About the Lift5

LIFT5 is a configurable eFoil family rather than one board with one weight. The range runs from the buoyant 5'4 Cruiser through the 5'2 and 4'9 Sport to the compact 4'4 Pro, letting buyers choose easier starts or sharper handling. All use carbon construction and Lift's modular LCS system, which allows the propulsion unit, mast, wings and battery to be separated for transport or changed as skills develop. The official 4'9 Sport package, for example, combines a 67-litre board with the LCS 68 carbon propulsion unit. Lift lists complete weights from roughly 28.6 to 32.0 kg depending on board choice, so the old single 35.6 kg figure overstated the current lineup. This is still premium equipment: selecting the right volume, wing and propulsion setup matters as much as the badge, especially for a first-time buyer.

Best For

Riders wanting a premium modular carbon eFoil
Buyers who want board sizes from stable cruiser to compact pro
Owners planning to change wings or propulsion as skills progress

Performance in Context

Lift does not present one top speed for every LIFT5 configuration on its current product page. Board size, wing, rider and propulsion choice all affect takeoff and speed. The four official configurations span different volumes and rider limits, so compare the exact package rather than applying a single specification to the entire family.

Battery and Charging

The Gen5 Full Range battery is rated at 2.2 kWh, and Lift states up to 90 minutes of riding. Actual time depends on rider weight, wing, speed and conditions. The battery, mast and board separate for transport. Follow Lift's storage and charging instructions and confirm airline or freight rules before travelling.

Availability and Pricing

LIFT5 is a current model. Lift's official 4'9 Sport page lists US$14,999, while other sizes and options may differ. That price is a useful reference for a complete package, not a promise that every configuration, tax jurisdiction or delivery destination will cost the same.
