WINDSURFING


WE ONLY PLAY TO WIN.

We all have individual ambitions — whether it’s planing for the first time, beating a friend to the buoy or winning a World Championship. Each of us defines our

Robby Swift

own goals and success but we are all connected by a unifying sense of victory.

At NeilPryde, our mission is to inspire you in your own personal achievement, and to provide you with the best equipment to attain it.

We understand winning in the water — combining cutting edge designs with high performance materials.

CORE:Series is the pinnacle of windsurf sail evolution. The best materials, latest designs and countless hours of R&D by the best riders in the world. No expense spared. Period.

We also understand the windsurfing market and want as many people as possible to have access to the results of our tireless tinkering and evolution.

This year we are introducing a new range of sails, the X:Series. Combining the entire heritage of NeilPryde R&D with industry standard construction techniques, we bring NeilPryde quality and design to an accessible level from Wave to Freeride and Free-Race. Take a look, and find your own win — whatever that may be.

Like Nothing Else.

X:SERIES

SAILS FOR EVERY CONDITION AND EVERYBODY

The all-new addition to our range is the X-Series. We are reinventing the range. More affordable because we listen to the market and to your needs. This sail range is made up of three models inspired by the entire heritage of NeilPryde R&D and built using classic industry-standard sail construction. They offer timeless performance and design while not breaking the bank.

Antoine Martin, Jules Denel & Leon Jamaer

Designed to fulfill the needs of all windsurfers, from early planing stages to blasting Freeride and advanced Wave sailors, this range brings the unique NeilPryde experience to a wider range of riders. The X-Series shape designs will remain unchanged for at least three years with only colorways evolving over time. Allowing the sails to retain their value for a long period.

Accessible to everybody because we only want you to hold the very best in your hands.

2019 SAIL TECHNOLOGY - CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY

ArmourWeb is constructed from full polyester lines at +/-40 degrees, creating an interlaced, woven web for high tear resistance. Available on X:Wave / X:Move / X:Ryde / Speedster / V8 / Dragonfly.

Powerfuse is a whole new way to reinforce and lighten the sail body by using an innovative material fusion method. Doing away with unnecessary patch reinforcements, seams and stitches, we created fully integrated, laminated panels of variable thickness that support localised loads and strengthen the sail where it needs it most.

Double stitching is used on all critical seams on all sails allowing them to endure prolonged exposure to high loads and impacts.

High-strength rip-stop grid made of high-tenacity ULTRA yarns at +/-40 degrees. This yarn has a similar breaking strength to KevlarTM, but much better UV resistance. Available on The Fly / Combat / Wizard.

Overlapping body panels create a sleeve for battens, eliminating the need for traditional, separate batten pockets. This saves on unnecessary weight, simplifies construction and creates a fully symmetrical batten cavity, eliminating the tendency of traditional batten pockets to load differently from one tack to another.

CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY

Our custom printing technology allows us to print the films prior to lamination giving us the flexibility to use multi-coloured, custom graphics. The print is of minimal thickness, reducing weight and producing a higher definition of colour. During lamination the printed side is placed on the inside of the film so there is no need to worry about wear. Your sails will forever remain looking bright and fresh.

2019 SAIL TECHNOLOGY - SAIL FEATURES

SAIL FEATURES TM

FULL KEVLAR TAPE LEECH REINFORCEMENT

Aerodynamic composite mini battens are sewn directly onto the upper sections of the sail for added stability and durability – without a significant increase in weight.

COMPOSITE MINI LEECH BATTENS

As KevlarTM provides ultimate strength to weight ratio for sail making fibers we chose to use fully woven, adhesive KevlarTM tape around the entire leech and foot parameter. This tape stabilises the shape of the leech and foot by preventing any stretch along these extreme parameter load lines. At the same time it provides perfect stitch holding and prevents sails ripping through. Since KevlarTM is sensitive to UV we take care that any time we use KevlarTM in the sail it is completely covered by other materials in order for it to keep its properties after years of use.

