Flying sword on water? This electric surfboard can do it!

With the environmental protection and energy conservation becoming an important global issue of the times, more and more electric vehicles have emerged, such as electric vehicles, electric buses, electric skateboards, balance vehicles and so on. But the news of electric water personal transport has always been thunderous, raindrops are small, many companies only launched a sample, but there is no actual commercial production plan.

Recently, Laiftfoils in Puerto Rico launched an electric water surfboard, eFoil (hereinafter referred to as eFoil). EFoil is controlled by a wireless controller. It can glide without touching the water surface. It reduces the friction resistance caused by the contact between the sliding board and the water surface and greatly improves the sliding speed. Does it look like "sword flying" in martial arts novels?

Appearance

The eFoil is clean and clean in appearance, full of lines, advanced carbon fiber structure, aluminum foil on the surface to enhance stability while maintaining a cool and smooth feel, and the edges can be their own DIY sculpture, to create their own personality of the surfboard.

Battery

The eFoil uses lithium-ion batteries with a maximum speed of 40km / h and a life span of an hour, and is popular with many extreme-sport surfers when it comes out.

The battery has a BMS battery management system that prevents overcharging, overcurrent, overvoltage, deep discharge, short circuit and overheating. And the battery enclosure meets IP67's waterproof standards to ensure that internal components are protected from moisture and corrosion, and all security-related components include a repetitive backup system. It's worth mentioning that eFoil's batteries are detachable and can be charged for 2.5 hours. If you don't have a single battery, you can also buy a single battery on the official website ($3,000).

Electric machinery

The biggest bright spot of eFoill is that its motors are submerged, and its unique hydrodynamic torpedo design allows people to get out of the water at the most stable speed computed accurately by a computer.

The start is basically the same as that of the ordinary surfboard. First lie on the board and then slowly stand up.

When the station is tired, you can sit down for a while.

Wireless handheld Bluetooth remote controller

Unlike traditional body-directed surfboards, eFoil uses a wireless handheld remote control that displays speed and battery percentages on the screen, like a racing game handle. After the rider makes the corresponding operation, eFoil will respond immediately, such as switching the surfboard, acceleration and deceleration, and automatically adjusting to low power mode at low power.

Convenience

EFoil vehicle weight 13.6kg, not light. But it can be assembled and split into three separate components: panels, motors and wings. Each component carries a bag to facilitate travel.

EFoil has two models: a 168cm x 71cm standard edition, and the other 52.5cm x 63.5cm campaign version. The standard version of the slide is more stable, while the sports version is suitable for speed enthusiasts. Both models offer four colors: carbon black, carbon green, carbon blue and carbon purple. Users can also buy electric motors and foil wings for other forms of motion.

Like its cool functions, its price can be said to be very cool. The official website, which sells for $12,000 (RMB 80,961), has begun accepting bookings for $6,000 (RMB 40,480). I wonder how this water skateboard will experience.
