Flitescooter eFoil First Ride: This $13K Hydrofoil Meant for Amateurs Is a Rough Ride

Recently, I had the opportunity to test out the Flitescooter eFoil, a $13,000 hydrofoil designed for amateurs looking to experience the thrill of flying over water. While the concept of gliding effortlessly over the waves was enticing, the reality of riding this high-tech toy proved to be a rough ride.

From the moment I stepped onto the eFoil, I could tell that it was going to be a challenging experience. Balancing on the hydrofoil board while controlling the remote to adjust speed and direction was no easy feat. The learning curve was steep, and I found myself tumbling into the water more times than I care to admit.

Despite the initial struggles, I did manage to get the hang of it after a few tries. The sensation of gliding over the water was truly exhilarating, and I could see how this could be addictive for those willing to put in the time to master it. However, the rough ride was a stark reminder that this high-tech toy is not for the faint of heart.

Overall, the Flitescooter eFoil is an impressive piece of technology that offers a unique and thrilling experience for water sports enthusiasts. But be prepared for a bumpy ride if you’re a beginner looking to try your hand at hydrofoiling.
