It is used with a pole to release the spinnaker from the tight coverage of the mainsail. This type of spinnaker is very beneficial to go downwind to angles that asymmetrical spinnaker could not reach. The spinnakers have a surface bigger than symmetrical spinnakers. The disadvantage of this type of spinnaker is that the use of a pole requires a larger crew and makes maneuvering a bit more complicated than for an asymmetrical spinnaker. This inconvenience can however be eliminated by using a spinnaker sleeve (sold separately ) to facilitate the raising and the lowering of the spinnaker without risking a tear or involuntary maneuver. The spinnaker, very supported, will go downwind with a relative wind of 120 ° to 180 °. Its form, its share of directed cut " full radial "offers a remarkably stable profile and do not require constant adjustment . A great sail to go downwind safely.
