Have you ever wondered what it feels like to skim across the ocean, essentially flying 4 feet from the waters surface? Well turns out a Byron Bay startup run by founder David Trewern, a former kite-surfing world record holder, wondered the same thing and brings to the market Fliteboard, an electric powered hydrofoil gives riders the freedom to ride anywhere, without wind or waves. Emission free, wake free and virtually silent, Fliteboard has ushered in a new category of environmentally friendly powered watercraft, and has achieved global acclaim. The mesmerising gadget is made of premium materials and hovers approximately 70cm above the water. Its speed is controlled by a hand-held Bluetooth remote and it runs on a compact but powerful emission free electric motor, powered by one of the best marine grade smart batteries available, for riding times that can exceed 90 minutes. The new Fliteboard Series 2 offers improved performance across the range; from beginner-friendliness and stability to advanced carving and manoeuvrability. The new range is even more accessible, advanced and responsive. The range includes the “AIR”, the “PRO”, the “ULTRA” and a new version of the “Fliteboard” the most popular board thanks to its versatility. Priced from $17,995, Series 2 is now available to purchase through Fliteboard’s website
