A familiar concept – unique execution. Children, youngsters and smaller riders up to 160 cm in height often struggle with regular sails because of their stature, strength and limited lever forces, putting them at risk of injury or health problems as well. At the same time they are often more talented surfers than others, so they are right to demand a full-featured and easy-to-control rig. For these individuals we have specifically developed the NOW – a highly lightweight, powerful and high-quality performance handling sail developed based on the current SUPER HERO model yet adapted so it can be used by smaller riders with ease. While most sailing brands use the same layouts and materials for junior sails as in their adult-sized sails for reasons of simplicity (e.g. the heavy X.PLY), we do things differently. Thanks to the years of collaboration with all the big windsurfing schools (e.g. VDWS, ION Club, FBC), we have taken advantage of their wealth of knowledge to design the NOW. The magnificently balanced shape, lightweight monofilm and sophisticated mix of materials in the iMODULAR DESIGN guarantee low weight AND durability.
ADAPTED ELASTICITY
Straighter luff curve, 3-batten-layout and our CONVEX DACRON LUFF-PANEL all result in a softer sail ideal for lighter riders
SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT
The 3-batten-layout, SUPER-LIGHT BUMPER and our WEIGHT OPTIMIZED PANEL-LAYOUT all result in a super lightweight ideal for smaller-framed riders
VTS DOWNHAUL 2.0
Optional QUICK RIGGING PATCH allows "to the spot" downhaul trimming without even looking to the top (patent pending)
HOLLOW LOWER LEECH
Hollow Lower Leech (scooped leech outline) stabilises the profile right above the boom and prevents leech fluttering
XPLY PLUS
Laminate (100/150 micron) with the lowest stretch and best UV- and puncture resistance on the market
TRI PLY
Tri Ply foot panel (150 micron): additional 3rd thread direction increases rip-stop ability by 30%
Epoxy Battens
Unbreakable Epoxy Battens
iROCKET 2.0
Factory calibrated individual batten tensions using a torque wrench
