Two riders and nobody left on shore is the usual problem with filming an eFoil session. The answer used here is to carry one camera and fly another, so the session covers itself while both people are on the water.
The camera side of the kit
An Insta360 X3 rides along on an invisible selfie stick, which is what produces those shots that look like a camera is floating alongside the board with nothing holding it. Overhead work comes from a PowerEgg X fitted with the watersports kit and floats, so it can operate over open water without a landing site being the limiting factor. Between the two you get close, low angles and wide aerials from the same session, then colour grading pulls the two sources together in the edit.
What is under the riders
The boards are a Lift3 and a Lift4 Pro. The setup detailed here is the Lift4 Pro on a 32 inch mast with a 100 Surf V2 front wing and a 36 Glide stabilizer, which is a carving oriented pairing rather than a top speed one. On the apparel side the split is a Platinum Sun kitesurfing jacket on one rider and a Body Glove Pro 3 spring wetsuit on the other, which is a reasonable illustration of how differently two people will dress for the same water.
A session cut as music rather than commentary
There is no talking over the top. It runs as an edited piece set to a cover of Burn the Witch by Metal Johari, continuing a run of versions of that track across this stretch of episodes. Watch it if you want to see what a home filming setup of a 360 camera plus a water capable drone can actually produce with two riders and no crew.
