TWIN CAM FREERACE
580 USD – 630 USD
The S Max is the ideal dual-purpose high-performance sail for both Freeracing and Wind Foiling. If you want to go fast, whether, on a foil or a fin, you need control. The S Max features superb stability that a cambered sail offers, a short boom for better control, and a forward-focused and powerful sail profile. The S Max offers quick and simple rigging, great low-end power, stability when under max power, and smooth camber rotation. Featuring the latest vertical shaping profile, and light-weight monofilm batten pockets. S Max offers race sail performance, but in a user-friendly and easy to handle twin cam, 6 batten configuration. The S Max rigs on both SDM and RDM masts for the ultimate in adaptability. Therefore the S Max comes standard with one extra camber, the TEKCAM Reduced which allows you to rig your S Max on an SDM as well as an RDM mast. To get ultimate performance from the S Max for foiling, rig with slightly less down to give the sail a tighter leach. This will create a more stable draft for foiling.

RDM vs. SDM
The bend curve of the SDM and RDMโs are compatible with one another, but the RDMโs are more durable, therefore more suitable for punishing wave conditions. SDMโs provide a faster reflex response, better stability, and faster acceleration, especially in lengths of 460 cm or longer, therefore more suitable for flatwater sailing in the larger sizes.
1 // Six Batten Layout
Great low-end power, stability when under max power.
2 // Deep locked in profile
The S-Max is the best for any rider looking for race-level performance with addictive acceleration in a user-friendly, twin-cam setup due to the powerful sail profile.
3 // Kevlar Stretch Control Tendons
Distributes the load throughout the surface of the sail. They control the breaking point for the twist and increase the wind range.
4 // Precision Tapered Battens
Precision Tapered Battens on the lower two battens. The taper is designed to push the sail profile forward and keep draft locked in for stability.
5 // Cutaway
The cutaway clew has an extremely positive influence on the sailโs agility and handling, and allows for a shorter, more rigid boom, as well as more direct acceleration.
6 // Twin Cam
The S Max features 2 x TekCam and a TekCam Reduced which allows you to use both SDM and RDMโs. This setup offers great stability, smooth camber rotation and easy rigging.
