Severne BLADE 026 – Control-Oriented Wave
More power. All the control. The Blade 026 offers the stability of a 5-batten sail without the classic weight compromise: advanced profiles that push forward, less backhand pressure, and “filtered” wind. The sail works, you just think about surfing.
Main news 026
- XR – Xtended Range : deeper profiles and higher head tension → more push at the bottom and control at the top.
- Fat Head : roach head that opens more under load → top-end control and extended range (fatter head on small sizes).
- DirectConnect : direct connection of load points to mast/battens/boom → zero lag, instant response.
- CarbonFusion “trickle-down” : panels welded to the foot and carbon load strips in head and tack (from BladePro to Blade).
- Gradient Panel Technology : Overlapping corners reduce weight, increase strength and control stretch.
- Materials : VX2 , SpiderFibre , eM4 , new D6 Dacron in the luff for smoother power delivery.
- Wave control-oriented sail for all conditions.
- 5 battens , 100% X-PLY, D6 Dacron luff panel for more progressive power.
- CarbonFusion foot panels (welded) and DirectConnect carbon load strips .
- Development with Scott McKercher and Philip Köster .

Technologies & Materials
- VX2 : Vertically oriented X-Ply, denser and lighter → less deformation, more stability.
- SpiderFibre : fibre network that distributes loads on the seams and in the sail body → fewer patches, more strength.
- eM4 : High load laminate (more X-Ply fibers and thicker film) in low impact areas.
- D6 Dacron (luff panel): More premium feel, progressive twist in gusts, superior shape retention.
- CarbonFusion (foot) : welded foot panels + carbon load transfer strips in head/tack.
- Gradient Panel Technology : overlapping panels, split-luff aligned to loads → less weight, more durability and stretch control.
