Description

The Blade is the benchmark 5-batten wave sail. A perfect blend of power and control.

When you need dependable performance across a wide wind range you simply can’t beat the stability and control that 5 battens provide. Based on this fundamental we built the Blade to be the ultimate all-rounder wave sail.

• Increased skin tension stabilizes the profile for maximum wind range.
• Dacron luff panel maintains flex and soft feel.
• Control-oriented geometry positions the clew lower where it can be easily managed.

Constructed entirely out of premium X-Ply, the Blade is one of the most durable sails on the market, yet intelligent design means it’s also one of the lightest. SpiderFibre technology has radically reduced swing weight whilst also creating a much stronger clew. Dyneema window X-Ply allows for unrestricted vision. Upper panels in VX2 reduce swing weight. The new highly durable yet lightweight eM4 material is used in the high load foot area. Engineered for performance.

The Blade is the sail to choose for all-round high performance.

TECHNOLOGY

SEAMLESS HEAD PANEL This high abrasion area is made from only 1 panel and does not carry any exposed seams, preventing any potential weak point in this area. As a result, seam creep and seam-related failure have been eliminated.   SEAMLESS FOOT CONSTRUCTION A single panel in the foot area with hidden load patches and zero exposed stitching eliminates seam abrasion and seam creep in this high load area. Maximum durability and minimum weight.   3&4 ROLLER TACK PULLEY Roller tack pulleys are matched to the sails downhaul requirements and aligned for friction free downhauling and threading ease. Rig your sails with the Severne Hardware Division extensions for function and simplicity.	VX2 / MATERIAL VX2 is a vertically oriented X-Ply featuring increased fibre density for stability and control, reduced film thickness for less weight, and our proven scrim layer for dependable durability. The 2 signifies the film thickness in mil. / ADVANTAGES. VX2 laminate significantly reduces deformation in the sail compared to eM3 material. The vertical stretch has been reduced by more than 20% whilst the horizontal stretch characteristics have increased fractionally to enhance the elastic springy feel that has defined the SV wave sails. MORE STABLE. MORE DURABLE. LESS WEIGHT.
DOUBLE SEAMS All Severne wave sails have 25mm double stitched window seams. The wider, single colour seam tape ensures maximum tear strength and crash resistance MOLDED SOFT EDGE With recessed grooving, covering any vulnerable stitching the moulded soft edge encloses the hard edge long the foot of the sail and protects the stitching from wear along the board non-skid.	BOOM HEIGHT REFERENCE Boom height gauge for ease of reference. SPIDERFIBRE A web of fibreglass filament that disburses loads across seams and throughout the body of the sail. By using stronger, lighter fibres and reducing sail patching, we can measurably reduce weight and swing weigh and at the same time, increase strength. EM4 HIGH LOAD LAMINATE Based on the proven eM3 platform, the high load eM4 material features twice the amount of X-Ply fibre and increased film thickness to maximise durability. This new material allows weight reduction whilst maintaining puncture resistance and tear strength. Used in the lower impact zone in the sail.
THERMOFORMED TACK FAIRING Protects your board from impact and neatly covers the foot detailing. It incorporates the rope stash pocket for easy storage of your downhaul rope.
