Why This Kit is the Ultimate Choice
The Foil Drive Assist MAX transforms your existing hydrofoil setup into an electric-assisted foiling machine. Delivering maximum thrust, runtime, and versatility, the Assist MAX ensures smooth lift-offs and longer sessions across every foiling discipline. With universal mast track compatibility, it mounts cleanly between your mast plate and board for optimal balance and a sleek top deck.
The Amos Shapes Kruzer foilboard, designed in collaboration with team rider Josh Ku, is fully optimized for Foil Drive integration. Its Recessed Track System (RTS) minimizes drag from the battery, while the Enhanced Connection Window (ECW) ensures seamless Bluetooth transmission. A refined narrow outline, displacement hull, and concave deck provide efficient paddle power, streamlined take-offs, and responsive control — making it ideal for both beginners and experienced riders.

FAQs
1) Can I change my battery without removing the mast?
This board has been designed for maximum performance with the Foil Drive system alongside team rider Josh Ku and the Foil Drive team. To do this we have made the recess as slimline as we can, the result and feedback is that this board is a rocket in the water and up on foil with Foil Drive. Paul (one of the Foil Drive owners) has said this is “the best board he has ever ridden with Foil Drive”. You will still have to remove your mast to change batteries but Foil Drive are developing new hardware to make battery changes easier (more on this over the next few weeks)
2) Can I ride this board without Foil Drive?
Yes, We have designed this boards recess to fit most major foil brands masts.
3) What will battery changes look like?
For a battery change you will have to remove the 4 bolts that attach your Foil Drive to the board. you then have to open the nose cone and replace the battery. To reinstall you will have to latch the nose cone back onto the unit and then reattach the unit and mast to the board via the 4 bolts.
4) Will I need an antenna for bluetooth connection to Foil Drive with this board?
No, in the Kruzer RTS we have installed an Enhanced Connection Window (ECW) in the deck which is located under the logo on the nose of the board and also left a carbon free area in the recess to allow for the best possible connection ability. In saying this, correct connection technique still needs to be used. Please see Foil Drive YouTube videos for more information on this. https://youtu.be/04LnYsvOnlc?si=KbtIS5mN46vrggQv
5) Can I customise dimensions on Kruzer RTS?
Due to the more technical and time consuming nature of building these boards we are not accepting customisations of dimensions on the RTS models.
6) Can I use other Foil Drive products with the Kruzer RTS?
Yes you can use the Foil Drive Gen 2 Slim with the performance and endurance batteries . You can also use the Foil Drive Gen 2 Max with the Power and Sport batteries
