Foil Wing F-one STRIKE V4

Technical information

Thanks to its optimized design and sailing engineering, the F-One STRIKE is a masterpiece of aerodynamics. This fourth version of the iconic wing has been perfected to guarantee new sensations, and therefore unforgettable, high-performance sessions. The new STRIKE features even more of a super intuitive draw with some flexibility that makes it easy to start planning without having to expend a lot of energy or learn a special technique. This STRIKE responds to pumping with immediate power. The STRIKE offers unrivaled softness of traction that allows you to ride effortlessly, as if you were using a smaller, very light wing. The STRIKE's control across the entire wind range is impressive, allowing you to handle gusts with ease. For those who love speed, the wing offers a new sensation of "going forward" that is unlocked thanks to an impressive forward traction that offers fantastic horizontal acceleration. At the low end, it never seems to suffer from air holes or headwinds, maintaining constant glide and exceptional upwind capabilities. Thanks to its rigidity, acceleration and massive pop and hangtime, the STRIKE will also make you passionate about freestyle. For your rotations, the wing easily turns on its own, allowing you to perform all your tricks and try new ones. This STRIKE is much more than a new model; It's a perfect blend of performance, lightweight feel and smooth traction. The design of the STRIKE has been completely revised. The central strut is now completely straight, which allows you to better control its deformation and possible twisting, while reducing resistance. As a result, the infill is a little lower and warps less, and is extended almost all the way to the back. The innovative load spreader is reduced due to the increased weight, especially during free flight. Dihedral angle has also been added to improve stability and keep the wingtips out of the water while pumping and driving. New leading and trailing edge tensions, as well as a refined radial cut, help keep the profile smooth and stable for incredible performance and control. Careful panel layout, precise load management and staggered stitching continue to provide exceptional profile control, especially at the top end. The use of HITEX on the inflatable structure and TECHNOFORCE™ 52g and 66g on the canopy offer great resistance to elongation, and therefore greater durability and performance. The materials are also perfectly distributed to account for the different tensions, high pressures and weight distribution in each specific area. Small radial cuts are implemented on the wingtips and rear of the strut to distribute stress. Aligning the fiber exactly along the load paths means that elongation can be controlled to a degree never before seen on a wing. Located on the rear of the mast, our load spreader made from overlapping panels of rigid Mylar and Dacron further helps maintain the profile sleek and efficient, ensuring maximum stability, performance and longevity. Thanks to this engineering and sail design work, the new STRIKE is an ideal compromise between performance, control and softness. The wing feels stiff enough for any pilot to perform and maintain control, but at the same time remains very progressive, offering smooth and quick forward traction. The new STRIKE is equipped with the new interchangeable handle system. Soft, hybrid or hard handles, you can now customize the handles to your preferences.
