Greetings, everyone!
Charles here from Liquid Blue Cabarete, and I'm back with an on the water review sharing my opinion on both the Strike V4 and Swing V4 by F-ONE in real time.
Note: We released individual first impression on-land reviews of each wing - for those curious of which wing is right for you those videos are a bit more in-depth though this video also gives you an idea about each wing. You can't really go wrong either one you select!
Both the Strike V4 and Swing V4 out of all the previous releases are the most interesting not only because all the tweaks they have made throughout the years though the new handle system being implemented. All these features combined is undeniably keeping the F-ONE wing line up as one of the best wings out there and with good reason. The built quality is solid and this years updates justifies upgrading to the V4 and or future models after this.
To wrap it up, this wing is the performance everyone knows and loves with the option to customize it with the handle preference one wants. Whether you're a beginner, a weekend warrior, a high-performance wave shredder, or a freestyle wizard, whether you're a casual enthusiast or a pro on the tour, this wing will blow your socks off with its outstanding performance.
Summary To Picking:
Swing: Beginner/Intermediate/Wave Riding/Cruising
Strike: Intermediate/Advanced/Freestyle/Speed/Wave Riding

Strike has become my favorite though both work!
Thanks for the video. By the way: In light wind conditions (12/14 kts for example) wich one is easier to pump and start flying? Swing or Strike v4. ?? I am using a 5.5 strike v2, but the point is that i was told that the strike v3 needs more wind to get going than my v2 strike. So i was wondering if the same thing happens with the v4 strike or swing.
PD: you got brand new stock at your cabarete store or i must order in advance? Thanks
How is the low end of both wings? V3 Strikes were not great (or more technical to use) and V3 Swings were easier. Curious about V4s?
Tried the v4 4.5 in what I would say medium conditions 15-18 knots and you can see sometimes pumping. I need to test in 12-15 to see if I can get going on 4.5 with my set up. No real answer though generally I adjust wings to wind. 10-15 5m 15-20 4.5 and 20 solid + can go on 4.
I’m on Strike v2’s which still seem fine. Sounds like they have softened the v4’s to be more like the v2’s. And/or is the Origin more like a v2? Is it worth upgrading from v2’s? Thank you
Hey Rod, if your wing still has some life in it and can hold out another year till the V5… then go for it! I personally find big difference from v2 to v3… and now v3 to v4 just an even more refined shape and great overall performance. Soon new handle options come out. That will be the icing to this v4 for people who wanted other set ups like hard handles, softer handles, boom or regular ones.
Hi,which googles are you using?
Amphibian Spex Goggles though hard to come across now a days due to company discontinuing :/.... We have some still on island in the Dominican Republic as we bought 100s before closing though now down to few pairs... If you need/want a pair because you can't find let me know and we can see to help get you a pair up to where you are.
Will you throw the origin into perspective?
Nope! We did not receive any and in our shop/school will only focus on Swing/Strike for both resale, lessons and rentals as well personal use!
@@lbcabarete pity coz that seems to be a v good choice....
@@dferrerllmight test out one day though you can only ride one wing at a time on the water! Strike and Swing are top models with Origin being more user friendly based for pure teaching not all around.
@@charlesosterlund7303 I wa told the Origin will be more like the good old Swing V2 or v1 but improved in particular the materials. And lighter than the Strike and swing v4...
interesting! I enjoy the V3 and now the V4! Not planning to go back to v1+ or v2+. Never felt weight as an issue (lighter than most wings I have ever tried).
