Electrical assistance has become increasingly popular in recent years. Electrical assistance can make the sport more accessible, help paddlers reach places that once felt out of range, and add confidence when heading out on longer trips. From fully integrated electric boards to modular accessories, there are now many ways to enhance your time on the water, making each session a bit easier, safer, and more fun and memorable.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boost Surfing<\/a> is a manufacturer of electric fins and e-surfboards intended to change the surfing and paddleboarding experience. For the last half a decade, Boost Surfing has focused on extending what is possible, giving surfers and paddlers the extra drive to go farther, catch more waves, and explore with less effort. With a compact motor and intuitive control, their Boost Fin Long Range delivers an added burst of speed right when it matters, whether that means chasing a wave or pushing through flatwater. We sat down with the team to learn more about their design and its origins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SUP World Mag: Boost Surfing has been around since 2020, but the story started a bit differently than most people realize. How did the concept actually come together?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boost Surfing:<\/strong> It really started with a simple observation by our founders\u2014a mechanical engineer and an entrepreneur\u2014<\/strong>both avid water sports enthusiasts who used to spend a lot of time in the lineup. At some point, they realized that in surfing, about 90% of your time is spent just fighting to get back to the peak. The original goal was to help surfers save their energy for the actual wave. So the team took it to Kickstarter back in 2019-2020, and the interest was huge. But notably, the people asking the most questions were actually paddling enthusiasts. The folks wanted to go further, not just catch waves. That feedback led the Boost team to update the original tech and eventually build the Boost Fin Long Range, which is really geared toward that touring and adventure crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
