Key Performance Advantages
- Premium low-elongation materials – immediate responsiveness and minimal profile deformation
- Effortless performance – smooth power delivery, lightweight and perfectly balanced sail
- Reinforced details – greater durability and consistent performance over time
Description
The Blacktip Pro 26/27 is a high-performance wave sail designed for riders looking for instant response, total control, and an extremely wide wind range. Every detail is designed to offer a direct feel in the hands, with manageable power even in overpowered conditions.
Panel Layout – Load Alignment
The panel layout strictly follows the actual sail loads for each size. This "form follows function" approach guarantees concrete benefits on the water:
- Rapid power transition – accelerate and depower naturally
- Huge wind range – total control in both light wind and overpower
- Instant maneuverability – immediate response and explosive rotations when maneuvering
New Material – VX-Ply
The new VX-Ply dramatically reduces deformation compared to the previous Q-Ply. Vertical elongation is reduced by more than 20% in high-load areas, while the 30% increased thickness significantly improves durability.
The result is a more responsive sail, with a wider wind range and superior resistance to intensive use.
Durable Foot Panel
Lightweight yet extremely strong 4 MIL Bi-Ply base panel with VX-Ply reinforcements along the leech for added structural strength.
Overlapping VX-Ply Clew Patches
Overlapping VX-Ply reinforcements in the cleat area to improve tension management and increase durability in the most stressed areas.
Blacktip Pro vs Team Carbon
- Increased luff curve for superior stability
- VX-Ply in the leech for smoother twist
- Greater distance between the two lower battens for passive early planing
- New materials for improved durability
- Slightly more powerful than the Team Carbon
