move to WA!
used a 4.4 (race sail) once in 4 years (last weekend funny enough)
i weigh 73kg's...

Don't worry Izaak, before you know it you'll be in your 20's and the need of a sub 5m sail will be a thing of the past

Can somebody knowledgeable comment on how much downhaul tension the new NP race sails require? Are theys still as bad as in the days of RS racing as documented by petermandk?
I'm used to maui sails TR's which require very low downhaul tension.
On another site, I read that the newest evo has been beefed up - have there been durability probs in the older evos?
I'm looking to buy a used evo I or II 8.6 via the mail, so I can't really get a firsthand perspective of the sail.
thanks!

yes the sizes haven't changed except the 5.5 is now called a 5.8 and the 6.2 is now a 6.4

Early Xmas for the local Pryde rider (NC5)

Try standing them up the other way , they will last longer.

Took the new 10.0 for a spin on the weekend.... Very pleased with how the new sail felt. Lots more upwind drive compared with my old RS6.

Exactly, he doesn't have to rinse them or whatsoever....
(not only is he the pryde rider, he's the starboard/pryde dealer...)

He tried the 7.0 this arvo :

That'd be like Viagra to you hey Izaak? Sweet mate .....very jealous.

Yep he's quite short, probably just under 1.70, check his size compared to A2

Didn't 2 Severnes get better 5 x 10's?
