Handmade Sails uit Italië
Lot of Job since the end of 2008
Till 2012 with the great Anders Bringdal then I have to press all I learned in the last years to try to support the Big Bad in this interesting adventure !
In 2015/2016 we did a little revolution with a new outline and the foil a bit more on the back
Light feeling and good speed (just for the 5.4 we did 18 proto… what a effort for Challenger Sails! )
Then the Chief, Mr. Bad, propose me to do a Signature series… Great!
So from 2017 we developed the Principe Speed Line
During the 2019 I found out that a leech less negative can deliver more speed and still keep the control … We took a while for testing … now we are going to set up all the sizes… with the proper mast!!
Soon it will be ready all the line 2022!!
Stay Tuned, Forever Speed!
The GT3-FRC is the little sister of our competition slalom sail RaceSF. Based on the concept and panels of this contest winning fin and foil hybrid race sail the GT3-FRC performs equally well on fin AND foil. Many updates and modifications make this sail light and easy in your hands. At the same the GT3 doesn't lose its racing DNA. Fabio Canella and Patrik Diethelm gave it a more narrow mastsleeve while mainly keeping the original panels of the RaceSF. The softer mastsleeve material makes the sail more alive and a little more forgiving. Clearly designed to work absolutely best on RDM masts there will be a SDM camber set available for purchase to modify the GT3 to SDM use. With the RDM standard configuration the sail feels lighter, faster and has a much better handling in the jibes.
SHAPE AND FEEL
The FoilRide is the easiest to ride out of our five (!) pure foil boards, the FoilCompV2, the FoilRace, the FoilRide, the FoilMove and the FoilStyle.
It's a little narrower in the tail than the FoilRace and the FoilComp. The FoilRide doesn't have cutouts which makes the accelleration more even, easier to control and more stable. Usually freeriders don't use a lot of rake on the foil mast so the additional sinking of the tail as a scondary result of the cutouts is not needed to give the foil a positive angle of attack. It's way more important to give the rider the confidence and safety to gain trust in foiling quickly and improve from session to session.
The FoilRace is the easier little sister of our pure foil competition machine FoilCompV2. It is able to match the FoilComp's race performance by 98% but is a little more rider friendly than its competition equivalent.
As said before the outline and concept is very close and similar to the FoilCompV2 but less extreme in the details. The cutouts are designed to favour passive accelleration a little better than on the FoilCompV2. They still allow for active pumping and sinking of the tail with raked foils. If you are looking for one foil board to cover any flatwater conditions from freeride to racing this board is for you.
Radical cutbacks, tight turns and outstanding control are more accessible than ever before with the new Da Curve 2023.
Its unique waveriding performance in perfect down-the-line conditions is well-known by windsurfers around the world, but the Da Curve also unfolds its immense agility in less than ideal waves and onshore winds.
Especially the straighter rocker on bigger sizes adds incredible planing characteristics, which allow you to accelerate quickly and boost into huge jumps or catch waves in onshore conditions.
The smaller models combine controllability and stellar manoeuvrability, which leads to radical waveriding and a uniquely loose feeling. The Da Curve is the waveriders choice and will fascinate you with its versatility!
No matter what conditions you might face on the slalom course or at your local spot, the Manta will always make you fly at maximum velocity.
Impressive acceleration, outstanding top speed and easy handling make the Manta the right choice for slalom racers and those aiming for highest speed at their local spot.
Push the limits on the water and fly past other windsurfers and over the finish line in first place with the Manta.
