2012 Sailworks Retro

$629.00 — $829.00

For 15 years the Retro has set the benchmark for freeride sail performance. In 2011 we introduced the most significant overhaul to the Retro in 10 years: a new tri-radial panel layout; significant weight optimizing for a lighter, livelier feel; and more low end power. For 2012 we are consolidating those very successful improvements with a small collection of subtle refinements on targeted sizes.
The Retro sports a low center of effort, made possible by a smaller head, longer chord and deeper foot profile. Mitigating the longer chord length is a clew cutout for the boom, which reduces the actual boom length, lowers the swing weight of the rig and makes it possible to use a given boom on a larger size sail than was previously possible.
