Can you describe the change in feel to go from 170 Surf to 250HA? I would figure more stability but maybe HA doesn't feel more stable. Do I take it even though you got a 5' you'd augment it with a 4'4"? Or like 5'6" and 4'4"in an ideal world? I can tell you that since I only know what 5' and 170 win...

Grigorib, do you think ultimately you would go with a 5' model or something large like the 6'4? I wrestle with this question. I demo'd the 5' and yes it was tricky to get up and going on but once I did I could see the potential for future carving and fun. Less of an "explorer" model but more excitin...

Yeh Bob I'm sorry that you had that happen to you and your wife in 1998 with PowerSki. I have a couple losses that stung and I have learned from them. I'm in a quandary. I want an efoil but will not swing the 10K. But let's say a $5K becomes available (for example the SuperNova). It still would come...

Bob, Good to hear you are stoked about efoils. What a great toy to bring to OBX for the non-wind days. Just cruise the coastline. I still go back to my thoughts that one must have 2 efoils or a good buddy or partner with one. 2021 Spring will be the dawn IMO. At the new price points more foils will ...

Yeh I saw that $2k off. A couple interesting notes - In one of the emails I got from Lift they were x2 for $20k if you became a Lift affiliate. i.e. - teach lessons, sell them... So it is obvious the $10K price point still leaves them some profit. Nobody gives their stuff away... I am not one to jud...

Hi Flyboy - I actually had an unusual trip this past month in OBX where I jet skied with my friend on the Friday before the house rental. Never done that down there. Jet skiing with a purpose and a buddy is fun. Not everyday fun but once in awhile with a goal of bringing a lunch and going to the san...

FlandOBX - I think the role of using the e-foil as a teaching aid for all things foiling will be a definite plus. The ways to learn foiling now are behind a boat, with a kite, with a wing or SUP, pumping and being towed out to waves, and of course windsurfing. All these require lots of gear and/or w...

I had a chance to ride the Lift 5' "Sport" with smaller wing in Hatteras and what a great toy for the low wind days. Took me 20 minutes of futzing around with the water start and then I got it. Takeaways are: 1. It seems like 2 are in order in that it's really more fun if a buddy/girlfriend has one ...

I started wake foiling seriously 8 weeks ago with my buddy's 5'2" Nobile split board and 24" and 30" mast and relatively small wing (Shinn). I had similar experiences as you but I studied lots of videos and think I can give a good perspective. Last Sunday I also got a chance to foil behind a Malibu ...

The odd thing is I can't find a single link to the Phantom 1080. Is this an "in the know" foil? When you google it the only thing I find is a link back to your 2 threads!
