Duotone EType 2019

The “E” stands for “electrifying”, “effective” and “easy to control”. E_TYPEs are exactly the kind of athletic freeride sails which make windsurfing so fascinating and uncomplicated: easy to rig up, set off and start into motion without any need for pumping. All E_TYPEs combine constantly accessible acceleration power with the playful handling of a no-cam sail. This is pure windsurfing, with lots of propulsion, speed AND special durability for experienced and athletic manoeuvres. Sail designer Kai Hopf: Just like our racing sails, the more defined profile at the top, the reduced loose leech and the increased mast torsion ensures greater planing power and a more stable profile. All these factors combine to create the fastest no-cam sail that we have ever built. Versatility is the greatest strength of the E_TYPE. The harmonious performance, easy handling and highly responsive riding feel create a great deal of confidence, increase control and make windsurfing a breeze. And it goes like the clappers as well – the E_TYPE is definitely our fastest DUOTONE no-cam sail. The E_TYPE in the NO COMPROMISE DESIGN has been developed to ensure top-end performance as well as a real boost when accelerating and planing. The stable draft position right at the front makes rig control much easier and the PROGRESSIVE BATTEN CONFIGURATION (number of battens depending on size) reduces weight. As a result, the no-cam E_TYPE is the perfect freeride sail for all water types and combines handling and easier rigging-up with vigorous performance and top speed. All E_TYPE sails are also available in the monofilm-free HD design. However, the extremely hard wearing mix of materials has its price, which we will of course make clear.
