Why an eTow is an excellent tool to learn to foil
'eTow' is a name given to a small electric boat operated by remote control - They can gently pull up your chosen foil board like a really small ski boat.
etow have very little prop wash - so foil flight is stable and controlled. They Stops almost instantly when the remote contol goes underwater - with little weight -they also have little momentum and will stop very close to where you let go - unlike a boat which must turn around and come back and get you.
Our eTow pro's can give you some tuition on how to safely use and steer it, as well as the best methods to get up on your feet and begin your first foil flight. The Fundamental skills required to be a foiler are huge, but we aim to show you that you will get more 'hopping to foil' or 'take off' practice with an etow than you could achieve in the surf on or a wing wing over several months.
​
The eTow is a massive training tool for foilers of all levels - even top foilers will still use an eTow when they can for cross training and to test new foils and boards in controlled environments, as well as launcher units to 'chip in' to wakes and waves. They are great fun in heaps of conditions.
etow board speeds during demos are typically about 5-10 knots - We keep it slow - The Demo Foils are big and blunt and the boards are as big and stable as we can get until your ready to speed it up on your own.

Why Learning to Wing, Parawing or Surf foil are easier with an etow
The Reality is that a R E A L L Y wide Skill set is required to Wing ,Parawing or Surf on Foil. You have to combine Board, Wind Wing, Wind skills, Balance and Foil Flight skills simultaniously to start successfully winging. Mistakes will result in injury. And thats time out of the water.
We reccommend anybody wanting to to start in any foiling discipline start first with an etow demo session to check it out. You will at least get a grip of correct methods of getting up and basics of foil flight. Hopefully we can also deliver some safety tips on how to fall off your board , and really accellerate your take up of this amazing sport.
Once flight on foil is established, Its up to you to continue your journey with maximum time on foil being the goal, be it in the surf (prone) or wind powered, (Wing, Parawing, Sail) or Powered, (efoil, Foil drive etow).
