After years of intensive testing over reef and Mediterranean waves,
the 5’6” - 5' 8" - 5' 8" stood out as the ideal boards for strapped
wave riding.
Surprisingly easy, it naturally enters the curves and goes where you want: it can do it all, from tight turns to long curves.
Available
in 3 sizes to fit all styles and conditions, all in same 45 cm wide you
can choose the lengh you like for your favorite spot.
BAMBOO SANDWICH TECHNOLOGY
A
kite board sustains more constraints than a standard surf board. It
endures more pressure mainly in the upwind stage, in the chops and
during jumps.
A sandwich construction is required to have a product adapted to our sport.
Loyal
to wood, which is the core of our twin-tip boards, F.One chose bamboo
for their kiteboards. The result is a light structure, super strong
which absorbs the constraints.
The extremely dense cellular structure of the bamboo surpasses the one of the oak in stability and elasticity.
Bamboo
is superior to wood in terms of durability and rigidity. This mighty
grass is extremely solid due to high elasticity fibers lined up to the
cane on the outer layer of the peel.
In traction’s resistance, bamboo fibers match up the ones of trees and constructions steel.
The
use of bamboo is also environmentally responsible. It benefits from an
astonishing growth rate: the “giant bamboo” will grow 30 to 50cm per
day to reach 15 to 30meters.
Every year the “mother plant”
generates several shoots. In a full grown “forest” the shoots can
therefore be harvested after 5years without reducing the size of the
forest.
