QU4D SAIL

Description:

The Ultimate Compact Wave Sail for Jumping and Spinning

The QU4D is our compact 4-batten wave sail, especially well-suited for jumping and "spinning" wave sailing with extra-fast rotations. Features the exclusive Wave Vision window that is clear all the way to the mast. The experience of wave riding with virtually no visual restrictions. This feature lets you avoid looking through a "window," giving you a full visual range and making jibes and other maneuvers more effortless as you carve and turn through the waves.

Dual Clew Positions for Maximum Versatility

Incorporating a low clew option to improve down-the-line wave sailing, this allows the sail to mimic the KS3 boom angle, which allows you to get up and under the lip better than the high clew position. The upper clew position is better suited to extreme jumping and onshore sailing. Sailors who liked the QU4D but felt the KS3 was better down the line are now totally satisfied with QU4D in all conditions.

Built for Aerial Performance

It is a great choice for those who enjoy jumping as much as wave riding. This sail flies through the air with stunning stability and accuracy. The shorter luff lengths and boom lengths encourage fast rotations, too.

Super-Light Yet Super-Strong Construction

The QU4D features our super-light 2- and 4-mil laminates, combined with our new, very clear SlamLam® reinforced window, making this a super-strong wave sail that will take a pounding while remaining very light.

Optimized for Reduced Rig Weight

Designed to rig on short masts, the overall rig weight is reduced further. You will only need a 400 to rig the 6.0m through 5.2m, a 370 to rig the 5.0 m through 4.3 m, and a 340 for the smallest sizes.

Experience the perfect balance of wave riding and aerial performance—the QU4D – where compact design meets versatile dual-clew rigging and stunning jump stability.
