Foil Wing F-one SWING V4

Technical information

The F-One Swing thanks to its stability, lightness, maneuverability and control is the ultimate sail for riding the waves and going downwind, all while also allowing you to make the most of all conditions. Its impressive balance and control also make it a perfect glider for freeriding. The fourth version of the SWING benefits from a refined design and inherits all the evolutions of the new, and fourth edition, of the STRIKE. With its refined design, the fourth version of the SWING offers first-rate sensations while providing controlled speed to keep the foil under control regardless of the conditions. The new SWING offers an excellent planing start with easy pumping thanks to its natural flexibility. This will allow every rider, regardless of their level, to use a smaller surface area for even greater maneuverability. The SWING continues to benefit from a compact design and short wingspan, making it exceptionally easy to maneuver and navigate. The positioning of the hands will also be optimal, and never too high, throughout the session. The SWING is always ready to glide on the slightest wave while remaining light and stable in free flight. She holds the air perfectly in neutral when turning through the waves and flies perfectly, leaving you free to harness the power of the wave with little resistance. Furthermore, it generates power immediately, and this instant power can prove crucial when exiting a wave or starting from the water to safely exit the impact zone when necessary. Offering effective upwind, this fourth edition of the SWING allows you to enjoy long, effortless downwinds. The SWING is more intuitive and comfortable than ever and remains super stable, light and balanced, all while maintaining a certain softness in the traction. This fourth version is the ideal compromise, offering performance in total control and a certain flexibility. It also provides excellent balance across the entire wind range. Both beginners and experienced riders will appreciate its gentle feel and ease of use. The central strut is now completely straight, which allows you to better control its deformation and possible twisting, while reducing resistance. The SWING advantage offers some flexibility, but does not penalize control in the top end. Careful panel layout, precise load management and staggered stitching continue to ensure exceptional profile control across the entire wind range. The use of HITEX on the inflatable structure, as well as NANO and HT80 on the canopy offer great resistance to elongation and therefore greater durability and performance. These materials are also perfectly distributed to account for the different tensions, high pressures and weight distribution in each specific area in order to make the SWING an amazing wing for surfing and downwind. 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. The SWING is equipped with the new interchangeable handle system: soft, hybrid or even rigid, the choice is yours. The wings come with pre-installed soft handles, but it is now possible for riders to customize the handles to their preferences.
