Learn to fly on the world’s leading brand of eFoils.

Atomic EV runs all the Fliteschools in the greater Auckland region, across seven locations with experienced trainers. We have a range of boards to suit most people’s skill levels, from novices to intermediate eFoilers.

Fliteschool Locations

We offer an extensive range of Fliteschool locations around the Auckland region, depending on your experience and interests, and whether you’d like to combine your Flite experience into a larger package in a stunning location.

While we try to meet location preferences the location ultimately depends on the weather, tides, and trainer availability.

Fliteschool EFoil Options

At most locations we offer three Flite eFoil options for you to choose between at no additional charge. The Fliteboard 100 litre is the standard choice for beginners wanting to learn how to eFoil, the PRO for those with previous water sports experience or lighter weight, and the Flitescooter for people with no experience that want to be eFoiling in minutes.

If you’re looking to buy an eFoil but are unsure whether to choose from the Flite or the Aerofoils range contact us to arrange your lesson with a customised combination of eFoils from both the leading brands.

EFoil Trainers

We have a range of experienced trainers that will help you get foiling, have fun and build your confidence and skills, even if you have no previous water sports experience.

• Arnaud is keen on all water sports and a very experienced kite surfer. When the wind is too low for his kites you’ll see him eFoiling off the North Shore beaches.
• Colin is our most experienced eFoil trainer, and has been riding and building his own eFoils for many years. His usual eFoil spots are around the Eastern beaches.
• Gene is from the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei hapu, and is a very experienced surfer and former surfboard instructor. He usually starts from his local Ohaku Bay and cruises around the harbour.

Book a Fliteschool Lesson

All lessons are 90 minutes, including a comprehensive safety briefing by your trainer and usually at least 60 minutes on the water with your choice of eFoil.

• A one-on-one lesson with an instructor is $279 (including GST).
• Two people can take a lesson together with the same instructor at $239 per person.
• In some cases we might approve a larger number of people in the lesson, particularly for groups that have prior eFoiling experience.

Besides booking a lesson for yourself you can also gift someone you love the experience of a lifetime.

Please contact us directly for larger corporate or private group events, or for longer activity packages.

EFoil Safety

All our locations have Maritime New Zealand approval for the safety measures we put in place, our eFoils are certified for training and trainers are all first-aid certified and themselves experienced eFoilers.

But please note that eFoiling is an adventure activity with a degree of risk due to falls and collisions, risks which we strive to minimise but which cannot be completely eliminated. All clients will receive a comprehensive safety briefing and provided with a helmet and impact vest which must be worn at all times while on the water. Clients must obey the trainer instructions at all times.

We strongly encourage clients to bring a wetsuit if they have one and a change of warm clothing. We can arrange wetsuits in most sizes free of charge with prior notice. Although winters in Auckland are comparatively mild even in summer it can be cool eFoiling while wet and weather conditions can change quickly. Clients should expect to be getting wet as falls are part of the process of learning to eFoil.

Before the Fliteschool Lesson

Our trainer will provide all the necessary explanations on-shore before you go onto the water. But if you’d like to be extra prepared beforehand we’d suggest you may like to watch the following videos before your lesson.
