AC-K |
slalom / freerace 3 kembry |
DESIGNED FOR Slalom speed seekers, who are looking for an easier race cambered sail. Nowadays, if you are looking to have a cam sail with high performance, you are forced to go for the same no compromise sail as the pro:a race sail, can be very demanding and taking lots of energy for no reason, unless you are using it on a race course. Other option would be to choose for a 3-cam sail where the performance will be highly reduced by changing outline, batten number, cam number, sleeve size, opening of the leach and many other aspects. Our development was to bring our AC-one sail to keep its pedigree, but from this, develop an easier version in the characteristics which was needed. As all the features of our AC-One were already super friendly, the only thing we did, was to reduce the mast sleeve size, which would bringpower that only pro sailors would need. Allow a softer and faster jibe rotation, and to have a batten construction which would be easy to replace in case of accidents. The new AC-K pro benefits from the same 3 XXL cams which allow an amazing rotation, 7 battens without having complicated glued or pined parts, same outline, leach opening and stance as the AC-one. A lighter AC-One version, ready to compete at any level, and dedicated for a larger public that were forced before to choose race sails for no reason.A real Super Naked from the race sails. 3cam sails, 4 cams sails: wording belonging to the past life of slalom. Now a cam sails it’s either for Racing at pro level, or to race between your friends, and it has 2 names: AC-ONE, or AC-Kpro. |
IT'S CHARACTER Take all the goodies from a full-on competition slalom sail, put them into a manageable package and you’ve got the AC-K. Featuring a medium sized luff pocket, a sweet smooth rotating 3-cam set-up combined with a lot of low-end power to get planing nice and early. The AC-K is a high-speed powerhouse that is easy to handle and sits ridiculously light in your hands, keeping the board at a steady hover above the water to give you the best possible control and speed out of your kit. The AC-K is an incredibly fast and light handling sail to use, flattering even the nervous rider with a blistering performance. In light marginal winds, the high skin tension and shallow-draft combination does mean that the AC-K will leave the passive sailor wanting, when others in the group have long since pumped their way onto the plane. An experienced sailor will work around this and counter any loss of direct feedback with good technique. Instead, take the AC-K out in comfortably powered conditions and you instantly understand its qualities – it is simply all about speed, and makes going fast easy! Let the pressure build steadily, lock your stance in place, hold on and let the magic happen. Slicing through the air, it is effortless to cover ground on and whilst rapid on all points of sail, seemed to point beautifully close to the wind. The centre of effort is low and quite far back, focussed around the rider and providing feedback through both hands. It is just so balanced and requires little technical input or energy expenditure from the pilot, enabling them to prolong their drag-racing sessions. The faster you sail, the lighter the AC-K’s handling, which is also very apparent in transition, thereby encouraging you to enter and maintain your speed throughout |
ON THE WATER It’s not about freeriding, it’s nothing less than pure acceleration, speed and control. This is what is experienced as soon as you close the gap of the AC-K. The power is balanced between both arms and the sail keeps accelerating without having to pull or work with your arms. Just relax them and let your body weight sit comfortable on the balanced profile from the sail. The light feel and easy rotation of the sail, will let you enjoy and execute perfect fast jibing without having to lose energy and power. As the wind picks up the sail becomes lighter, more fun and will not demand to switch to a smaller sail so easily.

RACE RESULTS Let’s bring it also on PWA!! |
WHATS NEW FOR ZERO21 Taking the 2021 development of the AC-One and reducing by only 20% the mast sleeve width from batten 6 and 30% of the width on the other battens. Keeping the rig light and increasing its overall acceleration power and stability. |

DEVELOPMENT TARGET |
Creating a race sail which would allow the rider to save more energy and spend more hours on the water.A full race sail has power which is only needed by heavy PWA riders to accelerate with loads of drive out of a jibe, or for full downwind courses, which are trajectories that are done only on some radical race PWA courses. The AC-K pro is a pure race sail to have fun, without going on too depowered simple 3 or 2 cam sails for free-racing. |

Point-7 je vzrušující příběh, který se začal psát v roce 2005 díky vizionáři Andreovi Cucchimu. Když spatřil obrovský potenciál pro inovaci a obnovení zájmu o windsurfing v nové generaci, rozhodl se vykročit směrem k tomuto ambicióznímu cíli.
Jeho odvaha spojila osobní výzvu s podnikatelským duchem. Chtěl vytvořit zbrusu novou značku, která by dokázala konkurovat gigantům na trhu windsurfingového vybavení a získat uznání na světové windsurfingové scéně, včetně prestižní PWA (Professional Windsurfers Association).
Příběh začíná v okamžiku, kdy Andrea nemohl naskočit do letadla na svou plánovanou akci v Turecku. Letadlo náhle změnilo trasu a jeho vybavení se do něj nevešlo. Místo zoufalosti využil tento nečekaný volný čas k zahájení svého projektu. Oslovil tři lidi s otázkou, zda by mohli podpořit jeho nápad. Možná se ne všichni přidali k projektu, ale všichni sdíleli nadšení pro vytvoření něčeho nového a odvážného.
Zvláště jeho otec, Roberto Cucchi, stál u zrodu této nové značky a nadále ji podporuje. Jeho zkušenosti a vášeň jsou stále klíčovými pilíři společnosti Point-7. Roberto zůstává aktivní a stále přináší nové nápady, které pomáhají posouvat tuto značku vpřed.
Point-7 je tak příběhem odvahy, odhodlání a rodinného ducha, který spojil vizionářského syna s podnikavým otcem, aby vytvořili značku, která dnes patří mezi špičky ve světě windsurfingu.
