Racing sail : symmetric spinnaker
MATRIX
UK-Halsey International
UK-Halsey newest spinnaker, the Matrix, is different from other chutes. We've taken a number of extra steps in building this sail to insure that it's faster than any other spinnaker you can buy.
While others continue to be content shaping their spinnakers with a little bit of taper along the radials, or in the joining seams, we've taken the extra step of "rocking" entire panels so that the Matrix's thread lines are exactly aligned with the load paths.
This unique matching of thread line to load path produces extraordinary results. There's a better strength-to-weight ratio in the UK-Halsey Matrix. That means a wider range of both wind angles and wind speeds for a given cloth weight of spinnaker.
The matrix doesn't distort in the center section like many competitive spinnakers so the leeches don't tighten and slow you down when you're reaching.
