Windsurfing has ruled more than 1/2 my life. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about how it feels to fly across the water, fly through the air, or spin around in circles on my windsurf gear. So to help spread the stoke (and further give in to my addiction) I started this blog. I hope you find it entertaining and a place to go for some useful information.
I want your mast opinion. Are you still using. No limitz? I am on a flare and 14 and 15 freeks. I have a 370 gorilla. I have a 400 hot sails maui RDm. I think the curve configuration is not the best for the freeks. I am looking at a maui sails katana RDm, severne masts or no limitz. What do u think? Thanks
Use either the Severne or NoLimitz. Maui are more of a hard top. I know the new Maui masts are more of a constant curve than in the past but haven't tried any of the new Maui masts to try on the Severne) I couldn't find any sort of information as far as the specs for the Severne masts, so we got our hands on a Severne 400 90% RDM and 400cm 75% RDM and sent them over to NoLimitz for a bend test. The NoLimitz Sumo masts are pretty much dead on to the Severne RDM bend. I have Severne RDM 100% and NoLimitz Sumo masts. The sails handle pretty much the same with both masts with the only difference being that the Severne RDM 100s are significantly lighter than the NoLimitz. BUT, you'll never break a NolImitz and they cost MUCH less than a Severne RDM 100. So both will work, just figure out if you want a little cheaper and more durable with the NoLimitz, or ultimate performance with the Severne RDM 100s.
Those Freeks are incredible sails!!! I can't believe how light handling they are with the durability too!!!
Nice video!!
