F-ONE SIGNATURE SERIES MODEL 2012

BAMBOO SURF RANGE 2012

SURF PHILOSOPHY:

If you are a fan of cruising, a committed rider regardless of the conditions, expert surfer or a kitesurfer beginner, it is with you in mind that every year we seek to improve the coherence of our surfboards range, so that everyone and everywhere around the world , you can find the perfect surfboard for the conditions you encounter on your travel journeys or at home.

Some boards are receiving a light lifting since their shapes were already perfectly adapted to their program and required only small adjustments. In contrast, profound changes have taken place on the Signature 5'10" and 6'0" because the stresses generated by a kite on a moving surfboard are very different than those coming from a paddle surfer.

The range of our 2012 surfboards is the most complete yet to date. It is the result of many years of experience, hours of testing, and mainly the result of our passion and hard work; a range that does not sacrifice performance or aesthetics.

Bamboo always...
Precursors in the use of bamboo for our surfboards lineup, we searched again and again to optimize our manufacturing processes that use this wonderful material. Combining his natural qualities with those of other materials to get the best shapes is more than a pure R&D question at F-One, it is a passion, and the end result must be as beautiful as efficient.

SIGNATURE 5'10 x 45cm and 6'0 x 45,5cm - Concave Deck & Quad

Radical innovation, 100% new shapes, two boards that represent the culmination of 15 years of R&D on kite boards dedicated to wave riding. By giving up some surf principles for creating kite references, they are no longer surfboards "diverted" for a kite use, but real surfboards developed specifically for having a kite in your hand, whatever the conditions. Because a kitesurfer does not need a lot of volume to take off, as opposed to a paddle surfer, the volume distribution was optimized through a unique new shape: an inverted concave deck. It allows both to lower the center of gravity and to increase the control by reducing the thickness of the board under the front legs, without affecting the profiles of the rails. The result is a significant gain in controlling your turns. The inverted concave deck allows the use of pads twice as thick under your front legs to further enhance comfort.

What's new in terms of shape do not stop at the deck: the new double concave V-shaped bottom and ultra progressive rocker allow for edging, acceleration, turning radius and radical angles; all this with control and ease. Comfort is also enhanced by the choice of a double concave with V providing a smooth ride through the chop and faster transition from rail to rail.

Equipped with a quad fins setup, the gain in maneuverability allows committed surfing whatever the conditions. Small or large, the waves do not define your commitment; but the ways you enter in your turns are. With the quad design, you will adapt the turning radius with your style, whether tight, fast, or slashed turns. Versatile they are the real kite surfboards.

2 sizes for 2 programs slightly different: The 5'10: for faster, powerful waves and/or in strong winds. The 6'0: in conditions less radical, or to regain stability in the large surf.
