The Loftsails BladeFR has a long and proven history in Formula racing: Dennis Littel's incredible ten successive titles, and Fernando Martinez's six Spanish Formula championships.
Features
& Benefits
- Internal vertical and horizontal Kevlar strip applications at cams – defines profile and augments stability
- Blade mast pocket construction features mast panel and 2 mil triax X-Ply mast pocket sides (3 layers) tensioned directly (all 3 layers under tack pulley webbings) – downhaul tension is equalized between the mast panel and the mast pocket resulting in the BladeFR’s firm, clean, easy-rotating leading edge
- Tubed battens with varying carbon content. Top 3 specialized 100% carbon tubes – carbon tubes are lightweight and deliver superior top-end stability
- Metallic Cam Interfaces – MCIs eliminate contact point degradation characteristic of cam designs without MCIs
- X-ply batten pockets that alternate sail sides - using similar material for the batten pocket as the body material minimises the asymmetric character of applied batten pockets. Pockets made with laminates allow the batten to be centred. These features combine to maintain rotation symmetry. In contrast, same-side dacron pockets promote asymmetrical rotation
- Neoprene boom cutout with dual zippers – the rig is streamlined for improved speeds
- 7 mil monofilm vertical internal panel (inside mast pocket) – profile stability
- Durable IYU250 4-part mast pocket – the perfect material between your mast and the elements
- Trim diamond - leech-release reference: dial into your sailing conditions
