MEET THE WAVE! NORTH WINDSURFING'S NEW WAVE SAIL
Taking you beyond where you thought possible. Meet the Wave.
Loaded with the best of 3Di technology the Wave sail is 3x stronger, up to 40% lighter, and 4x longer lasting than any other sail produced. The low swing weight gives you maximum accuracy and will be in your quiver for many years to come.
“The Wave is super light, yet incredibly strong and durable. It’s an exceptional combination not seen before in windsurfing,” said Pieter Bijl, Head of Research and Development for North Windsurfing.
“From the first time trying these new sails, I felt something I’ve never felt in a traditional sail. The way the sail absorbs the wind and transforms it into forward drive is unlike anything I’ve experienced before,” said Antoine Martin, the first athlete on the North Windsurfing roster.
With North Sails’ new Wave sail windsurfing has changed in ways you couldn’t have imagined. For the better. This featherweight sail wants to be thrown around. Low swing weight gives you maximum precision while doing so, allowing you to surf as hard as you are willing to push it. No stitching, no seams. All moulded into one piece out of exclusive Dyneema Aramid Fibers, giving you a super strong sail that will be in your quiver for many years to come. This sail is designed for the most radical of wave sailors in the most radical of conditions, charging down the line with a very active sailing style. The waves are its home. Truly a wave sail unlike any other sail out there today. Revolutionary technology for windsurfing, brought to you exclusively by North Sails. Go Beyond.
Product Features:
A relatively compact outline, with a slightly reduced luff length, for low swing weight in maneuvers. The profile of the wave is slightly forward-oriented, subtle enough for the sail to power up easily, but remains active, agile, and playful. 3 battens in 4.7 and smaller, 4 battens in 5.3 to 5.8, for a super smooth and lightning-quick transition between power-on and power-off. Maximum wind range, stability, and responsiveness with fewer battens, and lighter weight, thanks to the 3Di Molded Construction.
3Di Molding provides unlimited precision in sail making, an unmatched process in the world of windsurfing. When combined with windsurfing’s only simulation software, you hold today’s best sail making technology in your hands.
Molding the sails in 3D determines the shape. This means we can add unlimited shaping or twist in the sails without being limited to batten position. 3Di skins can transition seamlessly from thicker parts, to hold tension and resist impact, to other areas in the sails which are thinner, lighter and softer. 3Di Molding provides unlimited precision in sail making, unmatched in the world of windsurfing.
