A real race sail for every level
Designed for: For those looking for an easier race cambered sail, with less ripping out power, especially for an easier handling. Less weight in the front of the sail to allow to contrast the power with less energy, Lighter to water start and jibe. You can finally keep top speed and performance for hours on the water, without having to use the energy of a full race sail.
Materials:
- X-ply alternate batten pockets for lighter weight and reflex. 7 tubular battens to follow the pure slalom foil profile from the sail. Each batten exactly copies the set-up of our AC-One racing sail.
- 4mil Anti UV X-ply laminate for high reactivity.
- Lower Dacron wide sleeve for extra power and comfort. Three cams for maximum drive.
- X-ply luff sleeve for fast reflex and firm stability.
- Anti-UV transparent grey window to have a 100% Anti UV-Monofilm sail.
- 5mil Anti UV- X-ply base panel for protection from accidents. All our Ply, X-ply, and Scrims monofilm are produced in the Unites States.
Sail Areas:
- One eyelet to make sure that the development of the S-shape and leach opening is controlled from the tension of the boom from the right spot.
- The sail will automatically self-adjust its power, thanks to the S-Shaping, along the whole middle upper leach opening to increase or decrease the venturi effect in the sail.
- Wide venturi effect leach opening for higher speeds downwind.
- Winglet for top close the gap effect.
- The center of effort is low, focused on the rider, allowing little technical input or energy expenditure to prolong drag-racing sessions
- The easy rotation of the sail will let you enjoy and execute perfect fast jibing without having to lose energy and power.
- Featuring a medium sized luff pocket, shallow profile, and a sweet smooth rotating 3-cam set-up to experience a light feel.
Its character: Take all the goodies from a full-on competition slalom sail, reduce its mast sleeve, and shallow a little the profile. This is the AC-K PRO. Featuring a medium sized luff pocket, a sweet smooth rotating 3-cam set-up combined with a lot of low-end power to get planing nice and early. The AC-K PRO is a high-speed powerhouse that is easy to handle and sits ridiculously light in your hands, keeping the board at a steady hover above the water to give you the best possible control and speed out of your kit. The AC-K PRO is an incredibly fast sail to use, flattering even the nervous rider with a blistering performance.
Early planning to overpowered conditions. Going fast was never so easy! Slicing through the air, it is effortless to cover ground on and whilst rapid on all points of sail, seemed to point beautifully close to the wind.
On the Water AC-K PRO : It’s not about freeriding, it’s nothing less than pure acceleration, speed, and control. This is what is experienced as soon as you close the gap of the AC-K PRO . The power is balanced between both arms and the sail keeps accelerating without having to pull or work with your arms. Just relax them and let your body weight sit comfortable on the balanced profile from the sail. The light feels and easy rotation of the sail, will let you enjoy and execute perfect fast jibing without having to lose energy and power. As the wind picks up the sail becomes lighter, more fun and will not demand to switch to a smaller sail so easily. The center of effort is low, focused on the rider and providing feedback through both hands. It is just so balanced and requires little technical input or energy expenditure from the pilot, enabling them to prolong their drag-racing sessions.
Developed and designed by: The Point-7 Black Team. A team of professional sailors and designers who have proved themselves by designing the winning PWA tittle sails in Slalom, Waves and Freestyle.
Development Target: Creating a race sail which would allow the rider to save more energy and spend more hours on the water. A full race sail has power which is only needed by heavy PWA riders to accelerate with loads of drive out of a jibe, or for full downwind courses, which are trajectories that are done only on some radical race PWA courses. The AC-K pro is a pure race sail to have fun, without going on too depowered simple 3 or 2 cam sails for free-racing.
Rigging: The AC-K PRO needs to have the mast inserted on top of the cams. After pulling downhaul to 15cm of its final setting you can either put on the boom, and later slide in the cams before putting the final downhaul on, or place the cams on with the right technique, pulling on the full downhaul, and later putting the boom on. You will find more instructions and video on the support section on our website. Playing with the outhaul will boost up power or increase control. Tighten the lower 2 battens and the top batten, but just remove wrinkles on the other battens, without overtightening them.
