I learned the flyboard fairly quickly but was unable to get up (balance) on an efoil. I have yet to try the jetsurf, hopefully balance isn't a huge deal on it. I'm not as light/agile as I was in years past.
Thanks for this video ! Very helpful ! 🙏🏻
Yesterday was my first experience on a efoil. Never even seen them before. Took me 30mins to learn how to fly over water by myself. I am totally hooked and buying one for myself:)
Thank you. Good info. I have both. They are DIY boards, but just as much fun!
The lake I live on has in the summer a lot of pondweed making foiling really difficult. When so, I go and ride my jet board.
When the weed is gone, I ride both boards....
This was VERY helpful, I ordered a jetboard my Doctor was thinking of getting a E foil, this will help his decision.
Great job on this video!!
Cheers
love the spot you are riding at the beginning of the video 😍
Glad you like it! Welcome to Algarve, Portugal
Great video comparison, thank you!! I'm all about the Jetsurf. And now I'm interested in trying out the e-foil too from the differences and riding experience/ state I want to be in on the water. Plus, love the flying carpet + genie in a lamp! haha!
Glad it was helpful!
You are the best this is an amazing evaluation and I learned so much and when you got to the environmental part and you called out all the bullshit you are a superstar!
Cheers 🍻
Great video❤️❤️❤️
Glad you liked it!!
Zero dislikes. This is very appropriate considering the quality of the video.
Very educational as well for aquatic ninjas like myself.
Cheers
Cool man, very good and complete, objective review, very impresst
Glad you liked it!
Thanks man!
Phenomenal review. Objective, and non-partisan. 🤙🌊
Thank you 🙏
Great Video ! thank you
Cheers
@@JetSurfingNation For you .. what board is the most fun.
Well fun is relative term. You can go to local dealer or rentals and try different ones
thank you!
The color of the video is incredible, what camera do you use or what post color process do you use, it has been a long time since I have seen something of such high quality, it looks like celluloid.
Insta 360 camera + Color grading in adobe premier to make colors more vibrant
Very helpful video. My concern with E Foils is the depth limits. How do the hold up to minor impacts or skimming bottom in shallow water?
It’s better not to ride in the shallow areas or you might lose a wing or a prop
Good comparison. Something I don't think you mentioned is that while the jetboard doesn't produce "huge" wakes, it does leave wakes while the foil is nearly wakeless. Probably not a big factor for most, but could be worth consideration depending on where you plan to ride. Cheers.
Good point
I love watching efoil guys ride wave after wave and then get a little to close to shore where it's not deep enough for them and watch them crash. I could watch that all day, hahaha. Oh and yes you are correct about the whole electric is not really better for the environment. So true. Thank you good vid.
I ride an 84 surfjet. Grinning from ear to ear everytime. Have had it for 20 years
Perfect! Do you have videos?
Great video. Just wondering, in your opinion, which one is better suited to choppy seas, as posed to flat lakes? Thanks.
Definitely efoil is better for choppy conditions
Thank you for your opinion about environment I didn't think about it, I thought electricity it's more Safety for environment, but now I'm not sure.
Great video. I'm thinking about to buy electric surfboard. Looking for longer battery life. What would you recommend?
Jetsurf electric has longest battery life
Thanks for the info..👍
Thank you...
You're welcome!
Hey, can you do a video about the foil attachment that jetsurf was planning in 2019? I was really excited but I was just wondering if they abandoned it or not
It was just a prototype and did not go anywhere as far as I know. I don't think efoil can be petrol powered, it would be too noisy compared to electric efoils. However this year there are several jet propelled efoils are coming on the market such as Awake Vinga and Audi Etron
Hi Mike, I own an Onean carver e-surfboard and am thinking of buying the 4.2 pro lift e-foil. Will it be easy to ride, having the experience that I have or should I go for the bigger/easier sport model?
Yes, absolutely! However first find a local efoil school and rent a bigger board to learn it for couple of lessons. 4.2 is a pro board, not for beginners. But after the lessons you won't have any issues!
Why compare? Get an ewave like me and you can get both for the price of a lyft. And have fun.
true but it's not the same though... lift is a next generation efoil like fliteboard. we cant really compare it
How would you describe the foil on the ewave? Also how long does the battery last in foil mode and how long does it take to switch? Did you ever ride an lighter foil like lift or flite? I'm really interested in knowing, cause I own an ewave
the ewave doesn't last nearly as long as either of them though, and you have to buy the hydrofoil separately making the cost 1-2k usd higher than the Lift3
I didn't hear you do a comparison about depth of water & obstacles that could be hit with an eFoil? could you let me know if water depth and hitting a reef or hitting something underwater is a risk since the eFoil goes way under the water? thanks
Just dont efoil where it’s shallow :) 2m plus depth is fine
hey ! If you had to choose one electric jetboard, would it be jetsurf ? ewave? any other ? which is the best , reliable , best battery time ? and in Portugal which documentation do you need to ride ?
It depends where you want to use it. For personal use only marine insurance is needed here but if you do rentals or lessons I don’t know it’s harder probably
I plan to buy an efoil in USA and bring it to South America,, I should be able to disassemble the Efoil for the plan, How challenging is it to ship the batteries, is it very costly because of the weight?
You can ship battery as dangerous goods via Dhl or fedex and take rest with you on a plane. As for prices reach dhl/fedex to check
Would like to get an efoil but the kelp on the California coast prevents that. Would the kelp affect the jet board?.....are there electric jetboards?
