Not all wave sails are the same.
Some have more foot, more twist,and more stable draft, while other's tend to flip easily and power up at the lighter end of windrange of what it's size might indicate.

^^^ Yes but none of them have the supported leading edge of cams, they have less battens, they have less skin tension.... so its a damn good speed on even the most 'rigid' wave sail.
But this is Point7's 4 batten more neutral one, not their power wave or their crossover so your comments are even less valid. You may have a point if it was their crossover as then its not a "wave" sail and getting more toward freeride. But it ain't.
Why do u have to knock everything lee?

Yeah, imagine the speed he'd attain with a different model wave sail.

So you're implying in your first comment that his speed is due to this being a particularly fast, or more stable, wave sail than most.

And in your second, presuming it is indeed sarcasm.... you don't think a different wave sail could be faster

This is Twan Verseput ?

Do you reckon he tricked up his sail ? (eg: stronger battens ?).
