Experience SUP-Rigs

Construction:
* The sails are built specifically for day-in-day-out use over the season and will keep good shape to sell and recoup the initial investment
* ZERO monofilm - totally Dacron sail with PVC window to increase longevity, especially useful in high UV locations
* Blind-stitched foot area to increase the durability in this hard-wearing zone
* A mast foot protector to avoid abrasion
* Low batten protection strip to reduce wear on the sail
* Extra protection in foot thanks to a plastic reinforced webbing strip

Design features:
* High cut clew - this is an especially a good feature on small sail sizes, because the pressure point can move further back when tacking large (beginner) boards
* Option of rigging without battens touching the mast
* Compact mast sleeve for easier uphauling
* Lower number of battens on the smallest sizes (1.5 / 2.5) and aluminium masts for significant weight reduction.
* Sizes 3.5 / 4.5 / 5.5 with 4 batten, with RDM masts custom sized for each sail for ultimate stability and durability in stronger wind
* Fixed top for weigh reduction and extra protection
* All sails come equipped with adjustable booms for precise rigging
* Boom grips have different colors on each side (one side the color of the sail, the other black) so it's easy for instructors to communicate to students when they are on the 'wrong' side of the sail
* Each sail size has a unique color to aid quick assessment of what equipment you have on the water
* All sails are cut so that a fair amount of downhaul tension is required, as it's important to keep the leech tight in higher winds. Many (cheap) alternatives have an open leech that prevents early planing
* All parts are packed in one compact bag - a complete rig pack consisting of sail, mast, boom, mastfoot, uphaul and batten tensioner