POLYURETHANE (PU) MOULDED BATTEN END CHAFE PROTECTOR Protects the ends of the batten pockets from abrasion damage when rigging and de-rigging.

HIGH GRADE PLASTIC BATCAMS Positive lock BatCams, allow the rider to precisely tune and set the batten tension. Easy to open when replacing battens or adjusting batten tension.

PU FOOT PIPING Compact piping for weight reduction protecting foot edge of the sail from wear.

MIN MAX

3D MOULDED HEAD FAIRING

Protects the top of the sail from abrasion damage. Also includes an easy de-rigging loop.

VISUAL TRIMMING SYSTEM

Downhaul the sail until the borderline of the loose leech reaches the “min dot” for low wind condition or “max dot“ for stronger winds. For medium wind range trim between the 2 marks.

BOOM POSITION REFERENCE POINTS

To help you remember exactly where you like to have your boom positioned.

SAIL TOGGLE

All NeilPryde sails include an elastic loop and sail toggle system for keeping the sail rolled up during storage.

FUSE POCKETS

Overlapping body panels create a sleeve for battens, eliminating the need for traditional, separate batten pockets. This saves on unnecessary weight, simplifies construction and creates a fully symmetrical batten cavity, eliminating the tendency of traditional batten pockets to load differently from one tack to another.

NEW 3D MOULDED TACK FAIRING

Compact size for easier rolling and weight reduction. Completely encloses all pulleys and base elements. This helps protect the deck of the board from impact damage. Manufactured from heat moulded closed cell foam to offer maximum protection and minimal weight without water absorption. Includes an uphaul hole for a clean attachment of the uphaul rope. Neoprene front piece makes it easy to fold the tack fairing back when threading the downhaul rope through the sail’s tack pulley.

TRIPLE ROLLER TACK FITTING

A solid metal tack fitting in heavy duty construction. Three large nickel plated rollers offering minimal downhaul friction over an extended lifespan.

TACK MESH POCKET

For easy storage of your downhaul line or any other part.

2019 SAIL TECHNOLOGY - COMPACT CLEW / SAIL SHAPING

COMPACT CLEW

X:RYDE

Outer and inner clew position straight alignment. Retains same clew height and boom to mast rake on both clew positions, reduces weight and prevents rear part of the foot touching the water when jibing.

SPEEDSTER / V8 / RS:RACING EVOX

The compact clew improves control of the sail in two ways: reduced boom length and improved sail twist. It comes in three different configurations depending on sail types and characteristics.

COMBAT / WIZARD / X:WAVE / X:MOVE Moderate Compact Clew for a compact outline with rider focused surface area and improved sail twist.

With the Dynamic Compact Clew, where the clew is positioned forward from the trailing edge, the profile behind the clew is able to twist off when wind pressure increases. The sail automatically adjusts its shape, preventing the draft from moving back and controlling excess power.

TECHNOLOGY

We keep the overall shape of the sail and we add a new batten layout making the sail more stable, with less back-hand pressure that maintains drive and upwind performance. The Fuse Pocket construction in the wave and freestyle CORE:Series program, allows us to reduce the seam shaping and retain power with a much lighter feeling in the hands. A large tuning range, thanks to a stable profile, allows the rider to trim the sail for all conditions. In parallel, the Powerfuse allows us to reduce the weight while increasing the strength in critical sections making the Combat stronger than ever.

DESIGNER’S COMMENT

C3

The legendary Combat stands out as the sail of choice for any wave sailing conditions. No matter which spot, from side-offshore winds and perfect peeling waves to huge onshore white waters, the Combat will never disappoint. Designed for dynamic and aggressive sailors, the Combat delivers low end power when you need it, for as long as you want it. Light for jumping, stable for predictability, and strong for endurance – Combat is equipped to deal with whatever, whenever, and whoever.

