In 2021, Fliteboard set the electric hydrofoil (eFoil) surfboard speed world record, clocking 34 miles per hour. The company’s 2.2 series ($12,595) only improves on the watercraft, with a titanium-plated corrosion-resistant battery; more precise controls on the wireless handheld remote control; and an even quieter and more efficient electric motor. “We’re able to slow the motor down without sacrificing speed to create more torque that propels you forward,” says Fliteboard founder David Trewern. Fliteboard is also the smartest eFoil: An all-new companion app captures real-time ride data, including ride time, distance, speed, and turns, and shares it with fellow eFoil fans for kudos across the globe.
