STRAIGHT PROFILED FOUR-BATTEN CONSTRUCTION TO WIN TITLES.
Freestylers, this is your non-compromise to go extreme! Yentel Caers has travelled the main freestyle spots bringing this discipline to the next level. Our Slash has brought him to win the PWA & EFPT world titles. If you are tired of single moves, get the Slash to go beyond!
DESIGNED FOR
Freestylers, this is your non-compromise sail to go extreme! Travelled the main freestyle spots of extreme tours bringing the development of this sail to win the PWA & EFPT world titles.
THE TESTS ON MAGAZINES SAY
The freestyle sail which has no limits, and no wind range limits.
ITS CHARACTER
The sail is a powerful toy, with fast acceleration to allow moves in shorter spaces, power in lighter winds and higher stability in stronger winds. Lots of Pop! Stability all around its structure. In a double move sequence, it will not limit the power to the first move. Very pleasant to cruise and to get close to the freestyle world!
ON THE WATER
Super light in the hands with good power on the front hand to make you feel the extreme acceleration in no space. It delivers an exact profile spot to rely on and exercise all the moves around. It will allow to have power even to finish the second move. You will not need to use your own power and extra skill to finish the move. Easy and comfortable in all the conditions to allow the focus only on the best way to stand out! The new outline high aspect outline on the top increases it’s spinning speed, and the slightly wider base it’s power. Even when the power of the freestyle sail generally decreases its wind range, this is not the situation for the Slash.
COMPETITION RESULTS
Pwa world Champion. EFPT European Champion
DEVELOPED AND DESIGNED BY
The Point-7 Black Team. A team of professional sailors and designers who have proved themselves by designing the winning sail for the World Champion in the PWA Slalom World Tour. Now with their pro Freestylers Team, such as Taty Frans, Jacopo Testa, Marco Vinante, the Slash is continually under pressure to its development.
DEVELOPMENT TARGET
No gimmicks have been invented or stitched onto the sail. The team requested the most functional freestyle sail possible with a slashed down weight to have no restraints for pulling the fastest and highest double moves.
RIGGING
The Slash is straightforward to rig, requiring an easy amount of force to counter its luff curve to set the rotation of the profile according to each freestyler needs. Playing with the outhaul will boost up power or increase control but do give good outhaul tension. Tighten the bottom and top batten, but just remove wrinkles on the other battens, without over tensioning them.