TECHNOLOGY

Powerfuse allows us to reduce weight while increasing strength in critical sections making The Fly the lightest and, next to Combat HD, the strongest sail in the NeilPryde range. The narrower PVC/Dacron extended lower luff area of the sail gives a livelier feeling and works as a “suspension” to absorb shock loads present when the sail twists-off in gusts, on chop or when landing jumps. This elastic front section absorbs the shock while at the same time locking the profile distribution to the front. The result is a soft, forgiving sail that is incredibly stable (even when compared to 4 batten sails) and which depowers completely on the wave.

DESIGNER’S COMMENT

The Fly is a truly specialized wave-riding sail. The three-batten compact design combined with the Powerfuse construction and PVC / Dacron lower luff area makes for the lightest, most neutral sail in our range. It totally depowers on the wave and offers great sail control in gusty conditions, allowing you to fully focus on your surfing. Fast, light, soft feeling, compact, heavy duty construction and maneuverable, the Fly provides aggressive rail-riding turns and velocity down the line. Pure surf.

DESIGNER’S COMMENT

SIZES 3.8 4.2 4.5 4.7 5.0 5.3 5.7 6.2

We developed a sail which works for everybody in every type of wave conditions, hence why it’s slightly more powerful. A large tuning range, thanks to a stable profile, allows the rider to trim the sail for all conditions, and allows both light and heavier sailors to be able to get the most out of this sail. Suitable for all sizes of wave boards and freestyle/wave boards.

The new X:Wave HD is based on the 2018 Combat design. Same great shape, slightly more power, better early planing and performance to suit all levels of rider and a wider variety of conditions. The X:Wave HD comes with a longer boom to offer more speed, power and stability and deeper shaping in the bottom 2 battens to further enhance these benefits. Extremely comfortable handling with all the juice you need to get out over the whitewater and make the most of challenging conditions, but still light in the hands and fantastically maneuverable. Ideal for use in all kinds of wave sailing conditions around the globe.

FEATURES

Central moderate profile for optimum balance between upwind power and stability. Increased shaping in mid and forward body section for consistent drive.

We put a lot of effort into the development of this new sail and the entire X:Series, that’s why we are convinced that they will work perfectly for years to come.

The X:Wave HD is built using classic industry standard sail construction, leaving out some of the premium features of our CORE:Series of sails, but with the full heritage of Neilpryde’s design knowledge going into the shapes, allowing us not to compromise on performance but to bring a more accessible sail to the market.

The X:Move HD has a progressive aspect ratio with short boom, small foot area and flat batten profile in small sizes, while in the bigger sizes, increased boom length provides necessary drive in light winds. It suits any kind of conditions from flat water to waves. The right call for travelling due to its versatile usage. Suitable for freewave / free-move and freestyle wave boards.

Based on the 2018 Fusion HD design, the new X:Move HD offers a flavor for every taste. Sitting right between the wave and freeride programs. More stable and more drive than a traditional wave sail, while lighter, more maneuverable and playful in the waves or in the air than a freeride sail. Use anywhere, in any wind strength, on any water condition: learn the basics, jump, catch a wave, or get into freeride mode. With forgiving handling and full HD construction.

High aspect ratio combined with 7 batten layout offers light handling and plenty of power and stability. As close as you can get to a race sail without the complications of cams. 7 batten layout with added profile from the tubular battens gives the sail more shape which leads to more power and better stability. Power is locked in the front of the sail, close to the rider, for maximum control and acceleration. Use every gust to accelerate instantly since the advanced profile of the sail will keep the draft in the same place, leaving you to free concentrate on going as fast as possible. Suitable for freeride, freerace, slalom and pure foil boards.

DESIGNER’S COMMENT

With an outline coming straight from the RS:RACING development program, the SPEEDSTER is an explosive performance Freeride Sport sail. More user friendly than a cam sail (easier to rig, uphaul or jibe). The Speedster is more balanced, it offers greater performance and wind range than a classic freeride sail. The tubular battens allow the center of effort to remain in place while the profile delivers an exhilarating combination of performance, speed and acceleration. Slalom without cambers.

