Downwind SUP foiling has always been an exhilarating challenge. At Lift Foils, we've made it our mission to push the boundaries of what's possible, making this incredible sport more accessible and enjoyable for riders of all levels. The Flying Cat Collection is the culmination of that mission, excelling in four crucial areas:
It’s not just about creating great shapes; we're obsessed with pushing the boundaries of board construction and design. The Flying Cat Collection, born from rider feedback and countless hours on the water, is the latest product of our commitment to precision and performance with its meticulously engineered construction and first-of-its-kind shape.
The heart of the Flying Cat's design is its unique catamaran-inspired hull. This groundbreaking shape provides exceptional stability, allowing riders to paddle with more power and confidence. The hull seamlessly transitions into a faceted displacement tail, a design that enhances speed and ensures clean water release as you lift off into flight.
Every aspect of the board's construction is designed for performance. Each Flying Cat is built using a lightweight EPS core, providing the ideal balance of strength and buoyancy. This core is thenvacuum-bagged with premium 3k Japanese Carbon, resulting in a piece of functional art that'sincredibly light and durable.
The combination of materialselection and engineering creates a unique marbled carbon fiber finish that is a testament to form and function. This construction method allows us to fine-tune the board's flex patterns, ensuring consistent performance across a wide range of conditions.
