The ultimate NoCam performance sail. This fairly high-tension foil guarantees maximum performance without camber induced support. Compared to the previous model, it has improved planing without compromising control when over-powered. This added versatility combines spontaneous performance delivery with top speed, and offers all the handling and rigging advantages of a NoCam sail.
For you this means enormous thrust AND the ease of use of a NoCam sail for enjoying maneuvers.
The X_TYPE draws its potential from HYPER.LEECH II and TT.TOP II, which ensure a more active twist. In addition, it features a slightly lower profile for more low-down power, and a pressure point further at the front.
This facilitates rig control and steering, and significantly contributes to what is an unusually high stability pressure point for a NoCam sail. Thanks to the PROGRESSIVE.BATTEN.CONFIGURATION, all X_TYPE models feature batten numbers relevant to size and application, with Kai Hopf managing to perfect the 6.0 and 5.4 sizes with just 6 battens. This helps reduce weight and improves handling.
In sails starting at 6.6m2, the rig’s agility reaps a huge benefit from the CUTAWAY.CLEW outhaul, that allows for the use of a shorter boom while minimizing the rotation forces of the X_TYPE. What’s more the X_TYPE can be used with a single 460 mast - one mast fits all!