FEATURES Race-inspired luff curve and compact outline ensuring high skin tension and fast reflex for maximum acceleration and top-end speed. Wide sleeve in the middle to upper section for a clean aerodynamic profile and easy mast insertion. Integrated batten pocket construction for a fully symmetrical batten cavity.

Moderate sleeve width combining stability and aerodynamic benefits of wide sleeve racing sails with improved handling and reduced weight.

Deep profile in lower body section for controllable power combined with very smooth leech release and open head twist for acceleration and control in the gusts.

Twin Cam design uses cams in critical area to support deepest profile in the boom area without sacrificing rotation. The profile, supported by these 2 small cams rotates much easier than full size race cams, allows the sail to respond directly to the back hand.

Custom laminated clew for optimized strength and load distribution. It features internally laminated Kevlar stripes that distribute the loads in the Clew area.

Integrated Batten Pocket construction for a fully symmetrical batten cavity.

RDM and SDM compatible masts on these sails: 4.8 / 5.2 / 5.7 / 6.2 / 6.7.

The V8 gives race like feel and performance thanks to a race inspired luff sleeve and deep, powerful profile, alongside the easy handling of a freeride sail. Easier rigging - requires less downhaul tension than a pure race sail and only 2 integracams which also make jibing rotation extremely soft and effortless. V8 is our best option to transition into Slalom and a great Slalom sail option for girls. But that’s not all. It actually became our sail of choice when learning, testing and developing our Windfoil program. Suitable for freeride, freerace, slalom and pure foil boards.

SIZES

TECHNOLOGY

High performance sail based on RS:RACING design and specifically developed to perform both on Windfoil and Slalom boards. The RS:FLIGHT is designed on the concept of real world racing combined with key foiling features. Compared to a pure racing sail, the RS:FLIGHT has a higher aspect ratio, shorter boom and increased foot size to accommodate vertical rake when foiling. The sail delivers quick and precise response instantly allowing the rider to adjust the power by sheeting in or out to control the flying height on the foil. The RS:FLIGHT brings a combination of excellent top-end speed, enhanced bottom-end power, superior control and stability to a wide range of performance minded sailors.

DESIGNER’S COMMENT The profile is concentrated very far forward to make sure all the pressure is in the front hand area. This allows for acceleration in the gusts while at the same time creates a down-force in the sail. It is this down force that allows the rider to keep sheeted in and transfer more pressure on the foil as the speed increases. On the upwind course, the rider is able to tilt the board to the windward, lean very far forward and use the power of the foil to achieve incredible upwind angle; just on the verge where sail would stall.

TECHNOLOGY

The all-new RS:Racing EVOX simply revolutionizes how a racing sail is built: ground-breaking Airflow Batten Layout places battens parallel to the airflow when sailing, reducing drag and improving acceleration and speed. The resulting seven-batten design allowed us to dramatically drop the sail weight and speed up rotation while holding on to stability. EVOX is further charged with reactive leech opening and handling, updated progressive aspect ratio, cleaner panel layout doing away with the unnecessary and four UltraCams. Welcome to the future of fast.

2019 RS:RACING SAIL - RS:RACING EVOX HIGHLIGHTS

HIGHLIGHTS

TRADITIONAL BATTEN LAYOUT

AIRFLOW BATTEN LAYOUT Battens are laid out angled up from the mast and, as a result, they end up laying horizontal and parallel to the airflow when sailing. This cleans the airflow along the sail body and reduce drag. This innovative concept allowed us to reduce the design from eight to seven battens by extending the total length of each batten.

RS:RACING EVOX

MORE ACCELERATION Clean airflow along the sail body reduces drag. Combined with the new leech twist, the sail reacts to every gust and pump, opening instantly to gain that moment of pure acceleration. These improvements result in increased overall top speed.

