Description

Get in your flow, feel every turn and be ready to shred like never before with the F-One SK8. Designed for surfing, this foil doesn’t just turn. It carves. Bringing control, manoeuverability and pure glide, the SK8 lets you draw dreamy lines and takes your surf to the next level.

Its overall shape provides a fine balance between glide and manoeuverability, which allows the user to tear a wave apart and then pump back to the peak effortlessly.

Manoeuverability is nothing without power, speed and control. Lay into turns with ease and speed, push through the carve and see how the SK8 holds a steady line and delivers even more speed.

With specific wingtips design, the SK8 is able to hit white water without too many turbulences, allowing surf-style turns and breaching pretty much any part of the foil.

Take the SK8 for a wing ride, and you’ll feel a fast, easy-to-go-upwind foil that you can surf all the way from the offshore swell until the impact zone.

Built using the Monobloc structure with pre-preg carbon, the foils are both very light and strong. This setup brings improved load transmission and better stiffness throughout the different parts for maximum control. The High Modulus Carbon fibre layup leads to even more rigidity and dependability that will propel you to incredible performances in each session. The TITAN connection allows to plug in either an aluminium or carbon mast.

Technology
HM:

The High Modulus Carbon fibre layup is 1.5x stiffer than the regular carbon fibre used in other constructions. The percentage of high modulus fibre has been carefully adjusted to obtain the best stiffness in both bending and torsion while keeping enough comfort for any kind of practice.

Monobloc Front Wing:

Having a stiff and solid assembly between all the parts of the foil is key to making it perform at its best as well as easy to handle.

The connection of the front wing with the fuselage is highly stressed and loaded, so it is one of the critical areas of the assembly in terms of structures.

The Monobloc front wings are molded together with the fuselage in one shot, thereby removing the connection and the chances for unwanted and parasitic movements.

The structural fibres of the fuselage are spread into the wing to achieve the smoothest and lightest connection.

It is also incredibly stiff and provides absolute control at all times, with the foil responding perfectly to all of the riders’ input.

When the overall dimensions are too large for convenient transportation, a connection is set into the fuselage, behind the mast where the loads are smaller.

Pre-Preg Technology:

Pre-preg makes the foils stiffer and stronger. With pre-preg fabrics, the carbon fibre is directly impregnated with epoxy resin by its manufacturer. This guarantees a perfect ratio between epoxy and carbon and represents the highest quality process. It is then cured at high temperature, bringing strength and durability.

Titan Connection:

The Titan connection enables a very stiff and direct connection between two parts, locking efficiently any movement in all directions.

Its format is compact which is hydrodynamically efficient and very easy to use, assemble and disassemble.
