Signature edition E-Foil.

Chronicling the transition to a sustainable electrification of the marine sector.

🏄🏾‍♂️ EFOIL

Announced in September 2023, Fliteboard is releasing the Marc Newson (a well known Australian industrial designer) signature e-foil. This entailed the development of an innovative V-foil using uncompromising construction techniques, resulting in a lighter, stiffer, and more responsive product. The V-foil is made of pure carbon and undergoes autoclave curing, achieving a perfect balance of stiffness and highly efficient hydrodynamics. The design is informed by cutting-edge technology, emphasizing the intersection of art and science to create a product that represents "Pure Performance”.

As one of the signature models, the MN86 e-foil is a versatile product designed to accommodate riders of all levels and body types. It is part of the MN range and is particularly suitable for heavier riders and novices due to its larger size. The MN86 features the MN Dual Drive for propulsion, which combines True Glide and Flite Jet technologies, providing a smooth and efficient riding experience. Its wings consist of a Cruiser Jet 1500C and an MN 1300C, offering stability and control. The board has a weight of 27.5kg, a volume of 86 liters, a length of 5'4", and a width of 26", making it a well-rounded and accessible e-foil option for a wide range of riders.
