INTERCHANGEABLE HANDLES
In 2024, all our wings are fitted with our new interchangeable handle system. Whether you’re looking for a light and comfortable setup with soft handles, a more direct and aggressive ride with hard handles or something in between with our innovative hybrid handles, we’ve got you covered.
Wings come with soft handles pre-installed, but swapping a handle set between wings is quick and easy thanks to our screwless setup. Soft handles: A classic on our wings, our grippy, ergonomic and super comfortable handles allow for some flexibility so your wrist is always in line with your arm. Attached to the wing’s webbing by a Velcro system, these handles benefit from a light yet firm construction that doesn’t include any hard parts.
Hybrid handles: An F-ONE innovation, these are soft handles that are connected to the wing’s webbing by a hard base. It will lead to a more direct feel in your hands for more performance and control, while still fully benefiting from the comfort and grip of the soft handles.
Hard handles: Offering more efficient pumping and a more direct feedback, these hard handles are ideal for riders seeking control and precision.
Boom: For those who need maximal freedom, the boom lets you position your hands completely freely. It’s the perfect option for freestyle.
TECH SPECS
Drawing inspiration from the STRIKE and SWING models, the ORIGIN has been specifically tailored to maximize lightness and comfort. The introduction of staggered seams ensures the fabric and its seams synergize more effectively, maintaining a smooth and efficient wing profile while minimizing shape distortion under stress. This meticulous control over the wing's profile ensures unmatched stability and comfort throughout the ride.
To evenly distribute tension, small radial incisions are made on the wingtips and the rear of the strut. Precise alignment of fibers along the load paths significantly enhances the ability to control stretching, achieving unparalleled control in a wing. Our advanced Load Diffuser, positioned at the strut's rear and consisting of layered Mylar and Dacron panels, plays a critical role in preserving a streamlined and efficient profile, which translates to superior stability, performance, and durability.
The strut and the leading edge's two central segments on either side are constructed from HITEX 158g, a high tenacity polyester known for its exceptional resistance to stretching, thus ensuring enhanced durability and performance. The rest of the leading edge utilizes Dacron 150g to ensure the wing remains lightweight and comfortable. The ORIGIN's canopy features TECHNOFORCE™/D2 fabric weighing 52g, with a heavier 66g variant used on the trailing edge, mirroring the STRIKE's material strategy. This careful material distribution accounts for the varying tensions, pressures, and weight distribution across different areas. Similar to the latest versions of our wings, the ORIGIN's central strut is designed to be completely straight, enhancing our control over its deformation and potential twisting and effectively reducing drag. Consequently, the infill is somewhat lowered and exhibits less deformation, extending nearly to the wing's rear.
