VertiDrive™ – Adjustable Telescopic Mast System
Canadian Patent No. CA 3103526
U.S. Patent Publication No. US 20220194525 A1
Elevate Every Ride
The Halo VertiDrive™ system introduces a completely new dimension to foiling — a Bluetooth-controlled, telescopic mast that allows riders to adjust foil height instantly at the press of a button.
Built upon the same patented foundation as MSLED™, VertiDrive™ unites mechanical engineering with intelligent electronics, enabling precision vertical adjustment without tools or downtime.
From training shallows to deep-water performance, riders can tailor lift, stability, and responsiveness in seconds — making one platform suitable for all conditions and skill levels.

The Value Behind the VertiDrive™ Patent
The Halo VertiDrive™ Patent represents one of the most forward-thinking mechanical innovations in the history of hydrofoiling. Protected under Canadian Patent No. CA 3103526 and U.S. Patent Publication No. US 20220194525 A1, it secures Halo’s exclusive rights to an adjustable, telescopic mast system capable of real-time height control through intelligent electronic actuation.
Unlike traditional fixed-height masts, VertiDrive™ introduces a dynamic lift architecture that adapts to rider skill, water depth, and riding style — all at the press of a button.
This patented design gives Halo a first-to-market advantage in an entirely new category of hydrofoil performance: adaptive lift control.
The patent’s strength lies in its versatility — covering both powered and non-powered hydrofoil boards, as well as future integrations with assist motors, Bluetooth controls, and advanced sensor feedback.
It protects not just a product, but a technology platform that can evolve across multiple water-sports applications.
By securing VertiDrive™ under this broad and defensible patent family, Halo ensures long-term innovation leadership, investor confidence, and a clear competitive edge in the global foiling industry.
