Lift has proudly spent over a decade building high-quality performance hydrofoils and foil boards from our home base factory in Puerto Rico. Shipping now.
Lift started in 2010 as a family-run shop in Puerto Rico. In 2015, co-founder Nick Leason — an engineer and lifelong surfer — designed the original eFoil, adapting technology from smartphones, electric vehicles, and drones into a board that flies above the water without needing wind or waves. Lift shipped its first commercial eFoil, the LIFT1, in 2018, and has released five eFoil generations since, leading up to today's LIFT5 and LIFTX.
Every Lift eFoil is built around the Lift Connect System (LCS) & a tool-free, click-and-lock setup that lets riders swap masts, propulsion units, wings, and batteries in seconds, no tools required. Paired with a carbon-fiber board, LCS is what makes Lift eFoils fast to rig and easy to reconfigure as your riding changes. The current lineup spans LIFT5 F for new riders, the flagship LIFT5, and LIFTX for powered surf and downwind foiling, alongside Foils hardware, boards, masts, and foil wings, for unpowered wing and surf foiling.
Lift has shipped thousands of eFoils to riders in more than 40 countries, backed by a global network of 300+ demo locations. Every eFoil includes a 1-year limited warranty, with optional extended coverage through Lift Protection • Powered by SureBright.
