NeilPryde Carbon Pro 25
The NeilPryde Carbon Pro 25 updates the aesthetics and engineering of the popular X-CS, while maintaining the concept of a super slim monocoque carbon wave/freeride boom for expert riders who demand absolute precision from their rig.
It is one of the lightest and thinnest booms in the NeilPryde range: the 25mm diameter minimizes hand and forearm fatigue, while offering high torsional rigidity and a squared tail profile to eliminate flex and lag.
Main strengths
- High performance full carbon pre-preg wave/freeride monocoque boom.
- Super slim 25 mm diameter for maximum lightness and reduced grip, ideal for small hands or for those seeking maximum comfort.
- Increased torsional stiffness and a squared tail profile to eliminate flex lag and ensure immediate control.
- VT Joint with dedicated mast cup for solid and precise connection to the shaft.
- Loop-to-hook system for the clew with high-sliding Dyneema lines.
Technologies and construction details
VT Joint
The VT Joint increases the contact area between the boom bow block and the mast, reducing the risk of point loads and minimizing play in the connection. It is compatible with any standard SDM mast and allows for quick and precise boom height adjustments while maintaining very direct power transfer.
Forged Carbon Mast Cup
The mast cup ensures two points of contact between the cup and the shaft, creating a very tight connection for excellent power transmission. The V-profile accommodates normal variations in mast diameter: slightly thinner masts fit deeper into the V, wider ones sit further out, always maintaining a clean, stable connection.
Loop-to-Hook Outhaul System
The “loop-to-hook” clew system eliminates crossing lines and ensures very low friction, leaving the sail free to move without impediment. It is paired with high quality Dyneema lines and an integrated lever on the boom, for quick rigging and derigging.
Trim-Pin Lever Design
The Trim-Pin system features double inserts with an easy-to-use lock/open lever, making it easy to adjust the boom length. This solution ensures optimal load distribution and a rigid connection between the boom body and the tail end.
Integrated Boom Lever
The integrated boom lever is designed with a small surface area and reduced weight, making it easy to close and open on the mast.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the Carbon Pro 25 designed for?
The Carbon Pro 25 is ideal for advanced and expert windsurfers who want a super light, small diameter wave/freeride boom to reduce fatigue and achieve maximum feel on the sail.
What is the main difference compared to the Carbon Pro 27?
The Carbon Pro 25 uses a much thinner diameter (25mm) and is lighter, while the Carbon Pro 27 has a thicker grip and offers an even stiffer and more solid feel between your hands and the sail.
Is it compatible with RDM trees?
Yes, in the “Carbon Boom Comparison” table it says RDM/SDM shim “Yes”, so the boom can be used with both SDM and RDM masts via the appropriate shim/adapter.
Does it have built-in pulleys for adjustable outhaul?
No, the Carbon Pro 25 does not have integrated pulleys for the adjustable outhaul; it uses a loop-to-hook system with high-quality Dyneema lines.
Which size should I choose between 140-190 and 150-200?
The 140-190 size is ideal for smaller, wave and freeride sails in stronger winds, while the 150-200 is more suitable for larger freeride/freerace sails and for those who want a wider range of length adjustment.
