What are the different propolusion options for the Lift eFoil?
The LCS is the fast changing system. Allowing you to swap propellers (say from normal to folding prop) and back without having to use an Allen key. Each piece will click in and lock on to each other. If you don’t plan on changing propellers often, then the fixed prop (cheaper) is the way to go
Can I use my V2 eFoil battery in the new eFoil?
Yes, all eFoils and eFoil Batteries are backwards compatible. You can use your old V2 and V3 batteries in your new eFoil and you can use your new eFoil battery in your old eFoil, but you may need a Data Cable Adapter for your eBox and 5 pin charger cable to adapt your charger.
Is eFoiling dangerous?
Learning to eFoil is very safe. In every lesson, all students will wear a USCG approved life jacket and a helmet with radio communication. Your instructor will be next to you on their own eFoil at all times, talking with ease through the headset. You'll be taught to safely fall into the water, release the throttle and enjoy your eFoil experience! eFoiling is the safest and easiet way to be introduced to the feeling of hydrofoiling.
