The founder
The founder
AeroLift started with a birthday gift: a two-prong repair tool identical to the one my grandfather gave me fifteen years ago, carrying the same flaws it always had.
Clubs got faster, balls got smarter, and lasers started reading the yardage, while the thing in everyone’s pocket was still the same two-prong tool our grandfathers carried.
So I started building: a tool that starts below the mark and lifts it upward, leaving the roots untouched. I’m Graysen, and I built AeroLift.
Form-factor prototypes built
Fully mechanical, no electronics
CO2 test rigs, the fourth works
Designed and made in the USA

Twenty prototypes. Four CO2 test rigs, and a working tool that proves the principle, lift from below.
01
Press
The motion
One press
A single button opens the cone and seals it over the ball mark. Set the tool down, press firmly, and a nose safety makes sure it only fires against the ground.
No technique to learn. A first-timer gets a clean repair the first time they pick it up.
02
Lift
The lift
From below
Closed-tip spokes slip into the soil through narrow points beneath the mark, and a measured burst of CO2 is sent upward, raising the compressed turf from underneath.
It runs on a natural force, the same gas the green already breathes.
03
Level
The result
Flush again
Lifting the tool away leaves the surface level and the green ready to putt, with the turf left to heal on its own.
Nothing pries the surface from above, so the roots stay whole.
04
Heal
The green
Roots intact
With the lateral roots intact, the spot keeps moving water and nutrients on its own, and the green knits back together quickly.
Recovery is defensibly under a day, against a 13.6-day baseline for a typical repair.
05
Last
The build
Mechanical
Fully mechanical, powered by a cartridge of natural CO2, with no battery, no app, and no screen. Nothing to charge and nothing to wear out.
Made to last for years and be handed down, the way the game itself is handed down.
