MANIC - 2012

RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
Peter: “After extreme update last year where we adopted many of development details of the IQ, this year the main task was to fine tune each size to go into the detail.”The new panel layout optimally supports the design characteristics with the radial cut that evenly spreads the forces generated at tack and clew into the sail body. We redesigned and properly protected the bottom of the sail window, we increased the width of the leechpanel. The result is a light and convincing sail, even more durable than before  . The Dacron luff panel was maintained for a resilient and soft feel. The shape is kept in the front of the sail so will never loose control. The profile which is locked low in the sail combined with the perfect leech twist make the Manic smooth and easy even in the biggest waves and most extreme conditions.

ROSS WILLIAMS SAYS:
“The 2011 Manic has already convinced me completely. The new design and details make the sail easier to handle and at the same time it becomes more robust. I can hit the wave always 100% without thinking about any damages. Thanks Peter, I call that perfect precision work!”

BOTTOM LINE:
The Manic is a great sail for all conditions and all surfers. When it comes to performance in big waves, it is to a class by itself, a radical wave sail with absolutely neutral handling no matter what happens!
