Wing F-One STRIKE V4

Wing F-One STRIKE V4

A masterpiece of aerodynamism…

The Wing  STRIKE V4 is F-One Freestyle / Speed Wing.

It has been refined to guarantee new sensations, and unforgettable, high-performance sessions.

F-One STRIKE V4 is much more than a new wing model,  it’s the perfect blend of performance, lightweight feel and smooth traction.

The Strike V4 main Characteristics are:

Unprecedented speed and power delivery.

Excellent pop, hangtime, and upwind performances.

Interchangeable handle system that allow you to choose Soft, Hybrid or Hard Handles.

Very intuitive pumping allowing easy planing starts

Built with HITEX and TECHNOFORCE materials for increased durability.

Total control of the profile and deformations to guarantee comfort in the entire wind range

Thanks to its stiffness, accelerations, and massive pop and hangtime, the F-One STRIKE V4 will have you hooked on high speeds and freestyle control.

F-One new STRIKE V4 Wing  features a superintuitive pumping matched with a certain flexibility that makes it easy to start planing without having to expend a lot of energy.

The wing responds to pumping with immediate power allowing to start wingfoiling very fast.

The wing’s balance and aerodynamics ensure exceptional and superior performance, while at the same time maintaining control and precision.

This new version of the Strike offers an unrivalled smoothness of traction that makes it possible to ride effortlessly.

You will have the sensation as if using a smaller, very light wing.

For those who love speed, the wing provides a “Going Forward” feeling, thanks to an impressive forward traction.

This will deliver fantastic horizontal acceleration.

The STRIKE’s control throughout all the wind range is impressive, allowing you to easily handle gusts.

In the low end, you won’t feel air holes or heading winds, maintaining a constant glide with exceptional upwind abilities.

For your rotations, the wing turns very easily on its own, allowing you to land your usual tricks and also try out new ones.

The Strike V4 benefits from the extensive F-One Sail Engineering work

This includes our new designs and the most modern technologies and materials.

Design:

For this new version, the design of the STRIKE has been entirely revised.

The central strut of the wing is now completely straight.

This allows to better control its deformation and possible twisting, while at the same reducing drag.

In the end, the infill is a bit lower and deforms less, and we’ve extended it almost all the way to the back of the wing.

Innovative Load Diffuser is reduced for weight gain, especially during freefly.

F-One also added dihedral angle to improve stability and keep the wingtips out of the water whether your pumping or riding.

The new leading and trailing edge tensions mixed with a refined radial cut, will help to keep the profile smooth and stable improving incredible performance and control.

The accurate panel layout, precise load management and staggered seams continue to bring exceptional control of the profile, especially in the high end.

Materials:

The use of HITEX on the inflatable structure and TECHNOFORCE™/D2 on the canopy offer great resistance to elongation allowing greater durability and performances.

The materials are perfectly distributed considering the different tensions, high pressures, and weight distribution in each specific area of the wing.

Small radial cuts are implemented on the wingtips and on the back of the strut to spread tensions.

Aligning the fibre exactly along the load paths means that stretch can be controlled to a never-before-seen level on a wing.

The Load Diffuser made of overlapping panels of hard Mylar and Dacron further helps maintaining the profile sleek and efficient.

This will lead to the ultimate stability, performances, and longevity in wingfoiling.

The wing feels stiff enough for any rider to perform and stay in control,

At the same time it’s very progressive, offering a gentle and swiftforward traction.

Handles:

The ORIGIN comes with our new interchangeable handle system where you can choose between soft, hybrid or fully rigid handles.

Wings come with soft handles pre-installed, but it is now possible for wingfoilers to customize handles to their preferences.

Thanks to this Sail Engineering and design work, the new STRIKE is an ideal compromise of performance, control, and smoothness.
