OVERVIEW

The X-Cross is most likely the most versatile sail on the market. From freeride blasting in flat water to busting airs in the waves of Australia, this sail can do it all. A 5-batten concept based on our successful 5Wave wave sail incorporates the newest ideas and tweaks from Diethelm and Fabio Canelle to become everyone's favorite. The small sizes are more maneuver-oriented, while the bigger sizes are designed to be perfect flatwater and bump-and-jump joy machines.

SPECS

This sail should be ready to join you in almost any conditions. Construction-wise, the X-Cross is a clever mix of our Wave and Freeride lines.The sail bottom part is made of the same 4 MIL x/scrim-ply material found on 4-Wave and 5-Wave, since this is the most critical area for impacts. The main window is a solid and thick 5 MIL monofilm which provides the best combination of visibility, impact resistance, and weight. For the top part of the sail, we chose a 4 MIL blue tinted monofilm, which is lighter and adds UV resistance where you don't need to see through.The luff panel is still made of soft Dacron (again, the same as our wave sails) that adds extra power to the sail when needed. As a further bonus, we chose a white 5 MIL x-ply and blue 2.5 MIL x/scrim-ply along the leech and top panel to add a touch of wear resistance to an area that is always Stressed while rigging and rolling the sail.

TRIM

The X-Cross can be rigged in many different ways: From baggy wave style to high-tension freeride with a more pronounced loose leech... Just take this sail wherever you like and adjust its trim accordingly.
