F One Kites Kiteboarding Equipment
F One Kites Kiteboarding equipment is now an important part of TPK.
We are very proud to become the official international dealers of the top quality kite equipment on the market F-One..
F-One was founded by Raphael Salles at 1996 (ex pro windsurfer).
I had the honor to meet Raphael at Lacanau beach (France) at 2001. During these days I was still focused on windsurfing, sleeping in my Van with all my boards & sails and looked for the best waves in France & Europe.
A good friend of mine, the boss of "Neway" (a big water sport shop in France) organized the first kite event in France.
The event took place at Lacanau Lac. City, a very popular pro surfer's competitions spot.
During this event I made my first contact with the kitesurfing sport, which was very new for everyone those days.... Even Julien Sudrat was windsurfing, not for a long time after he realized the potential of this sport and we knows he became World Champion the year after.
Raphael also took part of the event and impressed everyone with his first twin tip and power kites. |