BETTER STABILITY EVOX is incredibly stable, especially considering it is a seven batten racing sail. The angled batten design gives excellent support to the sail profile, leading the sail to feel far more comfortable through gusts.

LIGHTER WEIGHT The lightest RS:Racing sail ever developed. The weight was reduced by an average of 500g compared to EVO9 while maintaining strong construction and without reducing film thickness. Reducing from eight to seven battens as well as adjustments in the Quadruple Luff Panel Layout and clew construction add to the very significant weight reduction.

FASTER ROTATION Ease and speed of rotation was a top priority in the EVOX evolution. The elimination of one batten and the reduction of the profile in the rear of the sail in the boom area allows the rotation to start to “S-bend” in the back — like a freeride sail — and then smoothly progress through the front, to the UltraCams. Flipping the sail through rotation is much quicker and allows you to exit the jibe faster with greater stability.

HIGHLIGHTS

EVOX

PROGRESSIVE ASPECT RATIO

EVO9

Provides a specific functionality across different sail sizes. Higher aspect ratio in larger sizes (7.8 and up) reduces boom length, delivering light wind efficiency and improving maneuverability. Lower aspect ratio in smaller sizes (7.0 and down) keeps a longer boom helping to maintain top-end control and stability.

1

2

3 4

TWIST SHAPING CONCEPT

Sail twist allows even more release than EVO9, so you feel like you have gained an extra gear. Even with just seven battens, EVOX opens instantly, gaining that moment of acceleration when going through a gust, feeling much more stable and preventing the center of effort from moving back in the sail. The result is reduced backhand pressure that gives smooth acceleration boosts in gusts.

COMPONENT SLEEVE CONSTRUCTION

Combining different materials in the sleeve sections allows us to achieve optimum profile entry stability and elasticity, smooth rotation and light weight. Lightweight Tetoron™upper-front section(1) offers the necessary elasticity and durability to resist direct mast contact. A low stretch Dyneema™ArmourWeb section(2) can take high downhaul tension and is critical in stabilizing the profile entry, providing smooth bridging between UltraCams. A tapered strip of Tetoron™along the back edge of the sleeve(3) where it connects to the sail body is used to provide the necessary elasticity in this area together with improved durability.

The bottom part of the sleeve is finished in our durable and elastic Luff Glide material(4) allowing for important smooth rotation.

QUADRUPLE LUFF PANEL LAYOUT EVOX features four continuous, durable, stretch-resistant and lightweight luff panels that carry most of the sail body shaping. This configuration stabilizes the critical section draft position while providing an increased film thickness proportional to downhaul load distribution.

Starting from the Top: #1 - #2 - #3 (Mini lightweight Batcams combined with tension adjuster set), #4 - #5 (Batcams combined with tension adjuster set) and #6 - #7 (Batcams combined with tube screw adjuster and Allen key for an extra tension system).

ULTRACAMS

Suspended camber system improves sail rotation and acceleration out of jibes. Simultaneous tuning of battens and cambers makes sail tunable for different mast diameters and camber pressure.

FUSE POCKETS

Overlapping body panels create a sleeve for battens, eliminating the need for traditional, separate batten pockets.

This saves on unnecessary weight, simplifies construction and creates a fully symmetrical batten cavity, delivering a fully equal sail on both tacks.

This is by far the strongest and stiffest connection possible and also allows us to keep the shaft and fuselage cross-section minimal, reducing drag. This construction offers the best strength to weight ratio.

Lower lift and less drag at higher speeds.

More lift and stability at lower speed.

This stainless-steel feature minimizes the drag at the end of fuselage and provides a very precise connection through opposing screws countered in tension. There is also +/- 1.5 degree (total 3degree) adjustability available by changing the tension of the front top and bottom screws. Foil is perfectly trimmed for average weight sailor (75-80kg) with tail in neutral position. Heavier sailors, especially when using the large front wing in light winds or during the learning process might prefer slightly more stabilizing force that a down titled rear wing provides. At the same time lighter sailors, especially in strong wind conditions might find a neutral position creates excessive lift and will reduce the differential angle between two wings by tilting the tail slightly up. Tail can be disengaged, maintaining the angle setting.

