NORTH SALT LAKE WATER ACTIVITIES FIELD GUIDE
Above the Surface: Learning to E-Foil the Wasatch Way
Hands-on Flite Board e-foil lessons that pair one-on-one coaching with time to ride solo, letting you master a battery-powered hydrofoil that can top 25 mph.
Above the Surface: Learning to E-Foil the Wasatch Way.
On still water in the North Salt Lake area, a slender board and a hidden wing lift you above chop and wake alike; the Flite Board E-Foil uses a battery-driven motor and hydrofoil to convert surface tension into a near-silent, soaring glide. Lessons focus on rapid skill acquisition through expert, one-on-one instruction and leave riders with hours of solo time to practice the uncanny sensation of flight.

Flite Board E-Foil — electric, featherlight, fast
A battery-powered motor mated to a hydrofoil lets the board lift cleanly from the surface; riders control thrust with a Bluetooth handhold and can reach speeds in excess of 25 miles per hour for a true sense of speed and freedom.
One-on-one coaching to get you flying
Instruction comes from an experienced E-Foil coach who delivers focused, one-on-one lessons designed to accelerate progress so you spend the bulk of your session riding and refining your technique.
Zero resistance — a floating sensation
Once on the foil the board offers near-zero surface resistance, producing a uniquely buoyant, almost silent glide that separates e-foiling from every other paddle- and motor-sport.
What the day feels like
How the session unfolds
Sessions combine targeted instruction with open-water practice: an initial coaching block gets you comfortable with balance, the Bluetooth throttle and foil dynamics, then remaining time is allotted for solo riding so you can stitch those skills together and chase speed and distance on your own.
