Light Sails are More Fun!

It’s great when the latest and greatest technology translates into more fun for your dollar – and that’s exactly what is happening with high tech windsurfing sails! 

Maui Sails started using Technora in their formula race sails, and it worked so well that they are now using it in the Ghost XT (pictured at right) wave sail and in a limited release of the Titan.  The Titan XT is one of the lightest weight cambered sails available, but only a few were produced for 2010.  If you want to be one of the few folks to get your hands on this awesome sail – call 727-656-6569 or e-mail us (britt@nbwindsurfing.com) quick to put in your order for a 7.5m or 8.5m!

Severne is also  offering a light weight wave/freestyle sail with the S1, constructed of KS Optic X-ply (a blend of spectra and aramic fibers).  In addition to being light weight, these high tech fabrics are more durable than standard mono-film.  That means you can venture into the waves, even if you’re unsure of your ability to handle the shore break!

Aerotech sails was one of the first companies to go high-tech with their cuben fiber construction.  For 2010 they have moved to UDL04, and aramid technora material, and offer the Charge, Phantom, Rapid Fire and Free Speed in this light weight construction. 
Contact us for great prices on any of these sails – remember, life is too short to sail on junk!
