For 2010 the 360 Free will be replaced by our new crossover sail line called Wavescape. Starting from the small sizes (wave orientied) via the medium sizes (freestyle and freemove) up to the big size 6.8 (free move-free ride oriented). One sail line for all conditions.

Loft Lip Wave 2010 (source Mr-Saxo.com) :



The Lip is hardcore regarding construction- full kevlar foot and leech panels, triple overlapping panels that form two integrated 2plys that radiate from the clew (http://www.loftsails.com/kam_pages/1/e/412.php). The Lip is slightly flatter in profile than the Wavescape, and includes our Sensitip.
The Wavescape is built without kevlar and has a singlar clew radial. It is lighter, and designed slightly fuller than the Lip.
In simple terms, the Lip is sideshore-optimized, the Wavescape onshore optimized. Both are designed to be trim-reactive. Both include our Adjustable Outhaul. The Loft AO is an extremely under-rated item! I always use it! Many slalom/freeride windsurfers are fully into it! Many wave guys do not- which I do not understand! It is as if they believe wind conditions do not change when on wave gear! The AO is the easiest way to EXPAND one`s wind range. YES, a visit to the beach to adjust the outhaul is an option- but most of us are too busy windsurfing to do that! The AO allows the rig to adapt! It makes trimming before you launch less critical, and it makes each session more fun!

The Loft 2010 Blades remain dedicated to rdm masts- as they are this year. Blades are designed specifically for rdms. Although this voids the warranty- should one rig their Blade on a sdm (if the cams are changed, and one takes extreme care (there are parameters specific to each mast type- which is why rigging with sdms voids the Blade warranty)), our tests have proven conclusively that Blades perform best on rdm masts. Blades are our dedicated high-end competition design, so we do not compromise!- Blades are rdm-specific!

The Loft 2010 Switchblades are designed with different parameters compared to our Blades, and include both rdm and sdm Tekcams in the sail bag- so that both rdm and sdm mast types are compatible.
The Loft 2010 Blade FRs (12.5, 11.8, 11.0) are also compatible with both rdms and sdms. All Blade FRs are 4-cam designs, they include 7 cams each- the lower 3 cams are sdms "out-of-the-bag", the 3 rdm cams are in the sail bag (the upper cam works with both mast types and is not changed).
Blade FRs are recommended to be used with Loft Team Edition rdm masts! On LTE rdms the Blade FRs work better, and are more friendly than when rigged on sdm masts. On our LTE rdms, the rotation ease must be experienced to be believed!
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9vb0p ... 7-rotation
The LTE masts are resistant! Sdms and their thin walls do not react well to cam pressure- sdms can de-form under high cam pressure, and so are much more likely to break compared to rdms.
Changing cams is easy- with our new 2010 Tekcam system no spacers are needed- just change the cams and the mast!

Switchblades and Blade FRS work better on rdms, but we have to install the sdm cams in the factory (not the recommended rdm cams) because the Tekcam rdm cam is longer than the Tekcam sdm cam; should a client rig their 2010 Switchblade or Blade FR with the rdm cams installed & sdm mast, there is an incompatiblility issue: way too much cam pressure on the mast!.
If one rigs with the sdm cams (shorter) and an rdm mast (reduced diameter), the cams are very free- which makes for a very soft situation, but not a risk for rig damage.

Our new 2010 Tekcam system is an industry first!: rdm/sdm mast interchangability, out-of-the-bag!
Tekcams are simple! There are some incredibly complicated and heavy cam systems on the market- prone to breaking.
Our new Tekcams, with our industry-first MCIs (Metallic Cam Interfaces), our exclusive Blade mast pocket technology, and our Kevlar Strip construction... combine to re-define cammed rigs! These items are real design features that arguably place The Loft at the leading edge of modern windsurfing rig design!

Good winds, Monty

Rha, je vais finir par craquer !
Surtout si ca permet d'économiser un mat au final !

Yapuka choisir: 7.8/6.3 (surfaces idéales sur mes flotteurs) voire 5.6 en sus ou 8.3/7.0 et l'o2 5.9 en renfort ????
