Description
Presentation of the F-One Phantom FCT front-wings: 1280 cm², 1480 cm², 1680 cm²
Connecting waves while wing foiling, surfing or even downwinding is easy and fun with the PHANTOM FCT foil. Carving is also part of its DNA, as connecting waves isn’t much fun if you can’t turn properly. By working on the lift distribution, arch shape, and other details, we reached a performing foil that can carve smooth curves on the waves and swells.
- The PHANTOM FCT 1280 is incredibly efficient in waves greater than 1m. It provides a versatile program like the 1480, but with a bit more power. It carves better, goes faster, and can be used in more powerful waves. It is also suitable for lighter riders (< 70 kg).
- The PHANTOM FCT 1480 combines efficiency and accessibility. Its lift allows you to glide endlessly while having fun thanks to its incredible maneuverability and stability. It is an ultra-versatile foil that will allow you to surf in waves < 1m50, venture downwind, wing foil, or even try dockstarts or wakefoil… It does everything well, even in weak conditions.
- The PHANTOM FCT 1680 is our newest size, ideal for low-wind conditions or riders of large stature. This front wing is large and stable yet remains highly maneuverable and will bring extra power and performance in light wind.
The PHANTOM FCT foils are more precisely built with the Foil Compression Technology, a F-ONE innovation that offers impressive mechanical properties. The fuselage can be directly 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 PHANTOM FCT wings are recommended with the R275 SURF stab made with RTM technology. Progressive and versatile, this stab will bring stability, control, and confidence to your ride.

Technology
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, it is one of the critical area 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 most natural, sound and light connection. It is also incredibly stiff and provide 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. |
|
Pre-preg 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. The material is stored in cooled rooms and catalyzes at 120° C in a mold. | The Pre-preg fibers must travel in refrigerated trucks and be stored frozen. The refined ratio between carbon fiber and epoxy resin provides 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 friendly and very easy to use, assemble and disassemble. | |
Stab C275 Surf The C275 SURF stab is specifically designed for carving and pumping. Its flatter arch shape delivers high efficiency while pumping in order to connect more waves. Its shape and smaller area ensure sharp turns and more speed with a very loose feeling, closer to that of a shortboard. It is a high-performance stab that suits the Phantom range. * Efficient pumping * Sharp turns * Loose-feeling | Built in Pre-Preg Carbon and designed to be securely mounted on F-ONE fuselages, its profile and angle of incidence were tuned to achieve a very intuitive balance. | |
Alu masts 45 > 95 cm The F-ONE aluminium mast can be used for all disciplines, kite, surf, sup and windsurf. The profile is extruded with precision from 6063 aluminium block. Sizes recommended: * 45 > 95 KITEFOIL * 55 > 75 SURF / SUP FOIL * 65 > 75 WING FOIL * 75 > 85 WIND FOIL | The shape of its section benefits from our years of experience in kitefoiling to provide the best gliding feel while keeping the strength up and the weight down. It comes with two stainless steel helicoil inserts at the bottom and at the top to fasten the connecting parts and is therefore fully modular. The aluminium mast can be used on every foil of the range and it is very easy to jump from one length to another (45 / 55 / 65 / 75 / 85 / 95 cm). A number of parts are available for board connection (Plate, KF, Deep KF, Tuttle). |

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. | |
Titan Mast Foot The TITAN mast foot is the connecting part that makes the F-ONE aluminium masts compatible with all TITAN fuselages and wings. | It is made of 6061 aluminium, CNC machined with high precision and fully anodized. To install the TITAN mast foot, it should be inserted into the bottom end of the aluminium mast and fastened with two M6x25mm tapered head screws. |
