    Sail development has really increased, and although some of the alterations were slight I could see how those would immensely improve the windsurfers abilities to perform the various extents of tracking and gybing and have less of a strain on the people performing those. The descriptions of the alterations were excellent also 👍

    Great interview Ben. A bit disappointing of Pieter though that he forgot to mention Justyna Sniady on his wave team, who rode his sails to second place in the 2022 PWA wave tour.

    North 3D sails has revolutionised sailing at nearly every level and is the go to technology if you want to win races and money is not the object. It's obvious, that they are still scratching their heads over some windsurf specific topics but they will not give up until they have won PWA titles.
    I am sure, that in the not to distant future the Pros will be queuing up to get on to the North Sails slalom and foil race team.

    I am really interested by North new range and above all "new" technology (compared to other manufacturers), a light, durable and non tearing sail body is very attractive to me, the idea of being able to keep a sail for years without having splits in the monofilm or some part of the sail cracking is definitely seducing. Had a very lovely pink NP Atlas HD, ti handled very well, but after 2 years the bottom where the downhaul pulley is stitched cracked. I've had the strap replaced with a strong and longer dyneema one, and the sail cracked a little higher and is dead now. 100 sessions before the first issue, 24 more before the final death (and 3/4 of those were in foil where the sail is not suffering at all).

    • @doofercall
      @doofercall 27 днів тому

      I thought one of the coolest practical things about the construction was precisely what he explained about, first, how the layup stops any tear or puncture from spreading; and second, how a simple patch will then accomplish a repair.

    @Phil-ry2ux 16 днів тому

    Freespeed - on normal panelled sails you cant have the inbuilt shape? Then have a look at Ezzy Cheetah. Handles like a wave sail? Doubt that. With a freerace you want the instant power out of gybes, you dont get that with wave flat sails. Nobody mentioning the small window and restricted view?
