RS V5 CARBON

Product Details

Product Details

Designed as a dedicated slalom machine, the RS design undergoes constant development and fine-tuning by Partice and his test team, ensuring top-notch performance on the race course.

To maintain the racer's focus on maintaining speed throughout the course, subtle adjustments have been made to all outlines to enhance control even in rough conditions. Notably, the widest point of the board has been shifted closer to the nose while maintaining the same tail width. This refinement flattens the outline curve, significantly improving control on straight lines and allowing to approach gybes with greater speed.

The bottom shape features a mono concave beneath the nose that transitions into a consistent V shape from underneath the mast track to the back foot. This configuration aids in sustaining speed and direction even when facing challenging choppy conditions.

In the footstraps area, deck thickness has been reduced to re-balance front and back foot positions. With a new setup, the front foot will feel less "loose" in rough conditions. Alongside this, the slight increase in rail thickness in the nose area boosts the early planing capability of the RS design and improves control during gybes.

While these boards offer outstanding slalom performance, we have also incorporated Exocet's DNA by integrating DDSA (double-density shock absorbers), which provide much-needed comfort and control, vital elements for both PWA races and long-distance sailing.

Notably, the RS 58 boasts a distinct shape within the RS range, drawing inspiration from the renowned Exocet Turboboost 58. The hull plan has been thoughtfully reimagined and updated, involving adjustments to the outline and volume distribution. Tail cutouts have been omitted, prioritizing control over release during turbulent small sail heats. Overall, this board is an ideal choice for high-wind conditions, whether it's on flat water or in challenging environments, providing unparalleled comfort and confidence.
