Special features of DRS semi-radial model
Combination of radial and horizontal panels offers all the advantages of radial designs without loosing winning features of horizontal panel construction.
- The radial design in the bottom part helps to avoid deformation of the sail shape in the critical areas of major pressure. Carefully studied panel positioning assures the greater stability of the shape even in the hard wind conditions.
- Being more stable in the foot area the sail responds better to the regulation of the foot.
- Higher durability with a special dyneema pretensioning system in the top of the sail. This extra performance feature assures that the sail keeps it's shape under tension. In the long run, the sail, without this system creates a vibration that affects not only the aesthetics of the sail but also the performance.
