F-ONE Papenoo Surf SUP
SHAPE
With its short straight outline and its large tail, the PAPENOO accelerates quickly in the small to medium waves. It generates speed to pass the soft sections and then reengages to hit the shoulder of the wave as soon as it is redrawn.
The rocker line is tailored for this short shape which resulted in straighter lines to get the speed while manoeuvrability is provided by the reduced length.
The shape evolves in 2020 with the addition of a winger in the outline.
This keeps the rails of the board fairly parallel in the central part offering a better planning / lift ratio and a better directional stability whilst paddling.
The PAPENOO is extremely maneuverable thanks to its narrower rear which drags less water.
The new PAPENOO reacts super quickly, goes faster, the bottom turns are easier with a better projection up the wave and the top turns are also easier with a tail that reduces drag.
CONSTRUCTION
The BAMBOO DECK construction has been proven for many years of production and offers a weight to resistance ratio with great reliability. The deck features a layer of bamboo to provide a tough impact and crushing resistance while the many layers of reinforcement on the bottom ensures solid strength.

Our SUP boards benefit from the BAMBOO SANDWICH TECHNOLOGY construction. Every layer of bamboo is sandwiched between two layers of fiberglass or between a layer of carbon. This allows the sandwich technology to emphasize the characteristics of the bamboo. The final result is a light structure that is super strong and extremely reliable.
The top deck of the board is lined with a layer of bamboo.
For all surfers one of the inconveniences of a SUP is the large size of the rails, too big to dig into a turn. So, how do we make a sup with a thin rail without losing the volume of the board? The answer is the Beveled rail.
They are small flat lateral sections in V shapes, which allows us to reduce the thickness of the rail in certain sections (1). The other advantage is that they reduce the planing surface of the board (2) which therefore reduces drag. The combination of a thinner rail and slightly narrower width allows the board to get a better edge into the turns and a tighter arc.
