Description
Presentation of the F-One Gravity Carbon & FCT front-wings:
1800 cm², 2200 cm²
A GRAVITY foil is intuitive. It generates lift at low —and even very low— speed but does it smoothly so you can easily keep your balance.
F-One Gravity FCT
The span is generous, making it a very reliable and intuitive foil. It also allows you to control low speeds and is overall extremely stable. The refined shape details such as the arch curvature, the profile and the wing tips insure it remains highly maneuverable.
The range includes two sizes: 1800 and 2200 cm². Foils with such areas support an early take-off and more lift and stability. However, we still made sure they also come with enough aspect ratio to maintain a decent speed range and to avoid unnecessary drag.
This GRAVITY FCT range is a fantastic option for anybody looking to discover foiling and wanting to consistently progress. Its durable and sturdy materials can withstand the typical mistakes of the early learning stages, and this foil is overall extremely forgiving.
The GRAVITY FCT line is more precisely built with the Foil Compression Technology, a F-ONE innovation that offers impressive mechanical properties. The fuselage can be connected to the standard F-ONE aluminum mast of the desired length. The setup and disassembly are also extremely easy, and the whole is very travel friendly. All in all, this technology provides one of the most accessible and scalable foil setups whilst keeping the DNA of its carbon counterpart.
The GRAVITY FCT is recommended with the IC6 300 stab. This stabilizer offers easy take-off and good directional stability for a secure feel which is perfect when riding. Built using the IC6 technology, it is both strong and durable.
F-One Gravity Carbon
A GRAVITY foil is intuitive. It generates lift at low —and even very low— speed but does it smoothly so you can easily keep your balance. These front wings are designed to be easy to roll and turn and are highly maneuverable.
The GRAVITY CARBON is a great beginner foil, but also simultaneously terrific for heavier or more experienced riders looking to get out in light or unstable conditions.
The range now includes two sizes: 1800 and 2200 cm². Foils with such areas support an early take-off and more lift and stability. However, we still made sure they also come with enough aspect ratio to maintain a decent speed range and to avoid unnecessary drag. Their massive span allows you to control low speeds, and these foils also turn and carve well.
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 TITAN connection allows to plug in either an aluminum or carbon mast, and the fuselage is split in two to facilitate transport.
Both GRAVITY CARBON are recommended with the C275 SURF stab. Progressive and versatile, this stab will bring stability, control, and confidence to your ride.

| FOIL COMPRESSION TECHNOLOGY F-ONE FCT front wings are built in fiberglass around a high-density foam core. The wing is covered by thin and strong shield skin. This technology offers one of the most accessible foil setups on the market. |  | F-ONE FCT front wings are built in fiberglass around a high-density foam core.

| FUSION LINK The Fusion Link enables the perfect connection between the fuselage and the front wing using a large solid plate at the front of the fuselage. |  | |
| ALUMINIUM 6063 & 6061 This aluminum alloy boasts some very good mechanical properties and can be processed in many ways while also offering a natural resistance to corrosion. |  | Produced from an extrusion process, our aluminum profiles make the most of this homogeneous material to provide perfect stiffness both in torsion and bending. All areas in contact with other metals or carbon parts are duly isolated against galvanic reactions. |
| Gravity CARBON | ||
| PRE PREG TECHNOLOGY Pre-preg makes the foils stiffer and stronger. With pre-preg fabrics, the carbon fiber 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. |  | Quality control is much better and so is the working environment for the people building our foils. Pre-preg fabrics offer the lightest weight with the best mechanical properties of carbon fiber. |
| 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. |
| MONOBLOC STRUCTURE 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 wings are molded together with the fuselage in one shot, thereby removing the connection and the chances for unwanted and parasitic movements. |  | The structural fibers 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. |
| Carbon masts 75 > 105 cm A true masterpiece of composite craftmanship and design, the F-ONE Carbon Mast was designed to transform your foiling experience by a significant improvement of the glide and a dramatic weight reduction matched with impressive rigidity. Chord: 12mm Profil Thickness: 1.45 cm Sizes recommended: * 75 > 105 KITE FOIL * 75 SURF / SUP FOIL / WING FOIL |  | Available in 75 cm, 85 cm and 105 cm, the F-ONE Carbon Mast is ready for all disciplines: surf, wing, kite, SUP. It features a 4-bolt plate at the top (hole spacing: 160×90mm) and an integrated Titan mast foot at the bottom. It can be connected to virtually all boards on the market featuring the twin track system and can receive all the wings and fuselage that feature the TITAN connection slot. |
