The Ezzy Free(ride)3 blends supreme sail performance with Technora® sailcloth.
The dark panel on the Free(ride)3 consists of Technora® fibers. Technora® is a para-aramid fiber that weight for weight is 8 times stronger than steel and 3 times stronger than nylon and Dacron®. Since Technora® is so light, we are able to save considerable weight in the sail. Furthermore, the low stretch of Technora® means less stretch distortion along the leech when a gust hits, producing a more stable feeling sail.
How does the Free(ride)3 compare to our previous Freeride?
- The new Free(ride)3 points significantly higher and has a much greater reaching angle.
- Higher wind range. You can comfortably sail the new Freeride one square meter bigger and one square meter smaller.
- Lighter and much easier to handle.
Other key features:
- Contains no monofilm.
- Body panels made with Spectra X Ply.
- RBS epoxy battens.
- Vinyl window. Removable triple block tack pulley with D-ring option.
- Color coded outhaul and downhaul rigging indicators.
- Every sail is rigged and checked in our factory.