There are plenty of efoils already in CA.. find for example spoiled by foil’ in san diego and rent one
Hello there ! Which model of jetboard is the easiest to ride and most reliable for a good price? Thank you!
Get a lesson from a local surf shop to see which they offer
Do you thınk a 2015 model petrol keyboard should be purchased . Is there much dıfferent between the new models and the technologıcal ones.
That’s way too old. They became good after 2018 models
Hi ,
I want to buy used a jetsurf 2018. Do you have an advise what i should check before buying ?
Just take it for a demo ride and see if rides well and clean inside. Nothing much else to worry about
@@JetSurfingNation Thank you !!
What about riding on lakes with lots of waves? It’s better to be on a efoil and above the water to prevent a very choppy drive?
Yes efoil would be ã better choice
Team eFoil for sure, We'd rather fly than swim
Lets fly!!! But jetboards don’t swim lol
where does the electricity come from? EXACTLY
It's funny, I've been into electric dirt bikes for years and I'm just finding out about these and I live next to the water.
А какой efoil на сегодня имеет больший запас хода? Где более объемная батарея? За видео спасибо.
Самая большая батарея значит ефойл будет огромным и тяжелым. Я бы советовал наоборот маленькую спортивную батарею или даже нано батареи как у Fliteboard
I love that jetboard the efoil looks cool also but I want a mobile board I can take with me my car isnt that big. I wonder where I could try this bcz I never ever surfed before and I think mybe just buying a board is too dangerous so I think I need some kind of lessons how to learn to surf first.... Anyone know where I could try this in Belgium ? Love your review, I really think this is the next big thing only thing is the price if it could come down around the 3000euro I think it will be a big hit in the summers but also restrictions will come bcz of accidents on the water and you cannot go on every place on water with this i guess....?
For sure prices are not going down anytime soon with the battery components and lithium shortage
@@JetSurfingNation Mybe a good thing also if they are cheap everybody can buy one and just like those electrique steps accidents will happen more on the water...
JET!!
Its a jetboard for me, i want to be able to olly and jumps wakes and waves and not slice a limb off if i bail
the right question its FLYWAY :)
When will you show it?
What about a jet powered E-foil?
I don’t know any except audi tron efoil prototype . It must be noisy and less riding time
I'm def. for natural power ;)
which is natural ?
I like flying
Not sure if you mentioned the price difference as electric Efoil is only half the price of Jetsurf Electric or gas and it runs longer
Well if you get entry level like Waydoo then yes... But pro level efoils like Fliteboard, Lift etc are very expensive as well.
What about efoil and shallow water, rocks and weeds...
Don’t go in shallow water and weeds )
compare prices as well?
The price is similar. No difference in price
Much better Efoil, you can fly !!!
Is riding the jet board similar to riding a snowboard?
Not really, completely different!
Jetboard is the one to get with gas engine, but very pricey $13k
no need
E foil sucks but I can see the jet board to be more fun. Foils can get dicey at higher speeds.
Don't ever tell me I can't fix a thing I can at least try to put it back the way it was
Родной акцент)
😂
Cost?
10-15k
Which ever one doesn't cost me £10,000 - £15,000
Hola saludos Me Gustaría 1 De Gasolina ⛽
That's not true,that you can't e-foil in Bavaria...that's very individual by lake...
Thank you. Good to know
@@JetSurfingNation In Bavaria you have many lakes(just look at Google maps) and some of them are owned by private person where person can mae some kind of deal and some of them have different restrictions for example on Ammersee is any efoil forbidden, but on Stanbergersee is allowed with permit....that's just example from many...😎🤙
Plat op water wat jy het is reg
Environmentally friendly: Future you has a Tesla and a ejet board.
JETBOARDS more cool
Let's see. One smells bad. One is noisy. One pollutes the environment.........The other one is cool. Really cool and non polluting.
I was comparing jetboards and efoils in General, not specifically petrol jetsurf.. There are many electric boards if the pollution is your concern. Cheers
Bord met daai lang vinne kan mens seermaak
Yours wet suits… whats wrong with you?
😂
I like the Trump flag!
Lol. It’s my Jetsurfingnation flag
There is no comparison. E foil is way better
Hard to say. A lot of people actually prefer jetboards for their fast adrenaline riding and sharp turns.
@@JetSurfingNation those ppl have no idea what they are doing hahaha jk. When ppl send me jet board I tell them it’s trash! But I kitesurf and g foil all the time so I might be bad example
Most surfers think you guys look like assholes and on top of that unless you are Kai Lenny you should just go back home and sit on your couch and eat more chips.
Why bother comparing? One is a small boat with a hull riding on the waters surface and the other is not a boat.
Which is a boat?
Why bother comparing? Because people like me who want to buy one aren’t clear on pros and cons of each type.
I like aggressive high speed riding, I now know not to buy a foil.
Ridiculous comment
Jetboards are so utterly stupid.
The whole point is to have a hydrofoil so you use way less energy and you “fly” above the water.
jetboards are pretty fan. They are much faster and allow you do radical turns and jumps.
for me it depends where we use it, a peaceful lake -> Efoil.. an ocean waves - > jetboard
On the ocean the foil can be fun even when it's a little windy & the foil can rise above the wind chop. And the lakes are usually glassy either way it's all fun...
I would have say the other way around haha.. I think efoil is even more interesting when it's choppy or wavy.. since you are flying you don't feel any
good point! But for me it's harder to efoil on choppy waters. On the lake it seems really smooth feeling
