Foil Drive Assist Max

Electric foil assist that unlocks new dimensions of riding

Foil Drive Assist MAX is an advanced foil assist system designed to add extra power, more time on the water, and entirely new riding possibilities to your existing foil setup.

Imagine this: the wind drops, the wave is too far, or there’s not enough speed for takeoff.
With Foil Drive, simply add a touch of power, get up on foil, and keep riding.
No paddling, no wing, no frustration.

This system acts as a motor for your foil, mounted to the mast, enabling easier takeoffs, more reliable starts, and greater freedom in all conditions. Foil Drive does not replace traditional foiling—it enhances it. When the motor is off, the pure sensation of flying above the water remains.

Foil Drive Assist MAX is designed as the most versatile foil assist system, offering the perfect balance between power, endurance, and weight. Suitable for surf, wing, downwind, wake, and flatwater foiling.

With the powerful High Power V2 motor and MAX High Power battery, it delivers longer sessions, easier takeoffs, and faster progression across all disciplines.

Who is Foil Drive Assist MAX for?

Foil Drive Assist MAX is designed for foiling enthusiasts who want more time on the water, easier learning, and more riding possibilities.

Recommended for:

• Wing foilers for easier light-wind starts
• Surf foilers for catching waves without paddling
• Downwind riders for longer and more reliable runs
• Beginners as support for easier takeoffs
• Advanced riders for more freedom and progression
• Anyone who wants to foil more, longer, and in more conditions

Key Benefits of Foil Drive Assist MAX

Power when it’s needed
Foil Drive acts as a motor for your foil, used only when needed—for takeoff or acceleration. Once flying, the motor is switched off and the ride continues naturally.

More foiling in more conditions
Foil Drive makes it possible to ride even in light wind, small waves, or flatwater conditions.

Faster and easier progression
As a foil assist system, it significantly simplifies learning pump, dock starts, and first takeoffs.

MAX High Power battery for longer sessions
The MAX High Power Battery (594 Wh) delivers more time on the water and up to 40–45% longer sessions.

High Power V2 motor for more thrust
The motor provides increased low-end thrust, making takeoffs easier and more efficient.

Compatible with most foil systems
Foil Drive is designed to work with nearly any foil setup.

Robust and waterproof construction
IP68 protection ensures reliable performance in all conditions.

Foil Drive Technology

Foil Drive Assist MAX is built on an advanced combination of battery technology, efficient propulsion, and refined hydrodynamics.

The High Power V2 motor delivers strong thrust at low speeds and improved efficiency.

The MAX High Power Battery (594 Wh) unlocks maximum performance and activates Boost Mode (+28%).

The entire system works as a smart assist—enhancing the ride without compromising the natural foiling feel.

Foil Drive vs eFoil – what’s the difference?

Foil Drive and eFoil may seem similar at first glance, but they represent two fundamentally different approaches.

eFoil is a fully electric board where the motor powers the ride at all times. Foil Drive, on the other hand, is an assist system used mainly for takeoff or support, while most of the ride happens without power.

	eFoil	Foil Drive (foil assist)
Drive	Motor runs continuously	Motor used only for assist
Feel	Electric ride	True foiling feel
Weight	Heavier system	Lightweight add-on
Equipment	Dedicated eFoil board	Existing foil setup
Purpose	Fully powered riding	Takeoff and support
Best for	Independent electric riding	Riders seeking more freedom and progression

Foil Drive is ideal for those who want to preserve the authentic foiling feel while benefiting from electric assistance.
