Very good to see passionate designers. I am loving doing my own designs this year to fit my axis fuselage, you also have a great fuselage to wing connection. I watched very carefully and learned something, about the shorter fuselage for the bigger wings to give manouverability. Makes sense and I hadn't considered that before. It wasn't until this year that I really put all the algorithms together for the different components of high performance design possibility and it is very interesting to see different designers looking to optimise wings through from beginners to more advanced and also for conditions local to the designers while also designing to be able to sell to the rest of the world. I love trying different foils though the majority of types I've ridden have been my own designs. This year I'm up to my 7'th design that I'm moulding and laying carbon into. While CNC is great and I made one, the mess is astounding and I prefer 3D printing the model in parts and then assembling, infusing half shells over top and bottom of the model. The process is quite fast, in my Feb 2 weeks holiday I made 4 new wings! , I think each designer brings their own special ideas and interpretation, delivery to designs that often are superior, for their very particular sets of challenges. I have one board I made with massive concave around my anticipated foot work area. It turned out that while the stability was fantastic, I had not allowed enough space for foot work and it retarded my learning to gybe. Your shaped boards are well thought out and I agree with your concepts. Waterline length is very important, especially so for some of the fully high speed optimised high aspect foils(that can suffer at lower speeds with poor stall angles) or if you intend to ride a very small foil that needs high taxiing speed. At 114kg, I am so pleased to be able to ride from my 765sqcm 800mm span foil up to my very casually foiling 1550sqcm x 1160 span foil and my in between 1145sqcm foil, all of which I designed for low speed low drag efficiency. But for us designers there is always a drive to seek limitations and find ways past them! It is an intellectual attitude toward practical puzzles that splits those who only ride, from those who also design. It's interesting to contemplate with the world wide excitement for winging, that the other wind on water sports are all recieving a little less attention as winging captivates our attention for designing.
Hello, Thank you for your detailed comment. At F-ONE, there is no compromise on quality no matter the product. Our 2022 foil range is our most comprehensive, modular, and accessible one to date. So we are really pleased to know that you appreciate our work and we shared your feedback with the R&D team. Have a really nice day, The F-ONE team
Hello, Regarding partnership, you can send us here : www.f-one.world/contact/ we will look at your request and get back to you, soon as possible. Have a nice day, The F-ONE team
Great to have such a comprehensive explanation of the range. For those of us who can’t access demo kit it’s really useful!!!
Nice edit ! Good job team @F-ONE !

Realy good video Thanx Crew 🙌
Just to say great job. Keep pushing !
can`t wait to ride this stuff 🙂
great way to present your art
👏👏👏👏👏
It would not hurt my feelings one bit if you guys wanted to send some of this gear my way for a review on the channel. Just sayin....
