Hydrofoils are expensive, so I wanted to see if I could design and 3D print my own foils to use on my eFoil. I don’t recommend using gyroid infill for a foil wing. It creates one big contiguous space inside, so if water gets in, it can spread through the whole wing. Other infill patterns make separate compartments, so water can’t move around as easily
