Frequently asked questions
We get a lot of questions about the Stoke Foil Boost system. These are some of the most common ones. If you have a question that we have not answered here head over to our Help Centre or reach out and we can help you directly.
How much does the Stoke Foil Boost weigh?
The whole Stoke Foil Boost weighs under 3.8kg.
Will the Stoke Foil Boost attach to my foil?
Yes, the universal mast mount is designed to attach to 99% of current foil masts.
Is it easy to attach?
Yes, the universal mast mount can be fitted or removed from any foil mast in less than one minute. If necessary, adjusting the receiver cable length and attaching the cable guides will only take another couple of minutes.
Why mount at the top of the mast?
By mounting the drive unit at the top of the mast the unit is clear of the water when foiling.
Can the cable guides be removed?
The cable guides are designed to be small and hydrodynamic so you don’t need to remove them every time, however they are attached using non marking adhesive strips that can be easily removed by pulling the end horizontally.
How large is your battery capacity?
The battery capacity, paired with the intelligent Battery Management System has been sized to provide over 50 launches whilst remaining sleek and light in its design. We also have different size batteries available. Including the Travel, Sports and XR Battery.
Why attach a receiver to the top of the board?
Due to the physics of transmitting through water and local regulations of transmission power levels, a small receiver on the board is the best way to ensure consistent communication at critical times. We also have an underboard receiver available.
What board and foil size do you recommend?
The recommended board size is above 110% of rider weight (1.1x rider weight) and the recommended foil surface area is above 15x rider weight. As you get more experienced, smaller boards and foils can be used although this will reduce battery usage duration.
How long does it take to charge?
Less than 2 hours for a full charge. There is also a fast charger available.
Are there different charger plugs available?
Yes, there are AU/NZ, US, and EU plugs available for the charger.
What foiling disciplines can I use it for?
Almost all of them! The Stoke Foil Boost is suitable for Wing Foiling, SUP Foiling, Prone Foiling and Wind Foiling. We don’t recommend it for Kite Foiling.
What does the controller attach to?
At less than 10cm long and 4cm wide the controller can securely attach to a wide range of wings and paddles. It works perfectly on the handles of a wing, a SUP paddle and is also comfortable handheld when Prone foiling.
How long is the warranty?
Every Stoke Foil Boost comes with a 12-month limited warranty for manufacturing defects. An extended warranty is also available. For further information on the warranty, please refer to Warranty.
