NeilPryde V8 2024

Race sail performance without the encumberments of a pure slalom sail. 2 cams and a narrower luff sleeve make the V8 easier to rig, gybe and waterstart than a pure race sail. Don’t let the ease of use fool you though, V8 can hold its own around a race course and boasts even better early planning than the most advanced slalom sails. Perfectly suited for foil or fin.



Product highlights

Accessible performance

Top speed and acceleration will be close to that of the RS:Racing but rigging, gybing and water starting will be easier due to the twin cam setup, slightly reduced downhaul tension and the narrower luff sleeve

Fin or Foil

Equally at home on foil or fin, V8 will allow you to get the most out of every session, no matter where you are


Stability

Ultimate control and stability are provided by the 7 batten layout with 2 cams

Wind range

Thanks to wide range of trimming and super stable profile, V8 has a huge wind range


Features


  • Airflow tubular battens - Directly derived from slalom R&D, the airflow batten layout reduces drag and increases speed. Tubular battens offer light weight and optimum stability.
  • Internally printed - Sail body uses internally printed, laminated panels. Lightweight and durable.
  • Ultra clear window - Light weight and extra clear.
  • Double luff panel - Consisting of an overlaid monofilm panel and an X-Ply panel provide excellent stitch holding properties, for added strength in this extremely high-load area of the sail, and the responsive load distribution performance that using a single panel with no cross-stitching allows.
