Unique shaping of the clew gives the rider a shorter “working” boom length effectively reducing swing weight. A shorter boom improves the draft stability by limiting the movement in the clew of the sail, gives the rider greater control over the increased surface area in the bottom of the sail, and prevents the boom end from hitting the water when raked back.
 

The Compact Boom Length outline has allowed us to remove surface area from the head of the sail and transfer it down towards the rider. This places a higher percentage of the sail’s surface area in direct connection with the boom, therefore ensuring easy control and powerful acceleration when the sail is throttled.
 

An integrated luff pocket window provides improved visibility through the lower section of the sail. Produced in spectra reinforced X-Ply for durability.
 

Allows more rake in the sail without hitting the foot of the sail in water. Allows the rider to glide through the lulls more effectively.
