What's up everybody. Just made a quick video of me and some friends doing some e-foiling over at Cooper. Check it out!

Electric Foilboarding in Paradise

Deep Bay Watersports also has e-foil boards available for rent now out of Oil Nut Bay's Marina Village if you want to try!

Awesome! Looks like a lot of fun and the boards I've seen in CGB have been very quiet!

I really wanted to try this but Deep Bay Watersports were still working out the insurance a few weeks ago :-(

Ahhh man I'm sorry - that's unlucky timing. Roy finally got the insurance sorted and they are now ready to go!

Looks like a lot of fun. I would as a courtesy try to stay out of the Mooring areas.

Saw one of those in Leverick last month - they looked awesome! The whole crew wanted to try one!

Have to check it out in March!

They look like fun to ride but everyone needs to get these things out of the anchorages. Someone is going to get killed. They blast through the anchorages here amongst the boats and swimmers all the time. Nothing should be moving over bare steerage in an anchorage. Not a tender, not a jet ski or this thing.

Wow! Things have really changed since I was there a few years ago ! Although these things look really cool and something I would try , I am also the lazy on a pool noodle gal behind the boat and this looks a wee bit scary 😧

Especially in the hands of newbies

I DO want to try one! Maybe away from boats and swimmers
