Francisco Goya has always had a heart for racing, so developing the new Mark 2 in collaboration with him came natural. If anything, the focus was on lightening the sail significantly.
Further emphasis was placed on a lighter handling feel and highwind control through refined luff curves and seam shapes as well as the Mark 2’s outline.
The boom lengths on all sizes are shorter compared to previous years.
All this said, the Mark 2 remains our throroughbred 2 Camber performance Freerace sail. A combination of excellent top-end speed, performance oriented bottom-end power, superior control and stability.
The Mark 2 offers white knuckle cam sail speed and cam sail stability without needing to rig “oversized”. You can enjoy the blistering speed and range of the sail without feeling like you are wrestling a dinosaur. The Mark 2 is best rigged in range, meaning not oversized. The design is cut to be super powerful, with the idea being to ride this sail as small as you can for the board you have. This means your sail is easier to handle because it’s smaller, there is greater efficiency overall and also less energy spent handling through maneuvers and transitions.
The Mark 2 is highly interactive, it can set a line and blaze, but it also likes quick changes of direction, upwind, deep off the wind, speed lines and carving turns. A high-performance sail based on flat out racing designs and specifically developed to perform on Hydrofoil and Slalom boards alike. Designed with real world racing and foiling in mind, it pairs best with the Proton Pro IV.
RDM or SDM compatible on all sizes, except 5.4, 5.8.
