Favourite places to Fliteboard: My favourite/favorite places to ride are always the unexplored. The freedom that Fliteboard offers is to ride conditions, waves and locations that you would never normally be able to reach or easily access. Some places you wait a whole lifetime for the conditions to be right, but now I have my Fliteboard as the ultimate option.
Tom Court is a British kitesurfing champion, who spent more than six years on the freestyle world tour, four years on the Kite Park world tour and several years competing in the Redbull King of the Air. He has competed in almost all kite disciplines, and when he saw the potential of the electric hydrofoil, Tom knew what was next.
“It's definitely the new experiences that have given me the biggest buzz on a Fliteboard.”
Tom’s repertoire includes kite foil racing (1st Aruba Hi-Winds), long distance challenges (Fastest Wingfoil around the Isle of Wight), surf foiling, tow-in big wave riding and carving with wing foils. In 2021 he won the inaugural Flite Cup in Portugal, and since then has taken Fliteboarding to new extremes by riding the biggest waves ever attempted on a eFoil, at Nazaré, alongside Glyn Ovens.
