THIS IS WHAT STARTED IT ALL

First production Foil Assembly was cast mid summer of 1988. It had blunt and bulky edges, and huge stabilizer fins. The heavy black powder coating was used to smooth out the rough casting surfaces which caused parasitic drag and rendered the foil unusable. Top speed recommended was 17 mph.

In the years to follow many changes were made, such as to widen the strut cross section for more strength and better water splitting, thinning out all edges... including fuselage nose and tail. Reducing size of rear stabilizers and adding front wingtips. Polishing the entire foil assembly many Air Chair enthusiasts during this period were paying big bucks for these modifications although this flat blade technology was at its end.

During this time of hydrofoil history Air Chair was deeply involved in the development of an industry shattering new concave blade design. After many years of research and development the new concave hydrofoil design of the future became available.

If the first years sales along with the unbelievable positive customer response is any indication, the new adjustable performance variable lift Air Chair is destined to be the industries leader well into the next century.

In the beginning mode the undulated surface of the front wing mixing with planar surface of the rear creates a solidity of ride never before possible with the outdated duel flat surface front and rear blades. With added variable lift the Air Chair has developed a certain winner.....completely eliminating the frustration often experienced by the new rider.

As the riders skills improve and higher performance is desired a change to the concave rear blade in the advanced mode is all that is necessary. This immediately opens a whole new arena of spectacularly quick performance never before available with the early flat bladed design.

Yes there is more for those who dare, just spin the concave rear blade 180 degrees and you’re in the pro mode. In this mode the performance escalates to somewhere in the next galaxy.
