Question 1

Is e-foiling accessible to beginners?

Accepted Answer

Yes, absolutely! eFoiling is a very intuitive activity. Unlike wingfoiling, you don't need to manage the pull of a wing. Thanks to our personalized coaching in Saint-François, most of our students are able to fly within the first hour of practice.

Question 2

Do I need to be a top athlete to do e-foiling?

Accepted Answer

Not at all. eFoiling doesn't require any particular physical strength. It's primarily about balance and feel. Our state-of-the-art equipment is designed for stability, and we adjust the board's speed to your skill level for a smooth progression.

Question 3

What is the security level during a session with Kawana?

Safety is our priority. Every session includes the mandatory wearing of a life jacket and helmet. In addition, our boards are equipped with an automatic kill switch (in case of a fall, the motor stops instantly) and we provide continuous supervision on the lagoon.

Question 4

Why choose the Saint-François lagoon to discover e-foiling?

The Coulée lagoon offers ideal conditions: calm, shallow water protected from currents. It's the perfect spot in Guadeloupe to learn to fly without being bothered by choppy water, ensuring rapid and safe progression.

We provide all the equipment: the E-Foil board, the life jacket, the helmet, and the protective gear. All you need to bring is your swimsuit, a towel, water-resistant sunscreen, and sunglasses.
