The Ride, The Proof, The Glory
Early eFoil racing in the United States centered on Flite Cup events and a small group of riders pushing electric foil boards through technical courses. Justin Chait is described by Gnarly Harley Adventures as the U.S. Flite Cup winner and by Fliteboard as a performance team rider connected to early Fort Lauderdale Flite Cup racing. The accessible public sources do not provide the exact race day, complete timing table, or formal sanctioning documents, but they are strong enough for a Foiling Freaks first or fun-record entry for the first documented U.S. eFoil race winner found in this search.
Rules of the Beast
The event must be a public race held in the United States using motorized eFoil boards. The first accepted event is the earliest documented U.S. eFoil race winner found online.
