Our team of specialists has been working since 2014 on the development of ProFOIL.F1 and its evolution.
We put all the expertise, the technicality and the SELECT experience to serving an objective: to create a highperformance windfoil, easy and self-stabilizing, able to fly in an ultra light wind.

Experience & state-of-the-art technology

Constantly improving the level of performance and sailing comfort, our products are subject to constant optimization.

For some years now, we have integrated a large team of specialists in the development of our foils.

The research and development team is made up of some very qualified and highly experienced enthusiasts in the fields of fluid mechanics and technical engineering.
Technological evolution, recent developments and permanent feedback from our testers allow us to improve our products constantly.

The ProFOIL.F1 SELECT, is the modern version of the windfoil.

To achieve this, we have developed the construction of all the components of a foil designed for windsurfing.
The construction of a windfoil is extremely complex and high-tech. Because of the considerable forces at work, all components require perfect development, production and skill.

The ProFOIL.F1 is a concentrate of our expertise in hydrodynamics and the use of composite materials. It has been developed and manufactured as a real piece of aeronautics. Designed with rigour and without any concession from the quality that has made the reputation of SELECT / SM COMPOSITE.

Maximum performances for light wind

A locked mast / fuselage assembly :
The mast and the fuselage are the structure of the foil. The quality of these two parts is of paramount importance for obtaining the best performance of the front wing and the stabilizer. The composite structure must be as elaborate as possible to hold the twisting and bending. This is the essential condition to gain stability, which will determine control and performance.

Low drag :
The minimal drag of the ProFOIL.F1 is the component for which nothing is left to chance. The choice of the mast profile, the shape of the fuselage and especially the recess of the wings and stabilizers are without equivalent compared with other foils on the market.

Perfect surfaces :
The preparation of the surfaces is the condition of the performance of all wings, mast and fuselage. All composite pieces are sanded in five steps to achieve the best factor of water on water gliding. Our parts are bare, without primer, without paint or varnish which impose an unnecessary load and often conceal faults.

Length : 90cm

The ProFOIL.F1 mast / fuselage assembly can be dismantled.
The mast has a tapered flange which gives 20 mm more (back and front) than the maximum width of the mast.
The form of this base added to the high modulus carbon reinforcements enables you to obtain the best holding when twisting.

• Technology : full carbon single piece. Made in metal moulds.
The ProFOIL.F1 mast is a single piece full carbon structure: consisting of fibre UD high modulus 390 GPA HM and carbon biaxial 430 GPA HM. (NB: The sandwich does not have its place on a mast of 90cm > the risks of delamination are too great).

• Finishing : sanding / Grain 1200 > optimization of the water on water gliding.
• FixatioN : fixing to the fuselage: screws and stainless steel plugs / safety restraint.

Technological evolution, recent developments and feedback from our testers have
resulted in the completion of new Aero aluminium fuselages.

This ultra-rigid alloy specific to aeronautics makes it possible to maintain the twisting essential to the good performance of the wings whilst reducing production costs.

In the end, you get an equally powerful ProFOIL.F1 at a more attractive retail price.

Geometry

Its geometry is upgradable : it depends on both the mechanical forces and the hydrodynamic optimization.

  • The section is very square for limit twisting.

  • The finer rear part holds the foil in yaw for better balance.
