The EXTRA-SMALL sail has been designed for very light sailors. It is very flat and simple to use. Light sailors will be able to reach high performances in terms of speed and angle also in strong wind.
The RED model needs no introduction: winner of many World championships, it is the most well-known sail and the easiest to use. It’s a cross-cut sail and suitable for light sailors up to 38 kg (85 lbs). Even if we suggest it for light sailors and to start the Optimist career, it’s possible for expert sailors to obtain high performances as well.
S-RACE represents a radical change compared to the previous ones. The new design based on a different geometry leads to a more powerful sail on the top, open and easy to trim. The simplicity in its trimming allows to have high speed and performances. We suggest it for light/medium sailors from 35 kg up to 41 kg (77 up to 90 lbs).
M-RACE has been developed for medium weight sailors between 38 kg and 44 kg (85-100 lbs). Working on a rotation of the geometry the sail results more open on the top and therefore easy to use, with high performances and no need for meticulous trimming. Taking advantage of this sail’s potential our testers certified that it’s possible to sail closer to the wind without losing speed.
RADIAL, as with all radial sails, is more responsive to trimming than the cross-cut ones. On the other side, the shape is more stable and this offers a longer life. It has powerful entries, the maximum depth has been moved forward and it has flatter exits.
L-RACE is designed for sailors over 45 kg (100 lbs). Despite being the most powerful among the new models, coming from a change in their geometry, it is still easy to open on the top and to trim also in light wind conditions without losing its power.
