I like that such a big player like Audi is in the game. That helps making e-foils popular and hopefully will bring up some new design ideas…
Would love to see Porsche Design entering the game:sweat_smile:
1KW power usage at 25km/h is our goal for this year on every foil
Managed to find a friend to fly my drone and put this together.
Hey Jake. Looks amazing! Just started collecting parts for my efoil build. Could you share some detailed pictures of your, more specific your wirering onto/inside the board and your waterproof case?
Thanks!
@guldsteen Here’s a few pics:
This was my older board so a few things have changed, such as the thickness of the epoxy as the coils got too hot, the electronics box has a battery % display and a few other minor adjustments.
Sorry for the late reply.
Didn’t one member here fry his motor by sealing it all in with epoxy? He even tried to use like 50% copper dust film for better thermals but found it to be tens of times less inefficient than just plain water cooling (that 1-2 liters per minute)?
No problem with the cooling
Slow improvement with practice.

First run. 12s (42,5ah) Seaking 130A, 500kv, Neugart 5:1. Gong 65cm medium foil.
“Flat nose” board 135x70cm.
Very easy ride. Cruising at 35 amps.

Hi everyone! I’m on my way home after a magical two day boat show with only electric and hybrid boats. It was hosted by the Swedish maritime museum in Stockholm and its been covered by national media in Sweden.
I brought both my foils v1and v2 and my hybrid boat. I did demo runs both days and it was a success.
I also had the chance to meet with true pioneers Candela Speed boats and we did a all electric foiling run together. Pure magic
More pictures and videos to come.
This candela thingy is super amazing. Saw their progress few years back and was amazed on how mobile and stable their mechanisms are!
last part is with new e-foil without mast:p, from Venice.
You guys did it first
Its us in Venice as well
What? You got contracted by Disney to ride your foil as part of the trailer???
It is a nice summer job, 2000€ per day. All costs and return flight in business class included.
The internets’ ways (Buzz) are impenetrable.
What did the police say ? Don Montague in the Netherlands was caught like a criminal…
My guess is that they were the ‘stuntmen’ that rode the foil for the movie.
Yep something like that
