What to bring
What to bring
Swimsuit: You will be in the water for most of the lesson, so make sure you wear appropriate swimwear.
Wetsuit or leggings: You'll be starting off on your knees, so we recommend a wetsuit or leggings to provide protection while you practice your balance before standing on the board.
Sunglasses: Bring sunglasses to protect your eyes from the sun's glare reflecting off the water and splashing water.
Sunscreen: Protect your skin from harmful UV rays. See the shopping page for my favorite eco-friendly brands.
Towel: Bring a towel to dry off after your lesson.
Water shoes: You'll be barefoot while foiling, but water shoes will protect your feet from sharp shells and rocks on the beach. Crocs or flip-flops are fine.
Sense of adventure: Most people describe their first eFoiling experience as "magical," so come prepared with a positive attitude and an open mind to learn and enjoy the experience.

Introduction: Your instructor will introduce you to the equipment, including the efoil board, battery, motor, and remote control. They will explain how each component works and how to use them.
