Silent flight
above the water.
Everything on FoilFun comes back to riding a board that lifts clear of the surface. You'll find eFoil, wingfoil and electric watersports here, with brand guides, current prices and our full model comparison.
ExploreWhat is an eFoil?
An eFoil is an electric hydrofoil surfboard (you'll also see it spelled e-foil or e foil). Once the board passes a certain speed, the wing underneath lifts you clear of the water and you fly over the surface almost without a sound. Waves and wind don't come into it. A mirror-flat lake is enough, and Lift says most riders are up and flying within their first session.
Our eFoil guide covers the rest: how the technology works, how you learn to fly and what gear you need. If you're already shopping, the comparison table lets you compare 30 current models from seven brands.

The foil sports
Which eFoil is right for you?
The market falls into three rough segments, and their prices overlap. The cards below are a quick first orientation. For the full breakdown, go to the comparison page.
You're just starting out
A board with a handlebar, such as the Flite Flitescooter or the Aerofoils Hyperfly, gets you onto the water fastest. If you'd rather start on a classic board, Waydoo calls its EVO Max Plus (130 l) the largest and most stable board in its EVO range.

SiFly says it assembles its eFoils in the EU, and EU buyers pay no import duties. The Rider line starts at €4,999 excl. VAT, with a two-year warranty behind it.
SiFly models →You want premium
Lift and Flite are the benchmarks most other brands get measured against, and each offers a well-rounded setup built around its boards. A rigid board costs $10,999 at both, but that price buys fiberglass (or Flite's Soft Top 2), not carbon. For carbon you pay from $12,599 with Flite and $13,999 with Lift. Flite's inflatable AIR comes in lower, at $8,999.

More than foils: electric watersports
Foils aren't the only quiet way across the water. Premium electric boats, jetboards and motorized SUPs are part of the same world, and we cover each of the three.
FoilFun writes about foil watersports, and now in English too. We take prices and technical data straight from the manufacturers' official pages. On every brand page you'll see the date we last checked the maker's site.
Frequently asked questions
What is an eFoil?
An eFoil is an electrically powered hydrofoil surfboard, also written e-foil. Past a certain speed its wing lifts you out of the water and you glide quietly over the surface. Since wind and waves don't matter, an eFoil is as much at home on a calm inland lake as it is on the ocean.
How much does an eFoil cost in 2026?
At the makers' own stores, read on 3 October 2026, SiFly's sets cost €4,999 to €7,999 excl. VAT, and Waydoo asks €5,807 to €9,546 in its European store. Lift and Flite both start at $10,999 for a rigid board; Flite's inflatable AIR starts at $8,999. Aerofoils charges €11,799 to €14,999 and Awake €12,990 to €13,990 plus VAT for the VINGA Carve, while Flite's Marc Newson Series starts at about $21,000. Because entry level, mid-range and premium overlap, look up each board on our eFoil comparison page, where 30 current models are listed with their prices.
Where are you allowed to ride an eFoil?
That depends on local rules. Motorized boards are regulated differently from country to country, often lake by lake, so check the rules for the lake or stretch of coast you plan to ride before you go out. For a first session, calm, open water away from swimmers and boat traffic is ideal. Many schools and rental centers around the world let you try an eFoil before you buy one.
Is eFoiling hard to learn?
No. According to Lift, most riders are up and flying within their first session, and Flite says complete beginners can learn to eFoil in minutes on the Flitescooter, its board with a handlebar. You start lying down, move to your knees, then stand up. A coach gets you through it faster and more safely.
