Thanks for your Video and for sharing your thoughts about the new Strike V4. Since the Strike V1 and V2 both have been very light, powerfull and playfull I would really love to see that F-One came back to this with the V4. The V3 to me was a completly different Wing which was way more performance orientated but lost the easy of use and playfullness of the previous versions. Would you hands down say that the lowend and playfullness went back toto how they've been with the V1 and V2 ?
Hi Saltwateradventure, I haven't tested the V1, V2 or V3 so I can't compare, but I really liked the V4 proto as it was so light, playful and fast. The low-end power was amazing. We tested it in minimal conditions and it was able to get us onto the foil in the lightest of breezes even though it looked smaller than it's quoted size. For me personally it's also great to see F-one has build in the option to choose between soft/hard-handles or boom. See you on the water!!
Hi Northyvids, you're welcome. Compared to the Ozone flux 5.6 the Strike V4 5.0 was more slippery, faster, more free and more playful. The review of the Ozone will follow later on the channel. See you on the water!
Hi Kit3cut, Low-end was surprisingly good! The wing felt and looked very small, but still both Olivier with his 100kg(!) and I were able to get going in minimal conditions. Once you start pumping the wing the pressure and speed start building pretty quickly. Unfortunately I can't compare it to the 2023 V3 version as I haven't used that one. See you on the water!
Hi Jos, It is to compensate for the speed of the F-one Strike. 😄 No, without joking, it probably has to do with the switch to the English language last year and I will pay more attention to my rate of speech. Thanks for the feedback!
Yeah baby!
Hi Wiepke,
ik ben best benieuwd naar de final version van de Strike V4 MET boom!
Hele interessante wing lijkt het te gaan worden.
Tot op het water!!

Thanks for the review. How does it compare directly with the Flux that seems to already be one of the best wings out there?

@@Windsurfcoach Thanks!
Wie gut ist denn das Lowend bzw. die Power beim anpumpen im Vergleich zum Unit 23/24? Grüße in die Niederlande

Why … do… you … speak….so… slow.

You can do it.
