Introduction The RS:Slalom embodies the latest in high-end technology aimed at experienced sailors looking to maximise what they can achieve when slalom and speed sailing. Whether racing around a course or clocking new achievements on the gps, the MKIV provides an unfair advantage!
Technical Information The RS:Slalom uses a powerful yet compact outline shape to keep the main proportion of the sail low where it is easiest for the rider to control. All sizes in the range now utilise 3 Ultra Cams and 7 battens (plus flexhead) to provide full profile stability and to deliver maximum drive.
New for the MKIV series is the Integrated Compact Clew feature - this has greatly improved the handling ability and wind range. These new sails not only power-up sooner, they also remain more comfortable when driven at the top end of the range as the shaping and twist is much more controlled.
Overview For capable users who always sail completely on the power and demand the highest level of speed and top-end wind range, the RS:Slalom offers the perfect solution for competitive or extreme recreational use.
Also Consider For high performance yet with easier handling and a less technical approach the Hydrogen is a great bet. Anyone with a world tour ability level may benefit from the slightly increased top end of the RS:Racing.
