DESCRIPTION
The new SUPER_HERO remains the ultimate World Cup Wave sail and works optimally in all wave conditions. It’s unrivaled neutral feeling in the hands as well as stability and control in every situation makes it the favorite sail of PWA Wave triple world champion, Victor Fernandez.
It rides smoothly, is as responsive as a 3-batten sail in drift and go conditions and has real bite at the decisive moment. It is direct when pumping, planes early, develops real drive on the wave, is stable and offers a special neutrality for superior control thanks to its centered draft position. The SUPER_HERO is well known for its durability, which is maintained in the new version, despite the noticeable weight reduction. Unlike other brands, the thickness of the fabric and film used has not been reduced to achieve this – why they call it the LIGHT DONE RIGHT CONSTRUCTION.
The batten rotation remains buttery smooth even with minimal clew tension and the top works very actively to swallow hard gusts and support acceleration. Therefore, you can confidently choose a smaller sail size than many other wave sails.
