2025 Duotone Warp_Foil 20.25
FOLLOWING UP ON THE COMPLETE REDESIGNED FROM 2024 FEATURING AN INCREASED LUFF CURVE AND REDUCED HEAD GEOMETRY FOR IMPROVED FLIGHT CONTROL AND WIND RANGE
The WARP_FOIL extends our PWA and IFCA fin slalom champion sail range. It’s a specific and highly advanced foil design suited for foil racers looking for something that complements the low-drag of the hydrofoil. Compared to traditional fin sailing you have approximately 70% lower drag on the foil. Therefore it requires a totally different sail design (profile, twist pattern, aspect ratio) to match the low-drag hydrofoils.
The design of the 20.24 represented a milestone, as we were able to massively improve the wind range (= improved average speed) and the flight control in the upper range (= improved V-Max). To achieve this we significantly increased the luff curve and reduced the head size. A shortened boom length and the incorporation of a massive double-foil sleeve size were further key design elements.
The WARP_FOIL 2024 concept was very well received, so we decided to build on its success with an evolved version. By updating the batten configuration to a stiffer setup, we’ve maintained the sail's incredible efficiency while enhancing control in stronger winds. This change is paired with a slightly flatter entry of the sail, which improves top speed across all sizes. Together, these updates make the WARP_FOIL an even better foil sail for 2025
In our eyes, the WARP_FOIL 20.25 redefines the benchmark of the control to performance to wind-range ratio. It’s purely designed to win low-drag hydrofoil races!
Attention: for maximum performance the WARP_FOIL is equipped with 4 carbon tube battens. These battens are stiffer but unfortunately also more fragile than glass tube battens. Therefore, they are excluded from our warranty!
Key Features:
INCREASED LUFF CURVE
Much increased wind range and more stable flight control in the top end
RADICAL HIGH ASPECT GEOMETRY
Radical high aspect geometry to increases the efficiency on the hydrofoil
MASSIVE DOUBLE FOIL SLEEVE
Tremendous improvement of the flying shape aerodynamics
FLAT ENTRY PROFILE
Reduces the aerodynamic drag to gain more speed, better acceleration plus more lift
HYPER CAM 2.0
Completely new and technically superior: the camber revolution with adjustable length - for optimised rotation and increased performance

ATTENTION: since the mast geometry and length (= stiffness) depend on the sail design, size and luff curve the sails will NOT work with any masts outside the recommendations!
