AWSI 2025 was an amazing week up in Hood River for F-One & Manera! We spent time with our dealers, sharing the full collection and giving a first look at what’s coming next. The wind delivered every day, making it the perfect setting to get gear on the water, while the R&D leadership from France helped walk through the design details and innovations across the range.
“This year’s AWSI was a great success for F-One & Manera, we were busy non stop with our dealers, showing first hand the whole collection, and also what’s to come. The weather was on our side, with wind everyday. We were lucky to have the support of the R&D team leadership from France, who explained the in and out of all the products on the floor. Highlight of the show was the Frigate and the Plume. A new 5.5 size was on the water non stop, everybody loved it. A 1.9m Frigate will also be added soon. The Plume too and Raphael Salles spent quality time detailing the design, when to use it, for how, and its place in the current range. Also the new Bandit Brainchild for 2026, new Trigger Tec, new Spark (all new big air TT) and the ATOM bar were part of the slew of new releases for the fall.”
