Flite, a Brunswick Corporation brand and leader in electric hydrofoil technology, has unveiled the Fliteboard RACE in collaboration with Mercury Racing. This new eFoil, showcased at the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, is engineered for elite riders who prioritize speed, precision, and control.
The Fliteboard RACE features a long, narrow shape and a precision-tuned integrated kicker that allows riders to push harder into turns. It also boasts optimized mast placement and a custom RACE impeller designed to deliver higher RPMs, enabling it to reach top speeds of 34 mph, which sets it apart from most e-foils that typically max out around 30 mph.
The integration of FLITELab surf foiling wings into the setup further enhances its performance capabilities. With three wing sizes available in the Flux range, riders can confidently push their limits.
Nick Stickler, president of Flite, emphasized the significance of this collaboration with Mercury Racing, stating that it marks a pivotal advancement in their brand and technology leadership. The Fliteboard RACE is designed for competitive eFoilers and performance-driven athletes, featuring motorsport-inspired design elements that reflect its high-performance focus.
As the excitement builds, enthusiasts are eager to experience the Fliteboard RACE firsthand, with reports on its performance expected in the near future.
