Performance Carbon Boom
640 USD – 840 USDPrice range: 640 USD through 840 USD
The SX8 is a high-performance pre-preg carbon boom that brings many of the standout features from our top-tier SX10—at a more accessible price point. Built using a standard grade of pre-preg carbon, the SX8 features a full carbon monocoque body and tail extension, delivering a ride that is stiff, lightweight, and extremely durable.
The latest generation of the SX8 is now equipped with a wider tail end on the Wave and Freewave sizes. The wider tail allows you to rig your sail with more depth without the boom arms interfering with the sail profile, which:
Improves power delivery
Creates a more efficient twist
Promotes ideal rig dynamics
Whether you’re chasing early planing or sailing fully powered, the wider tail allows your rig to breathe freely and perform at its best.

THE BOOM HEAD
The Simmer boom head is designed for maximum grip on the mast. Its high-friction contact surface ensures the boom stays firmly in place, even during hard landings. A robust rope hook provides superb stability, while the boom lever allows you to effortlessly apply tension and secure the boom in the correct position.
All SX8 booms include an integrated shim, making them compatible with both SDM and RDM masts.