WINGS COMPATIBILITY

High Speed Wing, Span: 59 cm. Under windier conditions, delivers maximum speed and acceleration.

KEY SPARE PART

Fuselage is designed with a unique cross-section taper where maximum volume is concentrated in the areas of highest loads. The thickest section is the connection of the front wing to the mast; this is the area that transfers the lift of the foil to the board and supports the complete weight of the sailor, board and rig. FLIGHT F4 EVO fuselage has been extended by 12cm for added speed, stability and upwind performance.

2019 Collection Wings are compatible with 2018 Collection RS:FLIGHT F4 fuselage and vice versa.

During carving, there can be extreme torsional forces at the fuselage-to-wing connection area. These forces are created by different lifts on the two sides of the main wing. Part of the wing that is inside the curve experiences lower water velocity and creates lower lift. On the opposite side, the wing sees higher water velocity and creates higher lift; this differential in lifts, particularly extreme when using large wings, results in very high torsional load. To make sure there is adequate strength to support this stress, even with heaviest sailors, we designed a very large and wide connection area. This ‘saddle’ distributes torsion force over a larger area and significantly reduces the torque leverage on the wing screws.

SMOOTH RADIUS INTERSECTION POINTS BETWEEN MAST AND FUSELAGE At the most critical loading stress points (shaft leading and trailing edge-to-fuselage connections), we maintained a large radius in the corners. This has the benefit of distributing the tremendous compression forces existing in this area while at the same time creating a very smooth shape which minimizes turbulences common to hard edges.

2019 FOILS - GLIDE WIND

GLIDE WIND creates foilers. This foil is easy and, most importantly, SAFE.

Our innovative Powerbox system, the Aluminium mast and perfectly blended fuselage offer the best connection to most windsurf boards. Specifically designed to work on narrower boards (from freestyle-wave 100L to large freeride boards). We actually chose this board combination when testing and developing.

GLIDE WIND front wing shape prevents catapults and softens landings. Ideal for early foil stages from schools to clubs. GLIDE WIND is the foil that will finally let you experience the amazing sensation of foiling and see why it is the latest craze in watersports around the globe.

GLIDEWIND GLIDE WIND is our friendly, easy cruising and carving foil. Also suitable for waveriding in small waves and freestyle. With an early take-off it flies at low speed, allowing first time foilers to feel safe and comfortable. This all-round foil focuses on extreme stability, early flying and surprisingly even allows you to ‘zig-zag’ around while foiling. Ever dreamed about foiling but felt that it might be too dangerous or difficult? GLIDE WIND is the perfect tool to get into foiling. It is designed with round edges on the wings for safety and engineered so that the lowest possible speed is required for take-off. We recommend using small sail sizes and any bigger freemove, wave or freestyle board as well as medium size freeride and freerace boards.

2019 MASTS

Mast program is based around three performance levels: TPX100, SPX90-95 and SPX65. All masts are made using pre-preg technology that ensures optimum control of resin content and resin distribution throughout the laminate (avoiding risk of dry spots that could cause local weakness). All masts are featuring our unique Progressive Flex & Bend Curve, compatible with previous sail models. Higher performance level masts will have higher carbon content reducing the weight of the mast as well as significantly increasing reflex and overall performance.

Every NeilPryde sail will perform to its highest potential when used with the specified NeilPryde mast because our sails are designed around our mast curves. The NeilPryde RDM masts are compatible in curve with NeilPryde SDM Masts. Choose a RDM mast for a softer, more forgiving feel and durability and a SDM mast for faster response, stability and more direct feel. We recommend the use of SDM Masts on cambered sails.

