North Ego 2011

With the aggressive EGO in 2009 we introduced an absolutely new concept in the wave sail area that can do far more than previous Wave sails: It dares to look into the future and is always ahead of its time. And precisely this also applies to the EGO 2011, the ultimate sail for innovative wave rider - evolution never stops!
The EGO heralded the era of the Concept Wave Sails - as innovators, which is built with exceptional materials and shows the latest trends in sail design. Also for 2011 Kai Hopf has consistently complied with the requirement and has improved the performance, details and especially the handling of the new EGO. Yet despite our passion for innovation, we are true to our motto „innovation follows function“.
Kai Hopf developed the BALANCED.LUFF.LENGTH, a precisely balanced ratio of luff length to boom length. As short and compact as possible for radical handling and as long as necessary for a decent twist, and ensuring maximum wind range. In order to achieve sensible sizes, Kai uses the proven NORTH SAILS CROSS.BATTEN.CONCEPT in combination with the CUTAWAY.CLEW, that’s reaped real benefits in handling. In addition the optimized luff curve and sail foil tension as well as the new batten profiles make the EGO feel much lighter in your hands.
IMPORTANT: the EGO is our first sail exclusively designed for RDM masts due to its special elastic characteristics. The smaller mast diameter perfectly matches this softer feeling sail and shorter luff.

North Ice 2011

The radical look of the new ICE reveals that there was done a lot of development work, which turns into great performance. This World Cup wave sail has the potential to get the maximum out of any situation - even in very critical conditions!
Evolution is a constant process. Step by step, could even the ultimate can be improved. Therefore Kai Hopf looked into every detail of the ICE. From the refinement of the luff curve to the optimization of the sail foil tension up to new batten profiles - hardly a design feature was omitted. The results are impressive across the board: the 2011 ICE feels much lighter in your hands and is even more radical to direct!
In addition the key success factors of the ICE were sustained. E.g. the sensational handling as a result of the optimized foot geometry (especially when descending the wave), the impressive performance over a very wide wind range and the instantaneous reaction. Finally the iMODULAR.DESIGN’s optimized sail weight has a huge impact on handling.
Since the ICE was designed for all World Cup spots, it functions equally well from Ho’okipa to Sylt, to Gran Canaria or at your favorite spot.
All ICE sizes were designed for RDM masts, but are still compatible with SDM masts. That’s why the new ICE feels softer and can be easily controlled and pumped onto the plane. These abilities are also supported by the modified luff curve and the optimized leech tension.

North Duke 2011

2011 the evolution of the DUKE takes a giant step! The latest generation takes you to the next level - with a carefully optimized luff curve, modified sail foil tension and optimized batten profiles. Thus, the new Duke is even lighter in the hand and allows you more flexibility than ever for your very own style and focus on the essentials. And very important: Although all DUKE develop maximum performance on RDM masts, they are still 100% compatible with conventional SDM masts!
No other sail can covers such an extremely wide range from Wave to flatwater Freestyle as perfectly as the DUKE. This rule applies for years, and the optimized 2011 model more than ever is like a chameleon that adapts to its environment almost automatically. To enable this broad range of use, the whole team was involved. Only this way it’s guaranteed that the Duke will meet all requirements in all conditions.
The requirements for a Power Wave sails and a Freestyle sail are very similar: great planing potential combined with maximum handling and good controllability. Up to 5.4m2, the DUKE therefore has been designed as a powerful Wave sail. Not only because of the effective TWIN.TRIM.CLEW it has the greatest trimming versatility of all our Wave sails and the DUKE can easily be controlled by medium-weight riders too.
For sizes 5.9m² and above, Kai Hopf improved the new DUKE strictly according to the specifications of our Triple Freestyle World Champion Jose “Gollito” Perez, and EFPT Champion Andre Paskowski. 5 battens, the HYPER.LEECH II and the unique foot geometry improve the handling especially during difficult Freestyle tricks.

North Ice 2010

A World Cup Wave sail must have the potential to get the maximum out of every situation, because only victory counts. This is why the new ICE works even under the widest range of conditions, developing maximum performance under critical circumstances. This has been mainly achieved through the optimized foot geometry, a slightly set back centre of effort, and a reduced sail foil tension.
Extremely aggressive and - thanks to the optimized foot profile - a true handling miracle, especially when descending the wave: this is how our team describes this radical 5-batten power engine. Everyone has been impressed by the performance and the lightning-fast reaction of the ICE, which is totally independent from one’s own body weight.
NEW:
All ICE sizes were designed for RDM masts, but are still compatible with SDM masts. That’s why the new ICE feels softer and can be easily controlled and pumped onto the plane. These abilities are also supported by the modified luff curve and the optimized leech tension.
The iMODULAR.DESIGN ’s optimized sail weight continues to have a positive impact on handling. Since the ICE was designed for all World Cup spots, it functions equally well from Ho’okipa to Sylt, to Gran Canaria or at your favorite spot.

North Duke 2010

Very rarely so many physically different windsurfers became so intensively involved in the development of a single sail. This time heavyweights Jimmy Diaz and Kai Hopf put in their time as well as our flyweight freestylers Gollito, Brawzinho and André Paskowski. As a result we believe no other sail can cover the entire range from waves to flat water Freestyle as perfectly as the new DUKE.
The basic requirements for a Power Wave and a Freestyle sail are very similar: great planing potential combined with maximum handling and good controllability. The DUKE sizes up to 5.4m2, were designed as powerful Wave sails. By possessing the greatest trimming versatility of all our Wave sails, the DUKE ’s easily controlled by medium weight riders too. With the help of the brand new TWIN.TRIM.CLEW the variance of trim has improved again for 2010.
For sizes 5.9m2 and above, Kai Hopf improved the new DUKE strictly according to the specifications of our Double Freestyle World Champion Jose “Gollito” Estredo, Vice Freestyle World Champ Brawzinho and EFPT Champion André Paskowski. Already featuring 5 battens and HYPER.LEECH II it was the optimized foot geometry that really improved this season’s breakthrough in handling for modern Freestyle tricks. All DUKE models are made to suit SDM masts, which ideally fit this type of direct-feeling sail.

