be some officially available.
