Ideal for carving, the SK8 is a perfect wave oriented twin-tip.

Intended for powerful carves, the SK8 is most comfortable in choppy waters and in strong winds. Modified with a sharper outline - the board gives a more reactive feel allowing for faster carve transitions between the waves.

Direct Drive Technology provides active flex that works with the rider to give a dynamic ride capable of respond accordingly to different riding conditions.

A high performance kiteboard for choppy conditions and wave riding, this board will be perfect as a single quiver board offering well balanced performance in all wave conditions for any intermediate or advanced rider.

Who is the board designed for:
If you are after a kiteboard that can do it all in the waves and at the same time - with the allround / high performance you need in waves and high wind conditions - this board will be able to handle whatever you throw at it!

F-One SK8 Kiteboard - Length / Width:

F-One SK8 132 x 38cm

Features / Technology:

Simple Concave:
Glide, comfort and carving are major aspects of your boards handling. The edge to edge single concave improves all 3 points. To glide and accelerate you use the centre part of your board where our new concave is 4mm deep.

This effectively flattens the rocker of the center line for more efficiency. And when carving or on edge the concave increases the bite of the rails for more effective edging. You also gain in comfort with the concave cushioning any rough water to give a smoother feeling under your feet.

Direct Drive:
Direct Drive refers to a board with minimum thickness, with 100% wood core and 100% fiberglass envelop. These elements are interrelated and create a coherent set answering the requirement of a high performances kiteboard.

With the Direct Drive F-One can obtain a very precise board, quick and active as it is able to erase the chops absorbs the energy and able to restitute all that in the best of timing. The feeling of riding in direct contact with the water is even greater, and the manufacturing quality is optimal.

100% Wood Core:
The core is the soul of the board; it is the key to the DIRECT DRIVE technology. Impossible to manufacture boards this thin 11mm in the center and only 3mm at the tips, without the help of wood core.

The flex, the dynamic response and the chocks and vibrations absorption provided by the wood core are unique and unequalled.

Dynamic Flex:
The board works for you and with you. You don't suffer from the uneven surface of the water. The results: less effort on your legs, better aim control and better sensations.

ABS Inverted Rail:
The most outstanding improvement in the DIRECT DRIVE technology; is the flex. The board is no longer passive. It works for you and with you.

You no longer suffer from the uneven surface of the water. The results: less effort on your legs, better aim control and better sensations.
