The other bloke doesn't seem convinced.

Sean on Point 7???

VMG Blades?
Im not sure if your referring to the sail in the picture,

But im certain u will find that the sail in the picture is a Point-7 AC-1 LTD.

I have a Point-7 AC-2. its good

Those black sails definelty stand out but the outline looks the same as the Pryde racing sail.Wow i could make 4 speed fins out of one of those racing fins.

The sailmaker for Point 7 used to work at Neil Pryde thats why they look the same as RS Racing 07 - 08.

Ok that makes perfect sense now thanks for the info.

Good luck Sean,and Chris

Because the water is like a mirror.......

Thousands of people on the beach, and aerobics on the main stage, a world apart from events in OZ

Actually I was just talking to a very tall Dutch F2/Maui racer......

AP came down, mad rigging frenzy. My tactical slow rigging meant that the AP went back up before I got any gear wet.

regardless of how it might perform, that's a great looking sail imo

Hey MK, those things are MEGA expensive so I doubt whether anyone would be willing to take the punt on being a distributor. I think their website has prices in Euros.....coupled with freight costs....I hope you own an oil well.

Point 7. Board Crazy Belmont NSW

That is a killer design! I like

Sails are a bit different to boards, there's no foam in them and pressure so a sail isn't going to 'explode' in the sun.

The P7's use a slightly thicker monofilm which will be more resistant to heat damage as well as creasing etc from rigging; they are also the only 100% UV sail on the market as the orange film on the window is fully 100% UV resistant monofilm.

Sure, black sails are going to get much hotter in the sun than white, but the problem is more to do with the masts breaking than the sails getting damaged. For the record I left all my sails fully downhauled in the sun all day at the AllegroCup last week and never had a problem; while I sat and watched other guys break masts left right and centre.

If the masts are good (like the P7 ones are) then you should have no problems, even in Aus.

Hey Guys,
Just a quick note to let you know that our first shipment of Point-7 sails will be here in house this Thursday. It's a smaller sample shipment of AC-1's. Will have them at Marmong this Saturday.
Stock of AC-0, AC-2 and wave sails will be here during September.
This new project is putting some spark into this old sailor and I look forward to windsurfing racing once again.....
P-7 enquiries are most welcome.
