North FREESPEED3Di Sail

3Di Molded Technology

Molding the sails in 3D determines the shape. This means we can add unlimited shaping or twist in the sails without being limited to batten position. 3Di skins can transition seamlessly from thicker parts, to hold tension and resist impact, to other areas in the sails which are thinner, lighter, and softer. 3Di Molding provides unlimited precision in sail making, unmatched in the world of windsurfing.

Design Profile

With an outline, design and twist profiles inspired directly by our Racing sail, this sail has the added focus of accessibility and handling. Using the full benefits of 3Di shaping we are able to build impressive stability, acceleration and drive in a no-cam sail. A super light physical weight, combined with a low centre of gravity, completely revolutionize your experience on the water. A 6.8 tips the scales at only 3.6 kg ! The sail's accelerator is nicely centered in the sail give you the best balance between planing, handling and top end performance. The sail accelerates to top speed, and drives up wind, at the flick of your wrist. Planing performance, for the fin. A no-cam set-up makes transition a breeze, and rigging is super quick and simple. All sizes designed around a 6 batten configuration.

3Di Dyneema Aramid Tape Material with a Dyneema Aramid Helix SL load path

The best sails are made with a carefully engineered blend of the best performing materials. That’s why 3Di sails are composed of Dyneema Aramid. Dyneema is up to 15 times more resistant than steel. It has very high energy absorption and very low stretch. It is extremely resistant to abrasion, humidity, and UV. Aramid is what holds all the Dyneema fibers together. The end result is a composite sail that can be 3D precision molded from 1 piece without a monofilm*. It's very strong and has a very direct feel. The Dyneema Aramid Helix SL load path, running from tack to head, gives the sail more dynamic stability. It translates the wind instantly into forward drive at the flick of your wrist. (*except the window).

Integrated Material Reinforcements

3Di's composite materials are layered onto the sail in tapes that are crosslinked and thermoformed together into a 1 piece composite sail. These tapes are both positioned in any orientation that you need and layered into reinforced loads where required. This is done with no panels and no stitching. At the end of the day, the sail transitions seamlessly at microscopic levels. From a strong sail in the high-wear lower foot and clew areas to a light upper sail where the sail needs to breathe and twist. Precision use of the right quantity of materials in the right orientation results in a sail that is significantly lighter and stronger than any other windsurf sail.

Integrated Batten Pockets

In between the sail's layers, we use a special material, machine laid, to create the batten pocket. No seams, no panels to join, no stitching. The material bonds to the sail body but doesn't bond to itself. This leaves the sail with a 100% seamless and continuous fiber layout, a fully integrated tunnel with space for the battens. Complex material technology with a smart result.
