Ross Williams says: “The 2008 Poison keeps you ripping on any wave. It’s light and nimble enough for the smallest rider, yet it carries enough grunt for the bigger guys. Powerful and solid, the Poison always promises a killer ride.” Matt Pritchard comments: “The ’08 Poison is the best edition yet. Shaping revisions move the draft forward putting the power directly into your hands. Bottom turns and high wind blasting, the 08 Poison is agile, yet potent in the lineup.”

Matt Pritchard comments: “A new, high-cut foot gets you easily under the sail. Duck jibes or Cana Bravus, the new Echo is a real standout this year. A well-balanced luff curve and flat shape make for a very efficient rig that is super smooth in transitions. Soft and elastic the Echo is always a sick ride.”

Building on the success of winning Europeans and Worlds, the 008 Vapor emerges again as the sail to beat. Crafted by Dan Kaseler, the designer of the outright record holder, the 2008 Vapor is most technologically advanced windsurfing sail the planet.

A finely tuned new size flow has made the Vapor ideal for any board, rider, or race course. A new 6.7 m2 to fit an RDM 460 offers the best entry in that size to date. Dominate the Race scene the world over as you ride what very well could be the fastest sail ever designed. Just ask Dave White, who pushed the 007 sail to 46.2 knots, beating every other brand on the marketplace.

Advances in mast technology have redoubled quality as the Vapor features a fresh new luff curve to match Gaastra’s lightest fastest mast yet. Meticulously tuned camber pressures continue to make rotation a snap, while Gaastra’s wrinkle-free wingsock, presents a super clean leading edge. “With the Vapor, I have the tool to win. I believe that this year will be another success for anyone who chooses to take a Vapor onto the water. – Ross Williams “The Vapor is a well finished racing machine... With the 12m2, I feel invincible.” – Steve Allen

With the introduction of the totally revamped Matrix, Gaastra clearly defines the next age of windsurfing. The horizons of no-cam performance have been stretched to a new frontier. An updated skeleton shifts one batten from the foot area upward toward the mid leech. The resulting support overhead keeps the sail’s profiles locked and loaded, even in the heaviest gusts. If you rode the Matrix blindfolded, you’d swear the shape was held rock solid by a set of cambers. Tear into a jibe, and you’d know the cams were a figment of your imagination. Ride the future.

3 BATTENS size: 4.0/3.5
2 BATTENS size: 3.0
Designed with Resorts and School oriented performance in mind with the aim of creating positive windsurfing experiences. The Freetime delivers stable and forgiving performance through intelligent rigging components, precise balance and controlling the initial pull of the sail.
1 BATTENS size: 2.5/2.0/1.5 Reduced luff lengths and a light mast make the Freetime feel much lighter than the typical “school” rig. The top batten offers added stability and range through leech twist in the head and the center of effort is focused around the sailor’s hands for perfect balance.
4 BATTENS size: 6.0/5.5/5.0/4.5)
Available in Dacron and X-Ply construction, the Freetime will get more windsurfers on the water and drive more stoke for the sport.
