Freeride Sail Range 2023
Summer is just around the corner and so is the (long-awaited!) freeride season. That’s why we would like to present our complete NeilPryde freeride sail collection to you today: -
-
FUSIONSURF test winner 2023. Winner in the categories:
- gliding characteristics
- speed medium wind range
- riding stability
Sitting right between the Atlas and Ryde in our range, the Fusion offers excellent bump and jump performance for sailors looking for more power and flat-water performance than a dedicated wave sail but still enough maneuverability to be able to throw forward loops, back loops and gentle wave rides.Light and stable, the Fusion is also a quick no-cam freeride sail when paired with a faster freeride board.Sizes:4.5/5.0/5.5/6.0/6.5/7.0Board recommendation:Freestyle Wave and Magic RideRYDESURF Test Winner 2023.Top ratings in- planing
- speed lower to medium wind range
Our most user-friendly and affordable freeride sail. The Ryde offers fun windsurfing in its purest form. Quick to rig and light in the hands, it is a stable, smooth sail designed to build confidence in gybes, waterstarts and straight-line speed.Equally comfortable on fin or foil, the wide wind range and range of use will allow you to enjoy every session right from the word go.Also as Ryde HD: with more robust X-Ply sail material.Sizes:5.7/ 6.2/ 6.7/ 7.2/ 7.7Board recommendation:
Magic Ride and Super RideSPEEDSTERTop score in the SURF Test 2023 in the category- Topspeed
Slalom racing speed without the cams. Since its inception Speedster has always been a favourite no-cam, high performance freeride sail all around the world. It’s outline is based on our RS:Racing slalom sails and it features medium-strong luff curve for stability and maximum wind range.Easier to rig, waterstart and jibe than a pure slalom sail but almost as fast, you will leave your friends int heir tracks.Sizes:5.2/5.7/ 6.2/ 6.7/ 7.2/ 7.7/8.2Board recommendation:
Super Ride and Super SportV8SURF test winner 2021 & 2023.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 even the most advanced slalom sails.Perfectly suited for foil or fin.Sizes:5.7/ 6.2/ 6.7/ 7.2/ 7.7/8.2/8.7 / 9.4Board recommendation:
Super Sport & Slalom HydrofoilV8 FLIGHTOur dedicated foil free-race sail. Combining the ultimate foiling technology of our Flight EVO range with the ease of use of the V8, V8 Flight is the ultimate high performance free-race foil sail. Super-fast and stable, 4 sizes from 5qm to 8qm will give you the ability to outfly your friends in anything from 6-25 knots. A favourite sail in personal quivers and windsurf centers across the world.Sizes:4.8 / 5.7 / 6.6Board recommendation:Hydrofoil & Super SportFREE FLIGHTOur first dedicated foil freeride sail. Ultra-light weight, early flying. Optimum efficiency to get the most out of every foil session, allowing you to use the smallest sail possible. 4 battens and 1 mini cam (2 on the 6.6) make for the lightest possible feeling while maintaining stability. A short boom and tight leech get you flying as early as possible and feeling weightless over the foil.Sizes:5.0 / 6.0 / 7.0 / 8.0Board recommendation: FreeFoil & Freestyle Wave, Magic Ride & Super Ride ridden as foil boards. -
