How Does the Taka Depower So Easily?

The Taka uses 3 ¾ battens, and that partial batten above the boom is the key. It allows the sail to luff and go neutral instantly — switching from loaded power to flat and featherlight with a small change in sheeting.

This is what gives the Taka its dual personality: power when pumping onto a wave or into a jump, then instant neutrality when you release into a turn or rotation. The payoff is felt in more vertical bottom turns, softer backloop landings, and effortless freestyle-style rotations where the sail simply gets out of the way.

Lightweight Performance

The Taka is engineered with advanced laminates and composites derived from aerospace and defense-grade material technology. The result is a sail that is extremely light in the hands while still delivering full, uncompromised performance under load.

Hardcore Construction

Wave sailing demands durability. The Taka is built to handle daily abuse — from heavy surf to rock and reef impacts — using reinforcements and panel layouts designed specifically for high-stress wave environments. It’s lightweight, but not fragile.

Calibrated Rigging

When the wind is on, you want to rig fast and rig right. Every Taka is rigged, tensioned, and factory-calibrated before it leaves Ezzy Sails. The downhaul gauge at the tack lets you set the sail in seconds: just align the bottom of the mast with Max, Mid, Min 1, or Min 2 (for extra light winds). No guessing, no trial and error — just accurate tuning every session.
