The Lift Story
How It All Started
Inventing the eFoil
We’ve been riding the products we’ve been making since the beginning, so the constant pursuit for the ultimate ride has always been a part of our DNA. We don’t cut corners. We just obsessively try to perfect.
In 2015, our co-founder Nick Leason - an engineer and avid surfer - came up with the idea for the original eFoil, applying the technology from smart phones, electric vehicles and even drones into a board that would let its rider fly above any body of water without needing to be propelled by wind or waves.
A Revolution
When we announced the eFoil concept, it immediately went viral.
It took years of R&D, components sourcing, design, and engineering, but once it was ready eFoiling took on a life of its own, and we’re now very proud to say that we’ve shipped thousands of eFoils worldwide.
True to our roots
We also continue to perfect our classic foil lineups, working with legendary board shapers and top carbon fiber suppliers to offer the highest-performance foil setups available on the market today. Top professionals from Laird Hamilton to Kai Lenny have trusted Lift’s classic foils in the most extreme conditions and are now part of our ever-growing family, giving us constant feedback that we incorporate into our design processes. We remain 100% committed to consistently holding our products to the highest standards.
