The windsurfing history

We have found this nice video about the beggining of windsurfing and its evolution. Do you remember wood booms? Do you know why footstraps were created in the beggining?

Loft Sails is happy to announce Patrik Diethelm (ITA 120) as a new International Team member for the next racing season, joining forces with the rest of our International Team.

Streamlined: carbon extension prototype

A few days ago we received a carbon extension prototype from Streamlined USA. After we got green light from them we publish a few photos… we cannot transmit with them the extreme lightness of the piece. Stop by the shop and check out by yourself.

Cutre Windsurf Center is in conjunction with HT Maui testing center for Streamlined USA equipment. We are the only ones to receive these prototypes for their final testing prior to market launch of the 2012 line of products. As soon as we have conditions we will test this extension to the limit.

  • Secret: The 2012 final model has a surprise which does not appear in the photo, as the manufacturer wants to keep it confidential until de last minute to avoid other brands from copying.

Forward loop simulator

Loop_simulator

Interesting, isn't it? We watched it on Sylt. But, as it will be quite difficult to get one, come to Cutre and you will learn step by step how to do it. We first record you, then we explain the manouvre step by step. Afterwards we go together on the water and we practice together until you get it.

Still no wrinkles...

Gopr0263

Here's a picture we took the other day at Bahía de Formas of a forward loop by Juan Enrique Ureña riding the F2 Barracuda Quad 92L and a LoftSails Lipwave... we continue to be stoked with the dynamic performace and design of the sail... which shows zero wrinkles... does your sail show wrinkles while sailing?
