2014 wave presentation

Page 1

2014


The Legend represents the ultimate level of refinement in a classic five-batten sideshore wave sail.

Its perfect balance and stability make the reactions to the gnarliest, gusty conditions feel smooth as butter. A more forward oriented draft position gives the Legend a neutral feel that transitions sleekly from driving hard bottom turns to gouging cutbacks. The Legend’s excellent control has you comfortably sailing the worlds windiest, overpowering locations just as you would be slicing up Hookipa. For 2014 we have continued to fine tune and perfect the designs size by size, ensuring optimum performance throughout the range. Construction refinements, including strategic trimming of patches, reduction of seams and increased use of our custom, light weight gradient X-ply has given the 2014 sails an even lighter, crisper feel. Added sleeve print graphics, together with new bright colour combos make the Legend a standout in both performance and appearance.

SIDE SHORE WAVE


The Mutant is our most progressive wave sail. It destroys convention, combining insane maneuverability and light handling with great power and wind range.

4-BATTENS ultra-low aspect ratio WAVE

The ultra-low aspect four-batten outline, together with our exclusive shaping techniques, gives the sail true ability to be used a size smaller and the balance to stay light and in control on the top end. On the wave, the performance of the Mutant is without equal, its ultra-light, playful feel brings the most critical sections and aerial maneuvers within reach. The ultra compact outlines reduced rotational inertia makes for instantaneous response whether on a wave or rotating through the air. After the incredible success of the Mutant, becoming our most popular wave sail model in its first season, we have continued to refine the designs for 2014 ensuring that each size has optimum balance and tension for maximum wind range. Panel layout designs and construction details have been evolved to further reduce weight and provide a crisper and lighter feel. In keeping with our theme of performance without compromise, the Mutant incorporates only the finest materials including extensive use of ultra-light and strong Technora™ scrim laminate in the upper sail body, high quality and durable x-ply laminates in the lower body and leech and an oversize optical X-ply window.


The GhostXT is an ultimate five batten sideshore wave sail meets the ultimate, high tech materials. After five seasons of using ultralight and strong Technora™ scrim laminate in our Ghost-XT, it has thoroughly proven its performance and durability. Never ones to settle, we have continued to find ways to further reduce the weight of the ridiculously light weight Ghost XT for 2014. Increased use of Technora™, combined with a new window X-ply material make the Ghost disappear in your hands like never before. With shaping based on Legend development, but adapted to the most high tech, light weight materials, the Ghost-XT aims to lift the performance level up another notch. Compared to traditional materials, the Ghost-XT feels significantly lighter and also a little quieter and softer. You truly forget about the sail as you surf the wave. The Ghost-XT’s combination of power, stability, control and ultra-light weight make it a versatile wave performer for those who appreciate the best.

Technora light weight wave


The Global satisfies the thirst for power with a more pronounced profile depth and extra tension and stability as compared to our dedicated side-shore wave sails. Optimized for imperfect onshore conditions, the Global will power you out over sloppy whitewater and help you coast through gusty, holey winds. Want to catch waves in no wind on a 100L-plus wave board?... The Global range includes massively powerful 6.2 and 6.8 sizes. For 2014, the Global’s construction has been upgraded with increased use of lightweight Gradient X-ply, reduction in seams and trimmed patches for lighter weight and more responsive performance.

ON SHORE POWER WAVE


The LocoPro has undergone its greatest evolution in years, transforming to a four- batten structure in sizes from 4.0 to 5.6. Developed in close testing with feedback from Taty Frans, for 2014 we present the all new “Loco Pro” model. Having gained some shaping insight from the Mutant sail range, and applying that to a classic higher aspect ratio freestyle outline, the Loco is now optimized for new school freestyle maneuvers. The first thing that you will notice on the Loco Pro is the incredibly light and crisp feel that begs you to innovate and try new tricks. Instant power will accelerate and pop you from one maneuver to the next. The Loco pro owns a legacy of the design features that other freestyle sails imitate and has set the benchmark even higher for 2014.

FREESTYLE / BUMP’N’JUMP


The Switch is great as a fast bump and jump performer. Whether racing your buddies, hucking huge airs or practicing some mellow freestyle the Switch will suit you well. Excellent stability derived from a six batten layout, tube/rods and a soft, racy leech will make you happy blasting along with lots of power. For 2014 increased film use in the mid sail body, together with light weight gradient X-ply in the leech helps to reduce weight and give the sail a livelier feel.