North Natural 2010

NATURAL – The most versatile sail of our program has been developed to deliver a high performing and easy to handle all-rounder to anyone who doesn’t want to deal with technical gimmicks and trim. The NATURAL has lost none of the positive abilities of its test-winning predecessors. In fact, the insane handling and the well-balanced performance have advanced significantly.
In the course of laborious tests, Kai Hopf developed a new sail layout that requires much less trimming know-how. This means less time and knowledge is required for the setup, without need for subsequent adjustments!
As a result, the focus for sizes up to 6.6m2 is still on handling and pressure point stability, which explains why only 5 battens are in place.
At 7.0m2 and above, the design focuses on planing power and Kai Hopf once again concentrated on simple rig control and handling characteristics. Both versions offer excellent control, a high level of comfort, and plenty of planing ability - the perfect synthesis of speed, acceleration, and handling.
The NATURAL will make windsurfing much less complicated, and we believe that for many sailors the problem of choosing the right equipment is almost obsolete.

North X-Type 2010

The ultimate NoCam performance sail. This fairly high-tension foil guarantees maximum performance without camber induced support. Compared to the previous model, it has improved planing without compromising control when over-powered. This added versatility combines spontaneous performance delivery with top speed, and offers all the handling and rigging advantages of a NoCam sail.
For you this means enormous thrust AND the ease of use of a NoCam sail for enjoying maneuvers.
The X_TYPE draws its potential from HYPER.LEECH II and TT.TOP II, which ensure a more active twist. In addition, it features a slightly lower profile for more low-down power, and a pressure point further at the front.
This facilitates rig control and steering, and significantly contributes to what is an unusually high stability pressure point for a NoCam sail. Thanks to the PROGRESSIVE.BATTEN.CONFIGURATION, all X_TYPE models feature batten numbers relevant to size and application, with Kai Hopf managing to perfect the 6.0 and 5.4 sizes with just 6 battens. This helps reduce weight and improves handling.
In sails starting at 6.6m2, the rig’s agility reaps a huge benefit from the CUTAWAY.CLEW outhaul, that allows for the use of a shorter boom while minimizing the rotation forces of the X_TYPE. What’s more the X_TYPE can be used with a single 460 mast - one mast fits all!

North X-Type 2010
North S-Type 2010

The S_TYPE is one of our most successful sails in all international magazine tests and is considered as THE reference in this class. Better than any other sail the S_TYPE combines acceleration with impressive performance and incredible speed without compromise to control or handling.
One can immediately feel that this sail incorporates not only all our experience from the NORTH SAILS racing range, but also the power and the latest features of the RAM F10. It‘s fascinating too that that the S_TY PE has gained functionality and is no even more suitable for a larger range of board types.
This is partly due to the familiar SWITCHABLE.CAM.OPTION allowing the sail to be ridden with either 3 or 2 cambers, and in particular to the CUTAWAY.CLEW outhaul that significantly improves handling thanks to a shorter boom and reduced rotation forces.
Another reason is the medium-size CONICAL.AERO.SLEEVE.DESIGN mast pocket. This represents the ideal compromise between optimum propulsion and comfortable waterstart behavior. Regardless whether at high speed or simply cruising and jibing, the S_TYPE has many faces - the perfect universal performer.
As to its durability: Apart from legendary features such as DOUBLE.SEAM and DURATECH.FOOT, we gave the CROSS.BATTEN additional seam protection to prevent chafing. Simply ingenious: All S_TYPE models work ideally with one mast length!

North RAM F10 2010

The RAM F10 is like the tough little brother of the World Cup WARP F2009! Even stronger, and with a special and user-friendly character it matches around 90% performance of the fastest WARP we’ve ever built. During its further development for 2010 two aspects were paramount: Improved handling and performance optimization through the entire range of use.
7 battens, a narrower mast sleeve and the reduced weight make the RAM F10 far less physical to handle than the WARP F2009. The brand-new INDEPENDENT.SHAPING.CONCEPT supports this concept decisively. Instead of just using one kind of shaping for the complete sail (sail body and mast sleeve), for the first time Kai’s worked with 2 separate 3-D profiles for the sail body and mast sleeve. The wind range has improved drastically by an impressive 25%.
Additionally the all-new TWIN.TRIM.CLEW lends further positive range of use. The secret of the TWIN.TRIM.CLEW lies with horizontally placed clew eyelets. The outer clew position provides more power and direct feeling, whilst the inner position lends superior control and a softer sensation.
As a bonus the RAM F10 is optionally usable with either 3 or 4 cambers for tuning towards either top-end performance or maneuverability. The TT.TOP, super stiff BOX.BATTEN and the wide and conical AERO.SLEEVE mast sleeve design features, boost lead the new RAM F10 to breathtaking top end speeds for both GPS and competition pilots. A missile of this caliber has never been so easy to use and is the secret to it’s success.
To demonstrate our confidence in the RAM F10 we’ve registered it for use one the 2010 PWA tour. Expect to see the effects of control and comfort on speed in the coming season!
