    Guys, welcome back to another episode in my life. Another week goes past and the last week of 2023 for me was taken up with a last min trip to Dubai. The centre of the world at the moment, where COP28 the climate summit is taking place. It is the perfect time to be bringing the idea of electric hydrofoil racing to the world. As you all know I have been riding for and developing Fliteboard for a while now, as the E-foil becomes a staple part of the emerging new inventions around hydrofoils. It is now clear that E-foiling is not only a massive industry but also an amazing way to innovate on the water, for transportation, enjoyment, utility and an enviromental option, not just for its zero carbo emotions but also for its reduction in friction and energy use whilst on the water... Well, Fliteboard is at the head of the curve, having designed the best E-foil available to date, the proof is in the pudding when it comes to racing.
    I took my new ‪@Fliteboard‬ ULTRA-L gold, 75cm mast and race wing setup to Dubai, used the guys from the Surf Center Dubai to sort me a battery, and I entered the open even for the Dubai Efoil Championships. After winning the first flight cup in Portugal last season... it was fun to get back into some racing with a good host of competition...
    I could not be happier to have taken 1st, to have chosen to Finnish my year in this way. I really look forward to seeing how electric foil racing will develop in 2024 and what ways this amazing invention can revolutionise how we use the water!!!
    All questions in the comments, subscribe for more shreddery each week. Stay stoked!!

      Yes I think to really understand the foil it helps for sure to do it all!! But the efoil is an amazing way to get the most time on the foil itself for sure 🙏🤟

    The jump at 13:33 is seek, at what speed was this?

    • @tomcourtkite
      @tomcourtkite  7 месяцев назад

      Probably 38+ they all riding on level 20 and using trigger for throttle!!!

    • @KV-lj6el
      @KV-lj6el 7 месяцев назад

      ​@@tomcourtkite thanks for the info, 20 is still too much for me, I am currently at 17, jumping around 28-31 kmh. I noticed higher speed leads to more stability, but 38+ sounds scary.

    E Foils are pretty amazing but a bit out of my price range at the moment. I bet Richard Branson has one.

    • @tomcourtkite
      @tomcourtkite  7 месяцев назад

      Yes price is an issue, but as they develop this tech will become more available for sure! I bet Richard does have one! 🤟👌

    It is a nice toy but I don't like the playboy-like scene that is surrounding it. Dubai has become a symbol of an irresponsible planet-destroying lifestyle. For me this has 'contaminated' this in itself fun product. I would be embarrassed to be seen with it.

    • @tomcourtkite
      @tomcourtkite  7 месяцев назад +1

      Interesting take, for sure Dubai is the Center of what could be considered ‘unsustainable lifestyle’ however it is also the Center of innovation and change… so it depends how you see the future, will change and development of more environmental products save us… or will going backwards save us!??
