Hyperlite? Is this an updated FoilGlide? With all the tariff bs here in the US, we haven't been seeing new gear very much.

I have a LoftSails SkyScape 8.0 from a few years back, 3 cam version, such a sweet sail, light, neutral, stable, big wind range
but the freeride foiling market is so tiny, it is discontinued, like Ezzy they have gone no cam crossover fin/foil
when the LoftSails dies, new Severne HyperLite is my choice - but have the 3cam FoilGlides in 7.0 and 6.0, and they work really well too

The sails appear to me to be a step between the HG race sails and the lighter weight Glide sails.
I have the 5.5 , 6.6 and 7.7 and they have been my consistent go to for just over a year here in Perth on the west coast of Oz.
They provide a very locked in and stable performance similar to the Race models with 4 cams, but are much lighter in the hand. The wind range is really awesome and they perform very similar to the HG race range where the "i should go back and rig down" feeling is only revisited after the session fatigue has set in post review of the track, wind speed and distance covered at the end of the session...

I have the 4m 3 cam Glides for the over 25kt days, and while it is a super fun sail, it does not have the same "locked in" confident feel of the Hyper Lites, and I'm convinced it is the build and shaping of the sail.

I've foiled many of the HG range 4 cam series sails and can't praise them enough. The Hypers have shown me clearly how the advancing design initiatives work to gain improvements an average sailor can take advantage of.
