POINT 7 SALT PRO WAVE 2019

POINT 7 SALT PRO WAVE 2019

Designed for: Hitting the waves at high speed to pull out new school aerial wave moves, whether you are jumping or going for aerials. The right mix between drive on the bottom turn, but at the same time a neutral on/off performance going for the cut back.

The tests on magazines say:  An efficient on/off profile designed to be radical on the wave. Its a versatile wave sail which can be used in all conditions by tightening or loosening the clew. One of the fastest, very good for high jumps and a very reactive.

Its character:  The Salt is the Point-7 all-out performance orientated four batten wave sail. Fast riding on the waves, quick to respond in new school wave sailing moves, and ultra-light in your hands. A pure new school wave sail! Regulate the back-hand power it’s ready to offer with precision; according to the wind strength, the board we use, and what we want to do. We can flatten the profile in Side-Shore conditions to neutralize the profile of the sail in high speed surf, which can give more power in the back hand to get more support in on shore conditions, or when you want quick acceleration to hit the lips of the waves.

Competition Results: The sail that has brought Ricardo Campello back on to the podium at the PWA in 2015. The sail that made Ricardo claim his first wave event victory at the PWA in La Torche. One of the most spectacular editions ever!

Developed and designed by: The Point-7 Black Team. A team of professional sailors and designers who have proved themselves by designing the winning sail for the World Champion in the PWA Slalom World Tour. Ricardo Campello, with his background of being Freestyle Champion and now winner of PWA events in the waves, has brought given feedback on the New SALT PRO, which is nothing more direct than being one of the newest school wave sails.

Development Target: The SALT has been part of a continuous evolution since it was first introduced. Each size is tested separately according to the designated wind intensity for which the sail is designed for. The individual changes on each size have been made very specifically to create the perfect sail range. Sail profile, rotation and twist was tuned on each size to make the sails feel more free, and lighter in the hands to allow the riders to focus on the real deal. Development was focused on making the sail more comfortable in heavier conditions, especially on the smaller sizes; a lighter feel whilst giving more control to the rider for that extra comfort.
