The LIFT Freerace is an entirely new category of sail design that combines a defined forward camber with low internal tension. Unlike ‘race’ foil sails which focus exclusively on upwind/downwind, the LIFT Freerace adds great reaching performance to the mix, making it far more versatile. The camber induced leading edge maintains an efficient low drag shape, while the reactive leech easily bleeds off excess power at speed for maximum control. The sail has plenty of power for early and easy launch onto the foils. Once in the air, it’s fast, efficient and easy to control. The large foot profile allows the gap to be closed, even in the more vertical foil stance, while the medium-width sleeve and hi-tech materials make it lightweight and easy-to-handle.]]> Specs

]]> Details

Single Luff Panel:The Ripper is designed with low internal tension, resulting in an extremely feel and improved low end. This is made possible by the use of a single Dacron luff panel which provides neutral shape through the transitions, but inflates with minimal wind pressure for early planing.

Light weight staggered windows: A new, much larger window design uses heavier film in the high impact lower aream and lighter film higher up to reduce weight while inceasing visibility.

All New Tack Fairing: This new design adds 360 degree protection at the base and an easy-to-use velcro closure while retaining the unique Naish “fold back” feature for quick, uncomplicated rigging.

Parallel Radial Panel Layout: a second structural seam radiating from the batten above the boom smooths out the critical lower leech area and adds strength witout increasing weight.

New Head Protector: In a continuing effort to make sure that every finish detail on Naish sails leads the industry, we have developed a new low profile head protector.
