S_TYPE North Sails Windsurf

The S_TYPE is one of our most successful sails in all international magazine tests and is considered as THE reference in this class. Better than any other sail the S_TYPE combines acceleration with impressive performance and incredible speed without compromise to control or handling.

One can immediately feel that this sail incorporates not only all our experience from the NORTH SAILS racing range, but also the power and the latest features of the RAM F10. It‘s fascinating too that that the S_TY PE has gained functionality and is no even more suitable for a larger range of board types.

This is partly due to the familiar SWITCHABLE.CAM.OPTION allowing the sail to be ridden with either 3 or 2 cambers, and in particular to the CUTAWAY.CLEW outhaul that significantly improves handling thanks to a shorter boom and reduced rotation forces.

Another reason is the medium-size CONICAL.AERO.SLEEVE.DESIGN mast pocket. This represents the ideal compromise between optimum propulsion and comfortable waterstart behavior. Regardless whether at high speed or simply cruising and jibing, the S_TYPE has many faces - the perfect universal performer.

As to its durability: Apart from legendary features such as DOUBLE.SEAM and DURATECH.FOOT, we gave the CROSS.BATTEN additional seam protection to prevent chafing. Simply ingenious: All S_TYPE models work ideally with one mast length!
