HIGH-PERFORMANCE HYBRID RACING SAIL FOR FIN AND FOIL.

OVERVIEW

Closely based on the successfull RACE SF fin and foil slalom sail, the new RACE MA takes your riding to the next level. "MA" stands for "medium aspect" and describes the carefully tuned medium aspect ratio of the sail which gives you the most balanced performance on foil and fin you can ever imagine. THE MA IS clearly more powerful than the RACE HA and drives you through the jibes when being used on the fin. It has enough grunt and power to accelerate you to the front at the starting line. At the same time the optimised release and breathing gives you a sail that's relatively light on the backhand and will perform amazingly well on the foil.

WHAT'S NEW?

UPDATES FROM RACE SF TO RACE MA:

Same aspect ratio than Race-SF (same boom and same luff length)

Steeper batten angles for improved release and more control

Wider sleeve at the top for more power and better aerodynamics

Lighter overall construction without compromising durability

3 top batten tensioners in the front for reduced swing weight

New sail graphics with improved view for the rider

CONSTRUCTION

The sail construction has been carefully optimised to save weight where you feel it the most without compromising on the stiff frame of the sail, that creates the incredible power and control our racing sails have. The three top batten tensioners have been moved to the front to reduce the swing weight at the leech and let the top part of the sail breathe more freely. Reinforcements have been optimised and new materials have been chosen to bring you the perfect strengh-to-weight ratio. Our sails will last you many many races and sessions without wearing and stretching and without becoming impossible to ride after only months like some competitors ultra light sails. With PATRIK you buy a solid quality built sail that's been designed with Swiss precision and that's been fully tested in detail by our R&D team.

PRO TIPS

JIMMY THIÉMÉ (PWA Rider) "The Race MA is a medium-aspect hybrid sail for fin and foil slalom. It's the sail our international riders Jimmy Thiémé and Marion Mortefon will use for PWA Fin Slalom-X. This year we've worked a lot on the accelleration of the sail to make it 100% suitable for fin slalom. We managed to extend the wind range and reduce the weight. Due to its relatively light feel on the backhand the MA is a great choice for foiling too. Of course our Race HA is beating it on the foil but if you want one sail that does it all or want to be flexible and quick when changing between fin and foil disciplines the MA is for you!"

MARION MORTEFON (2x World Champion) "This is my favourite sail for PWA fin slalom. I love the light feel of the Race MA in my hands. It's super efficient and is giving me a great balance between low-end and unlimited top speed. I benefit a lot from the improved weight compared to last year's sails. The windrage is even bigger now and the control is another level. If you want the best racing sail out there for fin slalom, slalom X and long distance - get the Race MA now!"
