F-One Trax HRD Carbon 2024
IN A NUTSHELL...
The F-ONE TRAX is a timeless favorite within our lineup, renowned as one of the most sought-after Twin-Tip boards available. This versatile board stands out for its exceptional attributes in speed, comfort, and gliding performance. When equipped with its carbon construction and exclusive HRD rail technology, the TRAX HRD CARBON delivers an immediate sense of control at high speeds and elevated performance levels.
Design details
The distinctive Helical Rail Design (HRD) is a key contributor to the outstanding performance of this board. It employs a unique 3D shaping process for the board's rails, featuring three distinct sections running along its length. In the middle, the rail is slim to enhance grip and upwind capability. Underfoot, it takes on an inverted, surfboard-like curve, ensuring smooth tracking through choppy waters and enhancing carving ability. As the rail extends towards the tips, it thins out again, providing exceptional grip and bite for impressive pop.
On the water, this board immediately delivers a sense of speed and high performance. The HRD rail design eliminates spray and offers remarkable comfort, regardless of water conditions.
The TRAX HRD CARBON benefits from a biaxial carbon full layer, reducing the board's weight while increasing its strength, stiffness, and flex response. Its lightweight nature enhances responsiveness, making it a true joy when airborne.
The board's flex has been finely tuned using carbon fiber properties to maximize water takeoff pop. The responsive tips assist when loading up the edge for takeoff, while landings are smoothed out by the wide outline and channeled base, ensuring continuous control.
The concave step design on the bottom, incorporating a classic single concave with a full-length channel, provides a locked-in yet smooth ride. It allows for instantaneous planing with strong upwind potential.
Combining edge control, early planing, upwind capability, and chop-friendly handling, the TRAX CARBON is an excellent choice for riders of all levels, from beginners to experts, and everyone in between. Its stiff ride and explosive pop make it particularly well-suited for freestyle-oriented riders seeking bigger airs and longer sessions.
Whether you're navigating flat water or challenging chop, this precise board can handle it all, offering a one-of-a-kind ride with abundant performance and 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 sizes come equipped with four UNIBOX 50mm fins, known for their enhanced speed and improved glide due to their streamlined profile.
Tech specs
HELICAL RAIL DESIGN
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.
