Joao Rodrigues, Patrik Pollak and Curro Manchon are top-flight competitors who have achieved numerous wins and podiums in World and European Championships. Their input allows Loftsails to dominate the international Raceboard class. Arguably the strongest team of any brand in Raceboard class, they work closely with Monty Spindler to develop and improve Loftsails Raceboard designs. The new ULW 9.5 sail is a development of the ultra-successful LW design, but with enhanced light wind capabilities. Stability comes from a 5 batten (3 cam) frame. The profile has been redistributed and fine-tuned to improve performance both upwind and downwind. The ULW also benefits from improved pumping response. The new HW 9.5 sail is in its element as the wind gets stronger. We took the panel layout from the light and robust LW variant, optimized the profile, and tuned it for a 7 batten (3 cam) frame. The result is a sail that is fast and stable in winds over 16 knots. The new Raceboardblade 9.5 is a 6 batten (3 cam) sail that offers tactical flexibility on the racecourse. It is positioned between the ULW and HW sails, with a performance window optimised for the middle wind range. All designs possess extreme trim sensitivity within their intended wind ranges.
