NATURAL is dead – long live the NATURAL! The most versatile sail in our range was redesigned from scratch to provide a powerful and easily manageable allrounder for all those who don’t want to deal with techniques and trimming.
The new NATURAL hasn’t lost any of the positive properties of its predecessor and several-times test winner. On the contrary, its magnificent handling and balanced performance were improved and are now easier to unleash.
In the course of laborious tests, Kai Hopf developed a new sail layout that requires much less trimming know-how. This means less time and knowledge is required for the setup, and no permanent adjustments need to be made later!
The PROGRESSIVE.BATTEN.CONFIGURATION is still characteristic of the outstandingly balanced range of NATURAL.
As a result, the focus for sizes up to 6.6m2 is still on handling and pressure point stability, which explains why only 5 battens are installed. At 7.0m2 and above, the design focuses on planning and Kai Hopf once again concentrates on simple rig control and handling. Both versions offer excellent control, a high level of comfort, and plenty of planning power, creating the perfect synthesis of speed, acceleration, and handling. The new NATURAL will make windsurfing much less complicated, and for many the problem of choosing the right material will become obsolete.
