RRD X-Wing Y27 2022 (Pure Race/Slalom)

THE ULTIMATE SLALOM SAIL FOR BOTH FIN AND FOIL
ADDED DRIVE AND HIGHER ASPECT RATIO IN THE LARGER SIZES
FOR RIDERS THAT WANT TO GO FAST AND WIN RACES

Firstly we flattened the entry into the sail
and moved the draft back a fraction to help keep the fin loaded at the lower end and when sailing tight to the wind.
We also modified the leech, tightening both the lower section and head, whilst opening the mid leech further.
The lower section helped to further increase the drive in the sail,
whilst the tighter head helped to keep the board under control in the most extreme gusts.
Opening the mid leech kept the top end control and speed that everyone loved.
In addition to this in the 2 new larger sizes 8.4 and 9.0, we drastically increased the aspect ratio,
shortening the boom and increasing the luff length.
This change was first tested purely for foiling, but we quickly found the benefits were huge even with a fin,
increasing both speed and control.
Overall the Y27 X-Wing offers big advances whether it’s the larger fin and foil hybrids or the smaller slalom/speed machines.
For riders that want to go fast and win races.
