Technology of construction:
- New SPS: the inflating valve has been redesigned and is now completely moulded inside the PU tube, underneath the Dacron layer. A stronger, more durable and lighter inflating valve for the single pump system that improves quick inflating and durability!
- HiRes- Ri-Ri zipper. An industry excellence also used on America's cup sail bags. The zipper is their patented system for increasing/decreasing the leech tension, resulting in more or less power/hangtime.
- Insignia leech. Our classic exclusive standard reinforced leech that improves resistance and reduces fluttering.
- PVC labels on strut ends: in order to prevent abrasion on the strut end and increase the finishing effect of a hi-performance.
Metallic PU reinf. : a thin layer of PU with metallic interior is used to improve durability of the strut end.
