THIRD GENERATION TECHNOLOGY
STATE OF THE ART HARDWARE
The eFoil runs on an advanced lithium-ion battery powers a silent electric motor that’s mounted on an all-carbon-fiber hydrofoil.
Controlled by a wireless Bluetooth hand controller, riders can fly for up to two hours on a two hour charge–at speeds greater than 30mph.
ULTRA HIGH PERFORMANCE
The Lift eFoil’s brushless motor is a proprietary, maintenance free, direct drive motor–extremely efficient with enough power to pull two riders at once.
Each propeller is polished and hand balanced to perfection before finishing with a hard anodization.
PACKED WITH SAFETY FEATURES
An ergonomic, waterproof bluetooth controller shows battery life, and allows you to swap intuitively between speed and performance settings.
Want to stop while on board? Just release the trigger. For added safety, as soon as the controller hits the water the propulsion automatically stops.
F A Q S
Who can use one
The Fliteboard is perfect for everyone. The beginner surfer can hop on for a try and find their feet with a few tries, but the seasoned surfer will enjoy it too.
“It’s easier than learning how to snow-ski or windsurf, but still challenging to learn to balance on the foil.”
The Fliteboard
The Fliteboard is made of carbon fiber, stainless steel, and aircraft grade aluminium. A hand-held bluetooth remote controls the speed of the board. It runs on a compact but powerful electric motor with a precision German engineered gearbox. It’s virtually silent, and emission- and wake-free.
Safety
Levitate Hamptons requires all its clients wear a safety helmet and life jacket , which we provide.
What material of the boards
The Fliteboard, PRO and ULTRA boards are crafted with advanced PVC and carbon sandwich construction. The timber finish boards are finished in high quality ash top and biax-carbon bottom. The white and black boards are finished in ballistic grade carbon Innegra top and biax-carbon bottom.
Is Fliteboard environmentally friendly
Its battery power means it can be charged using renewable energy. Fliteboard’s hydrofoil efficiency and light weight makes it potentially the most environmentally friendly ‘powered’ water craft (not reliant upon wind or waves) when speed and range is considered.
What is the top speed of a Fliteboard
The top speed of Fliteboard depends on A) The wing used, B) The rider’s weight and height, and C) rider experience. In our testing an 80kg rider using the Flyer wing achieved a top speed of 30MPH. The same rider with the Cruiser wing can achieve a top speed of 25MPH. We expect these performance metrics to improve as we further refine wings, propulsion and propeller for final production.
What is the learning curve like
Learning to Fliteboard is different for everyone. We have seen experienced surfers foiling in five minutes, or take a three to four sessions before they can comfortably balance the eFoil. We have seen people with limited water sports experience get the hang of Fliteboard very quickly, and others that need a number sessions and a few hours of practice. However most riders will be having run instantly, as riding on the board, even when not foiling is rewarding. Similar to riding a bike, with practice, foiling becomes automatic.
Experience balancing on a board of some kind will be a significant advantage. Fliteboard recommends lessons through an approved FlySchool.
