Manta Foils designs and builds Foil Assist systems and eFoils, led by founder Renaud Barbier, who has been shaping foil design since the early 2000s — from some of the first kitefoils to eFoils in 2019 and Foil Assist systems in 2023. Today the company runs four warehouses (UAE, USA, Europe, Asia-Pacific), a network of 50+ resellers from Hawaii to Sydney, and service centers across the US, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
Fliteboard and Lift build full eFoils, where the motor does all the work. Foil Drive and Manta build Foil Assist systems, which help you get on foil and then let you ride the wave’s energy. Within Foil Assist, Manta’s approach is one modular platform: the TakeOff Evo is a single main unit that accepts battery options from 194 Wh ultra-light to 712 Wh long-range, with a sealed maintenance-free motor and airline-friendly 97 Wh battery packs — instead of a different fixed kit for each use case.
Through our reseller network — more than 50 shops and centers worldwide, from Hawaii to Sydney. Use the reseller locator on this site to find the closest one; most offer demos and know the local spots. If there is no dealer near you, contact us and we will work something out.
Manta Foils products come with up to 2 years of warranty against manufacturing faults. Just as important: the current generation is designed for self-service. Most parts — propellers, pods, connectors, batteries — can be replaced by the rider without shipping the unit anywhere, and service centers in the US, Europe, the Middle East and Asia handle the rest.
Orders ship from the closest of our four warehouses. Typical delivery is 2–7 working days in the US and Europe. Batteries ship fully certified under the applicable dangerous-goods rules, so there is no paperwork on your side.
Whether you’re choosing your first Foil Assist system or looking to upgrade, our team and reseller network are here to help you find the right setup.
