QUAD
Power Freeride
5.4 / 6.0 / 6.6 / 7.2 / 7.9
Continuing from 2011, the QUAD is a strongly built, full X-ply sail, perfect for bump & jump through to fast free ride conditions.
The QUAD line will appeal to those looking for a recreational sail that is designed to last.
Available with 6 battens the Quad is a powerful cross over freeride sail, with a fair amount of surface area under the boom on the bigger sizes, - while the smaller sizes get a comparatively reduced foot area for better control in manoeuvres.
Top speed is a dream with this sail, - assisted by the Strip Draft Locker (SDL) for ultimate control, which works effortlessly to maintain stability and control at all times.
Built in 100% Grid Monofilm
U-SURF
Tri Fin
A TRUE SURFBOARD FEELING
Based upon a proven shape, the new U-SURF Tri-fin offers the very best in terms of comfort, speed and manoeuvrability. Users of previous U-Surf models will find familiarity in its performance, but it will also exceed many of your expectations in several departments;
Tri-fin boards are an excellent option for wave riding due to the centre fin giving plenty of drive through those bottom turns. You will still have the drive of a single fin board, although you can really squeeze the turns that bit more if needed. Your top turns will become sharper and looser than experienced using ‘single fins’ but with better control than ‘twinzer’s’. The result is maximum efficiency and precision in the waves.
The U-SURF Tri-fin is truly an all round wave board, which also offers excellent planning and upwind abilities.
SHARK line
Wave onshore
As an evolution of its successful predecessor this new generation of the Shark line has been fine tuned to excel in all conditions.
Although tuned to deliver amplified power, the control is also better than ever. From down the line to tricky mushy conditions, the Shark will be your best friend. Equipped with the Strip Draft Locker (SDL) the foil is always in total control whether you are jumping or riding waves.
Well adapted to wave conditions, but still an effective and capable cross-over sail when called upon as a Freestyle and Freeride performer.
Built in 100% Grid Monofilm
CURVE LINE
The Curve line has evolved from our established longboard line, and for 2012 we have simplified the line up with common graphic styling, and offered in Bamboo deck construction adding visually to the surf orientated concept of this line, along with all boards being equipped with Tri fin.
SKULL
Sideshore Waves
3.3 / 3.7 / 4.0 / 4.2 / 4.5 / 4.7 / 5.0 / 5.3 / 5.6
The new skull is all new for 2012, providing superb build quality and offered with 4 battens, the sail offers all the necessary power and stability in order to suit hard core wave riders through to recreational windsurfers looking for an attractive sail to suit all conditions.
FUSION
Freestyle Wave
3.0 / 3.5 / 4.0 / 4.5 / 5.0 / 5.5 / 6.0 / 6.5 / 7.0
The FUSION remains a three batten wave sail, and is ideal for longboard wave riding or Wind-SUP (windsurfing on a SUP).
The FUSION is also an exceptional sail for lighter sailors (women and children for example) on their shortboards. The 2012 Fusion has also benefited from some increased stability.
With only 3 battens and constructed with the lightest materials available, the Fusion is setting new standards in terms of sail R&D.
It will certainly be a “shocking experience” sailing in the waves or free-styling with this creation as it is so light that you will barely notice it’s power and performance. The SDL’s are especially designed to sustain the shape where the shape should be and all of the materials used are carefully selected to serve the purpose of a high tech performance sail.
The Fusion delivers the perfect combination of power, lightness, precision and performance. Try one ….
