OPTIMA

A must-have for all racers looking to achieve optimum performance and those trying to get the most out of their North Sail. A unique combination of design, materials, and technology, that maximizes on performance and durability. Go Beyond.

MDM - Medium Diameter Mast

To date, the windsurfing market has focused on 2 mast diameters: SDM for maximum performance and RDM for maximum durability. MDM sits in between the two worlds, getting the best of both, maximizing the benefits of modern carbon materials so that you can get maximum performance, with maximum durability.

Tow Preg

Tow-Preg lays a computer-controlled matrix of fibers around the mandrel, meaning all fibers are continuous over the length of the mast. Every fiber on every mast is identical and wall thickness is kept consistent. This results in a more constant, lighter, and faster response rate mast without any weaknesses or breaking points.

Variable Pitch

Speeding up or slowing down the rotation of the mandrel allows for variation in the angle of the fibers, without reducing fiber count. This precisely controls the bend curve, softness, and stiffness of the mast. The result is a super smooth bend curve that matches the design of the sail exactly. This process makes every mast a one-on-one replica of the original design, ensuring quality is always the standard.

Mushroom Sand Stopper

An oversized foam plug, mushroom style, is placed on the top of all mast bottom pieces and extensions, cleaning the sand from the top piece prior to inserting the bottom piece, and keeping the sand out during sailing. As a result, just like magic, you have a sand-free and frictionless connection between your rig components. Getting components blocked together due to sand is now a distant memory.
