Excellent light air performance; the choice for light-to-moderate air close reaching. Generally referred to as the Code Zero.
Genoa-like shape.
Can be used on a furler.
Leech length 90% of luff.
70% of maximum area and 40% larger than a genoa.
TWA of 70-130, AWA of 30-10° depending on girth and velocity.
Critical for the newest swept-back-spreader rigs with non-overlapping jibs.
Foot length typically 168% of SPL, Mid-girth 75% of foot or smaller if rule allows.
A1 - VMG LIGHT-AIR
FEATURES
Designed as a light to moderate air running sail.
Slightly smaller and flatter in the head sections to optimize light air performance.
Flatter, specialized shape for light air tacking angles.
100% of maximum area.
TWA 100-150 degrees, AWA of 70-120°.
Foot length 180% of SPL.
Mid-girth typically 90-95% of foot.

A2 - AP RUNNING
FEATURES
Designed as a light to moderate air running sail.
Full, powerful sections for running.
TWA 130-160 degrees, AWA of 90-145°.
Foot Length 180% of SPL.
Mid girth 100% of foot or bigger if rule allows.

A3 - AP REACHING
FEATURES
A full sized reaching asymmetrical, best choice when adding an asymmetrical to an existing inventory.
As close to an all-purpose sail as possible.
Designed for the middle range of reaching angles in moderate breeze. As a full-sized sail, it is capable of working effectively at broader angles.
