How to choose your F-ONE wingfoil board

On a wingfoil board, volume is the number-one criterion: it determines how easily you stand up and how stable the start is.

What volume? (by level)

• Beginner: your weight (kg) + 30 to 40 L. E.g. 80 kg → 110–120 L. You start floating, seated or kneeling.
• Intermediate: weight + 10 to 20 L.
• Advanced / competitor: weight ± 0 or below (sinker boards, water start).

The F-ONE range

• ROCKET WING: the versatile one — wide volume choice, ideal to learn and progress.
• ROCKET WING-S: more compact and performance-oriented, short outline for experienced riders.
• ROCKET ASC: geared towards performance and glide.
• Carbon versions: high-end, light and reactive.

Width, outline & construction

A wide board is more stable at the start; a narrow, short board is more agile in flight. For construction, carbon makes it lighter and livelier (better pumping); bamboo/PVC builds offer great value and toughness to start.