TPX100 SDM / RDM 100% carbon prepreg construction using special Torq-Preg construction in the base of the mast. This unique prepreg material features +/- 45 degree fiber orientation. This helps to control torsion, particularly in the boom area. This construction results in extremely light weight mast with very fast response time!

SPX95 SDM / SPX90 RDM 90% carbon in RDM and 95% carbon in SDM. Almost 100% carbon masts made strong! Compared to TPX100 there is additional safety margin in strength built into the mast. Increased hoop prepreg thickness spirally wound around the mast; this layer does not influence the stiffness or bend curve on the mast but increases the strength. It reinforces the column and prevents the mast ovalization during compression, eliminating the main reason of mast breakages.

SPX65 SDM / RDM Now the lowest carbon content in our range. Thanks to the added fiberglass prepreg layers in the lamination process it is virtually indestructible! Use of fiberglass results in considerably thicker wall thickness making it immune to ovalization under compression as well as very resistant to impact damage. In weight it is very close to the previous FLX70 range and we believe this is the minimum carbon content we should recommend for NeilPryde sail.

PROGRESSIVE FLEX & BEND CURVE

The standout feature of NeilPryde masts is the unique flex and bend curve. Our shorter masts are close to ‘flex-top curve’ while longer masts are closer to ‘constant curve’ - this is why we call it the Progressive Flex and Bend Curve.

The distance from the mast bottom to the boom is relatively constant between all mast lengths. Short masts are supported by the boom head at a relatively higher point than long masts. To compensate for much less ‘flexing length’ above the boom, short masts will have a relatively softer top section compared to long ones as there is much more sail area above the boom that needs to be supported by the mast.

All NeilPryde mast models of the same size will have the same bend curve. This means you are not limited to a particular mast model to match your sail. The curve will only differ across different mast sizes, regardless of the model.

Because of the importance of the sail and mast relationship, and the complexities involved, it is essential to use a NeilPryde mast with a NeilPryde sail.

This ensures you can benefit from the full wind range on offer and spend minimal time tuning. All NeilPryde masts are designed with the NeilPryde Progressive Flex and so when used with a NeilPryde sail they have the correct shaping, twist and ability to remain stable in variable conditions. Higher end carbon masts have a faster reflex response and so the mast will return to its original shape with more speed creating better acceleration, speed and control.

2019 EXTENSIONS MXT

MXT Used by most sailors on the PWA TOUR, the Mono-Button Mast Base and Extension System (MXT) has been designed to offer a secure, heavy duty connection and ease of operation. The MXT Extensions are fully integrated with stainless steel cleat/pulley bottom assemblies offering the best weight to stiffness ratio and creating very light but also very strong extensions. The weight has been reduced by eliminating all unnecessary plastic while increasing the cross-section of stainless steel parts for increased strength. This part can now withstand over 900kg of downhaul load – twice as much as used on the largest racing sails. The special geometry with tilt bottom pulley makes perfect sail pulley/rope alignment. This allows the sail to be downhauled all the way down (block-to-block) and it reduces downhauling friction.

STRONG INTEGRATED PULLEYS

ROPE CLEAT

MXT LARGE MONO-BUTTON

The rope cleat is integrated into the stainless caste structure and is perfectly aligned with pulleys for streamlined profile, maximum strength and reduced friction of lines.

Load carrying stainless caste structure - transfers load directly from the pulleys onto the extension tube without relying on any plastic components. Stainless pulleys for less friction and greater durability.

2019 EXTENSIONS UXT

UXT Universal pin extension system (UXT) is designed with solid aluminium tubes. Clamshell Adjustment System allows for easy and user friendly operation in all temperatures. Combined with double pulleys for friction-free, high tension downhauling. Mounted with Marlow rope.

ALU UXT SDM EVO 36 Code: REUX3E000S0M036

MAST / BASE

The outer diameter of the upper mast cap is larger than the diameter of the extension tube. This, combined with the stepped collar of the Clamshell, creates a cavity thus preventing the carbon mast and alloy tube to be in contact, preventing oxidation and corrosion.
