FLITEBOARD
Fliteboard AIR Series 6
Revolutionary inflatable construction — the stow-anywhere eFoil for superyachts
The Fliteboard AIR is the brand's inflatable eFoil, built around a revolutionary inflatable construction that Fliteboard describes as designed so owners and crew "no need to worry about chips, dings or dents." It rolls down for travel, deploys on the swim platform in minutes, and rides on the same Flite Jet 2 propulsion and Flite Controller that power the rest of the Series 6 line — giving guests a genuine eFoil experience without the lazarette real estate that a rigid carbon board demands.
Positioned by Fliteboard as "accessible and durable, the perfect setup for everyone" and aimed at beginner to intermediate riders, the AIR is the right board to put in the hands of charter guests, owners' families, and first-time foilers. For captains and chief stews running a full water-toy programme, it is the efoil that finally fits — compact enough to stow alongside SUPs and towables, and forgiving enough to hand to a guest who has never flown before.

Stowage-Friendly for Tight Lazarettes
The AIR's inflatable construction rolls down for transport and storage, making it the efoil that finally fits on yachts where rigid carbon boards would otherwise take over a full toy locker. Fliteboard markets it explicitly for "easy transport & storage."
Charter-Guest Safe by Design
Fliteboard positions the AIR for beginner to intermediate riders, calling it "inflatable, stable, forgiving" and "perfect for sharing with friends and family." The soft inflatable deck is forgiving on falls and on the yacht's paintwork if a guest mishandles the board at the platform.
Full Fliteboard Ecosystem
The AIR runs Flite Jet 2 propulsion, a 31.5″ mast, the Cruiser Jet 1500 C wing, and the Flite Controller with anti-glare screen — the same ecosystem as the rigid PRO and ULTRA boards. Batteries, wings, and accessories cross over, so yachts already carrying Fliteboard kit extend existing parts and training.
Why the Fliteboard AIR for Your Superyacht?
The AIR solves the single biggest problem with carrying an eFoil on a charter yacht: storage. Rigid carbon eFoils typically demand a dedicated chock, custom padding, and a large share of the toy locker. Fliteboard's inflatable AIR rolls down for travel and stows flat, which means a 30–45 m yacht can finally offer foiling as a standard guest option alongside SUPs, Seabobs, and towables — without sacrificing the inflatable kayak or the wakeboard rack.
It also solves the charter guest problem. Most guests have never ridden a foil before. Fliteboard markets the AIR to beginner and intermediate riders and describes it as "inflatable, stable, forgiving," which is exactly the right profile for a chief stew handing the board over to a first-time rider during a three-hour anchor stop. The soft top deck is kinder on falls than a rigid carbon layup, and Fliteboard's own language — "no need to worry about chips, dings or dents" — is written for exactly this use case.
From a programme-planning perspective, the AIR keeps you inside the Fliteboard ecosystem. The Flite Jet 2 propulsion unit, 31.5″ mast, Cruiser Jet 1500 C wing, Flitecell battery range, and Flite Controller are shared with the rigid PRO and ULTRA boards — so a fleet that already carries a Fliteboard PRO or ULTRA gains a second rider station without duplicating chargers or controllers. Mercer Yachting supplies the AIR as a Fliteboard authorised reseller through our Malta operation and delivers to Antibes, Palma de Mallorca, Monaco, Genoa, Athens, and Split, with worldwide freight to any nominated port or agent.

Frequently Asked Questions
Reviewed by Ryan Rizzo, Operations Lead · Updated 23 May 2026
How small does the Fliteboard AIR pack down for storage?
The AIR uses an inflatable construction that rolls down for transport and storage — Fliteboard markets "easy transport & storage" as a primary benefit. The exact packed dimensions depend on how tightly the board is rolled and which bag is used; contact Mercer Yachting for the current Fliteboard packed-size figures before you plan a locker fit-out.
How long does it take to inflate before a session?
Fliteboard does not publish a specific inflation time on the AIR product page. Allow a few minutes using an electric or high-volume hand pump in the same way crew would inflate a premium SUP. Our team can specify a 12 V electric pump alongside the AIR so the board is session-ready from the swim platform without crew effort.
How durable is an inflatable eFoil compared to a rigid carbon board?
Fliteboard's own language is: "No need to worry about chips, dings or dents." The inflatable construction is explicitly designed to handle "trips and boat/dock launches without damage concern." For charter boats where guests handle the board at the platform and where storage chocks cannot always be perfect, that is a meaningful durability upgrade over rigid layups.
Is the AIR beginner-safe for guests who have never foiled?
Yes — Fliteboard positions the AIR for beginner to intermediate riders and describes it as "inflatable, stable, forgiving" and "perfect for sharing with friends and family." The standard Cruiser Jet 1500 C is one of Fliteboard's most forgiving all-round wings, and the soft inflatable top deck is kinder on a rider's first attempts than a rigid carbon deck.
What kind of battery range does the AIR deliver?
The AIR runs the Flitecell battery range — Flitecell Nano (marketed for "lightweight responsiveness") and Flitecell Sport (marketed for "more ride time"). Fliteboard does not publish runtime figures on the AIR product page. For session planning on a charter yacht, Mercer Yachting can share the current Flite runtime guidance and recommend the right spare-battery count for your guest programme.
How is the AIR different from the Fliteboard PRO?
The PRO is Fliteboard's rigid composite board for all skill levels; the AIR is the inflatable, roll-down version aimed at beginner to intermediate riders with an emphasis on easy transport and storage. Both share the Flite Jet 2 propulsion, 31.5″ mast, Flitecell battery range, and Flite Controller, so they slot into the same ecosystem on board. Choose AIR where storage is tight and guests are new to foiling; choose PRO where a dedicated locker slot is available and riders range across all levels.
Do you service Fliteboards in Malta?
Yes. Mercer Yachting operates from Marsaskala, Malta and supplies Fliteboard through authorised channels. Routine maintenance, battery storage advice, and warranty coordination are handled locally for yachts berthed in Malta, and we can arrange dispatch of parts to any Mediterranean port for crews in season.
What warranty applies to the Fliteboard AIR?
Every AIR we supply ships with the current Fliteboard manufacturer warranty registered to the end user or the yacht. Specific coverage periods for the board, battery, and propulsion unit are confirmed in the written quote — contact Mercer Yachting for the current Fliteboard warranty terms at the time of order.
