Item # nsrt666zznorthrtypesail
The new North R-Type Windsurfing Sail was also designed for freeride and widebody boards to cover a wide wind range. Its low end profile and improved twist dynamics provide extreme acceleration from low speeds, very early planing and effortless gliding through wind holes. These properties make the R-Type the perfect choice on days with marginal planing conditions. Unlike nocam sails, the super soft rotating Hyper Cams keep up a solid profile even without sufficient wind pressure and substantially enhance stability. At the same time, the two cambers push the upper limit of the wind range almost into infinity. To keep the weight as low as possible, we use only six ultra light battens, four of which are extremely stiff Box Battens.
Key Features of the North R Type 6.6 Windsurfing Sail:
Dura Luff Patch avoids damage to the luff panel from rigging - Reinforces the area around the boom, creates a smooth transition to the monofilm and prevents cracks in the film.
Hyper Cam - the first hard camber that rotates like a soft cam - The rollers have a new shape that permits sliding them up any mast (independent of its diameter) instead of snapping them on.
X Ply 725 foot construction - The lighter version of the legendary NORTH SAILS TRIAX material. Extremely durable but significantly lighter than the original material.
