A true classic in our range, the F-ONE TRAX is one of the most popular Twin-Tips on the market. It is a versatile board that excels in terms of speed, comfort, and glide. In its carbon version and with the exclusive HRD rail, the TRAX HRD CARBON offers an instant feeling of control at speed and performance.
The exclusive Helical Rail Design (HRD) plays a significant role in this board’s exceptional performances. It is a unique process that allows for the rails of the board to be shaped in 3D. There are three sections to the rail as it runs the length of the board. In the middle of the board, the rail is thin for grip and improved upwind ability. Under the feet, the rail is inverted and curved like a surfboard rail, allowing the board to smoothly track through chop and improving its carving ability. As the rail reaches the tips, it thins out again, bringing superior grip and bite to give excellent pop.
On the water, this board offers an instant feeling of speed and performance. The HRD rail eliminates spray and feels very comfortable regardless of the water conditions.
The TRAX HRD CARBON benefits from a biaxial carbon full layer which drops the weight of the board. It also gives it extra strength, a stiffer ride, and a more powerful flex response. Its lightness makes it very responsive and is an absolute dream once in the air.
The board’s flex has been tuned with the properties of carbon fiber to provide the best pop off the water, and the tips are exceedingly responsive, thus helping you when you load up the edge for take-off. When it comes to landings, the wide outline and channeled base combine to smooth things out and allow you to always retain control.
The concave step design on the bottom, an association of a classic single concave with a full-length channel, gives the board its locked-in yet smooth ride, and allows you to go planing in an instant with strong upwind potential.
Combining edge control, early planing, upwind ability and chop-friendly handling, the TRAX CARBON is an excellent choice for beginners, experts, and everyone in between. The stiff ride and explosive pop make this board well suited to the more freestyle-oriented riders looking for bigger airs and longer sessions.
From flat water to harsh chop, this precise board can handle it, and you’ll get a ride like no other with plenty of performance at your disposal and in full confidence.
The TRAX HRD CARBON is available in four sizes: 135×39 cm, 136×40.5 cm, 137×42 cm, and 140×45 cm. All come equipped with four UNIBOX 50mm fins, which offer better speed and improved glide thanks to their thinner profile.
A true revolution, the Helical Rail Design (HRD) is a tripartite rail which delivers insane precision, advanced directional stability, surreal grip, and ultimate comfort, all unknown yet in the world of twin tips.
The HRD Rail provides new performances and a true sensation of floating above the water. The 16mm thick rail also strongly increases the strength and stiffness of the structure and locks the twist of the board.
THIN RAIL
Towards the tip of the board, the rail returns to its original thin shape to ensure grip during take-off and pop.
16 MM THICK INVERTED RAIL
In the feet area, the rail profile is very thick and inverted which creates two supports zones that avoid the bouncing effect. It also generates an impressive vertical lift that offers early planing and sensational drive. Landing any jump or trick has never been so simple! Its sharpened top edge also reduces water spray towards the eyes and legs.
THIN & SHARP RAIL
On the central part, the rail is thin and sharp, allowing edging, jumping at any time, also delivering a huge grip and an outstanding pop.
CONCAVE STEP DESIGN
The combination of a bottom concave and a channel, which tightens the central part, allows to go planing in an instant with strong upwind potential.
The concave absorbs the chop and improves its grip on the water.
The channel enhances the flow of the water and relieves the pressure on the back foot, providing incomparable comfort.
WOOD CORE
The wood forms the heart of your board and gives it most of its mechanical properties: strength, flex, and resilience (ability to return to its original shape).
In optimizing the wood thickness distribution, we always seek the best compromise between strength, stiffness, and weight to ensure you get the best of your board and maximum comfort.
3D DECK STRUCTURE
Board flex is tuned through both materials and shape.
The shape of the deck is especially engineered to make the board ultra-responsive between your legs for maximum drive and precision with the flex increasing progressively towards the tips for maximum pop and comfort.
TIP RECESS
It reduces the core’s volume and weight, and adds extra flexibility towards the tip of the board.
Combined with the other deck features, this makes the board stiff in the middle sections but with a nice flex towards the tips, making the drive very precise with a smooth riding feeling and extra pop for the jumps.
UNIBOX FINS
The patented UNIBOX system and RESPONSE fins have a radical effect : the asymmetrical profile improves the general ride and early planing.
However, it is the flex of the RESPONSE fins that gives amazing rail-grip as well as pop and forgiveness on heavy freestyle landings.
