How do owners feel about the F-One Crossover board? I've winged on just my -25L sinker prone board for over a year (since selling previous quiver) and have a few sessions I've struggled either light wind or slogging home. I don't like ML in general but this one in the 65 to 75L range isn't too long and is still narrow. Lots seem to come on the market used/nearly new. Are they any good.

Not sure about the Crossover because I haven't ridden it but if you have a smaller board already for higher winds I would get the Midlength instead for lighter days? Much more efficient than the Crossover I think. I am 80 kg and on the 95 L Midlength and it is an amazing board. So fast/efficient and yet still so stable. Volume distribution is on point - you can really push the nose down hard and it won't sink, just shoot forward, so it's really efficient at taking off and just overall very well balanced. Once flying it doesn't feel too big either. F-One did a great job I think.

I rode the 83L (5'6) crossover for my 95-100kgs a few days on holiday and it was magnificent. My regular board is a 75L rocketWing V2 (5'4) which also does well, but the crossover is in another realm in terms of efficiency. I think the 83 would be the perfect size for me as a one quiver board, but 74 would probably also work as that is what I'm using my trusty RW for right now aswell. Anyway, the 83 feels both easier to get going and smaller in the air than my 75 RW.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback.

My son and I have these boards, and posted our first impressions on youtube (""). My son (80kgs) kept the 74l as his LW board and absolutely loves it. (enable captions for english)

I am 85kgs and much older ;-) using midlength 105l for LW. Eventually settled on the 83l as my smaller board. I must say it is rather technical board - has very little volume at the nose and pearls really easy. When it is 13knts and up I handle the rocket wing 75l (which I still have) just as easy. However it is a very capable all-around board for 10-20 knts. Takes off really fast, and feels small while in the air. Seems very sturdy.
