Until now the resurgence of performance four-batten sails has been limited to manoeuvre-oriented designs like the Edge. The brand new 4-batten Concept blends crisp freeride performance with effortless light handling in light to medium winds.
Ken Black studied a wide range of freeride windsurfers in holiday centres. He noticed many riders blasting around on unsuitable freestyle rigs – which are light but lack the drive necessary to power larger boards effectively.
Power combined with the super-easy handling and light weight of the Concept make it the very best sail for progression and with respectable top-end stability, it will last well beyond the early stages of planing.
Riders who thrive on well-powered or overpowered sailing should look towards the Storm or T4 , with top-end stability that excels in stronger winds.
