Wide, Formula style windsurf boards are sweeping the planet. The
Formula D is HOT’s solution for exceptional performance.
This race-oriented sail is lightweight, stable, fast and controllable
in a wide range of conditions. A 2 cam sail in sizes 5.0 to 7.5
and 3 cam from 8.0 to 10.3 with a low-forward deep-draft foil
that maximizes control even in fully blazing wind conditions.
The X-Ply luff and unique batten
layout also helps keep the leading edge of the sail tight and
rigid further increasing the stability of this sail and decreasing
the swing weight. The Formula D’s head opens and twists
efficiently in light air. |
Its
lightweight also adds to early acceleration and a powerful ride
even in light winds. The low foot and high aspect outline is ideal
for closing the gap and riding the sail aft in the mast track
for minimal wetted surface. The mast sleeve has been cut smaller
for easy water starting and up hauling. The cams have been bolted
directly into the sail for the simplest rigging available. The
HOT cams will not slip off the mast when rigging…simply
thread the mast into the sleeve and onto the cams, down haul and
out haul and hit the water. The Formula D is designed for riders
of all levels that crave the thrill of high-speed control. |
