After a short intro, you will go out on Lake Nokomis and test your new skills.

An electric motor for propulsion is located behind the foil. Riders will learn the technical terms for different parts of the eFoil, syncing the control to the board, and starting the motor with the hand control to mount the board. Riders will also learn to accelerate to plane-ing , and further to foil along with carve-ing. This class will meet you wherever you are physically. The boards are designed for riders under 260 pounds, but everyone is welcome to try.
