An eFoil, some tension straps and a dinghy = lots of fun!

Summer is finally here, so it’s time to have some fun!

My dad came up with this brilliant idea: what if we put the eFoil underneath the dinghy?
I was like, “Hell yes. Let’s try this!”

So… here we go. An eFoil, some tension straps, and a dinghy!

Good fun! Did you try standing up? I was just trying to ride today on my knees like that with my daughter laying prone on the board. very tricky and once I decided to try standing it was much easier

Yes, I did try to stand up, but it was really hard to keep it level due to the wind catching the dinghy (yes, even with this little bit of wind).
For sure I am going to give this another go, and will try to stand again.

Awesome…excellent stuff…love it

Kian you and your pops are rocking it! You are lucky to work with your dad on super fun carnival ride engineering projects!

Over the last two years I have been building and literally this last week had my first successful launch, 4’9" Lift hull working with RL Boards 1150 wing, 80cm mast and fuselage, FR prop and a DIY 14s14p pack with Flipsky Vesc 75350amp, BREmote and Metr Pro. But, the relevant part here is I used it with the new Lift Blowfish accessory which adds an inflatable element similar to your dinghy.

I rode luge style and it was so much fun (preferred riding luge than standing). Good stuff :fist_right: :fist_left:

Nice one Gary, and congratulations with the maiden!

I’m not sure if riding luge style will work with this dinghy setup, but will for sure give it a try too :slight_smile:

The boar used underneath the dinghy was a 100 liter Fliteboard frankenstein conversion with the biggest Gong wing we had (something XXL), a V2 Gong 75cm mast, 15S1P, Flipsky 75200 VESC and a 65161 Fipsky motor.

Funny enough the 100 liter board fitted perfectly between the two tubes, and all that was needed were 2 straps to keep the board i place.
It was almost like it was made for it!

And… My dad is the “builder” I’m the test person, and loving every moment of it :call_me_hand::call_me_hand:
