THE FOILING COLLECTIVE
The Foiling Collective , Littlestone www . thefoilingcollective . com
The Foiling Collective is the seaside school dedicated to foiling sports , offering both lessons and equipment sales . Based on Littlestone beach in their ( soon to be expanding ) shoreline facilities with perfect flat water and reliable wind , the spot offers consistent side to onshore conditions for wing-foilers . But it ’ s not just the wing-foilers that have got everyone talking , oh no , pave the way for a new and very exciting offering . Taking the world by storm , it may just be time to try quite possibly the coolest activity on the planet : E-foiling , which is essentially an electric , battery operated surfboard , set to soar around 80cms above the water on a hydrofoil wing . A handheld controller puts the power at your fingertips , giving you the sensation of flying on a magic carpet in just a matter of hours . The E-foils are nearly silent and environmentally conscious ; interact with the nature around you without imposing on it .
Fancy a go ? The Foiling Collective are now offering lessons and perfect flat water conditions to ride . Book onto a private group lesson headed up by BKSA qualified instructors , or if you ’ d prefer a 1-2-1 session , experience two hours in the water with a dedicated instructor . Join the E-foil revolution and we promise you won ’ t look back .
