THE RETURN OF A STYLE ICON
Action Shots & Rider Quotes - Jason Prior
The Combat has traditionally been the preferred sail of the most aggressive, hard-riding wavesailors, and the new Combat is no exception. Team Pryde’s new generation stars such as Robby Swift and Baptiste Gossein immediately made the Combat their sail of choice and veteran Maui riders Jason Prior and Josh Stone were also keen to welcome back the sail that helped define their early careers.

DESIGN OBJECTIVE
HOW WAS IT DONE?
• To produce one sail that fits in between the Search and Zone that can excel in all conditions: onshore, sideshore, it should do everything.
• Sail to be super strong in construction and have a level of durability that ensures a long lasting ride. For riders who want to ‘go big’ without worrying about their equipment.
• The Combat took its early form from the Zone, with less shaping than the Search and a moderate aspect ratio making it light and manoeuvrable in side shore conditions.
• However, the Combat has added head tension, which significantly enhances its onshore performance.
• For rock solid construction, the entire outer frame of the sail is produced from a solid, low stretch, Kevlar reinforced X-Ply. Inside the frame, the main window of the sail has been constructed out of super strong, rip resistant, Spectra reinforced X-Ply. The Combat includes no monofilm and is exclusively produced from X-Ply material.
DESIGN & SHAPING FEATURES 
•
 Moderate shaping for power and lightness.
• Moderate aspect ratio and low center of effort for high response and optimum control.
• Well-rotated body that flattens out and de-powers instantly.
• Increased head tension for enhanced onshore performance.
