THE WIDE RIDE WITH REAL GLIDE
You will sense the trademark thin rails biting into the wave just like a smaller board and let you maneuver off the top and in bottom turns in ways not expected.The thin rails mean you need less e ort to turn on the rail, as there is less volume holding the board back from sinking into the turn.
SHORT NOSE OUTLINE
Prevents the nose from diving when getting into waves and paddling in choppy water.
In the center provides efficient glide and speed on flats.
Allows to have a wider stance for extra stability in chop.
Allows for tighter turning when standing back on the tail.
Improves stability when stepping on the board to turn. It also gives release out of turns.
Provides speed to catch the wave and then has sensitive rail-to-rail turning from the midpoint.
Makes it easier to carry speed and hold through maneuverers.
Are positioned closer to the rail for quicker response in turns. Minimal change yet a big improvement.
Thruster fin set up provides comfortable straight-line tracking on flat and gives drive and control in surf.
Pocket Rocket allows both thruster and quad set up. Quad fin set up uses 4 side fins and gives fast acceleration and instant down the line speed as it does not have a drag from the larger centre fin.
A self-ventilating air valve is available on the board. This valve is self-ventilating so, it should not be touched or removed – otherwise, you are at risk of damaging the valve system.

F-One Noosa Pro
$2,559.00$2,559.00 – $2,739.00
The NOOSA offers amazing longboard SUP performance in surf.
- Insane Speed and glide
- Improved take-offs
- Impressive maneuverability
Not only is this the original shape which inspired the first and early SUP boards, but it also offers some noticeable advantages.
Length offers both speed and glide especially when combined to a narrower width, and this greatly improves the take-off. The moderate beam also ensures the board is easy to set on the rail, providing a nice acceleration once on the wave.
The rocker of the board has received a lot of attention to make sure the board glides well using its bottom but also remains manoeuvrable when it’s being steered from the back when surfing.The NOOSA is particularly impressive in its manoeuvrability and ease of use when you consider its actual length.
The surprising aspect of this shape is that it will let you surf small waves thanks to its genuine speed, but also some larger ones since you can dig the rail and stay in complete control.
Take-off on larger waves is also made easier by its paddling speed. This board has a great gliding feel and will let you perform some nose tricks with its timeless longboard look.CONSTRUCTION
The PRO CARBON construction is built from layers of glass, bamboo and some bi-axial carbon fabrics. The bottom features an HD foam sandwich with glass layers and some bi-axial carbon fabrics. The brushed carbon finish ensures the weight remains minimal. This construction brings an impressive resistance combined with absolute light weight. These boards feature an amazing strength to weight ratio and remain amongst the highest performing and lightest boards on the market.
