JOHN SKYE ABOUT THE Y25 SAIL COLLECTION
Y25 is something special for us. Not only a quarter century, but probably the cleanest and most refined sail collection we have ever produced. We took every range, every sail, every size and stripped out all that was not totally essential, leaving behind the purest range conceivable. We now split our main collection into 3 easy to understand line-ups, making everything clearer and simpler.
On top of this, all our most popular sails are also available in our industry leading Compact Series technology. This is our unique folding sail system and collapsible rig that allows a full quiver of sails to fit inside a back pack. Huge advances in both the performance and the technical finish, means that more than ever before we offer no compromise, test winning, high performance rig, with industry changing levels of convenience.
New for this year we add our Foil sail range. 3 sails dedicated to the art of flying. The X-wing foil is our full foil race machine, designed to fly in virtually zero wind. The F-Wing is our hybrid sail, allowing both fast windfoiling and freerace windsurfing all in one easy to rig package. Finally we introduce the Freefoil sail, a small light, powerful, yet playful, foiling engine. Designed to allow the smallest sail to be used in the lightest of winds, it is now possible to foil with a sub 6m sail in 10-12kts, something that has truly game changing possibilities.
Like always on top of this is our unique Italian Style. With a spectacular new colourway, whose clean lines are defined with bold colour blocks, that looks great on its own, but when coupled with the latest board sets the rider apart.
Simply. Stunning.
