2010 Ezzy Wave Panthers

23rd Nov 2009 @ 09:42:53 AM

The Panther 2 keeps the same dimensions for 2010 as David has focused on design tweaks and innovation not revolution. However, as I am sure you are aware that David responds to feedback throughout the life cycle of a sail and so their will be subtle shaping changes in the sail for the 2010 to further improve its already strong virtues. David has also responded to your feedback on the boom cutout and added one more postion, it did have 5 and now it has 6. This higher position will benefit hugely those who are over 6’ 1’’ and those who favour high booms. The lowest position is not affected and so the sail is great for all sizes and statures and now even more so Here are the key features: Who is the Ezzy Panther 2 designed for? • Both men and women • Serious and recreational wave sailors • Flat water, bump’n’jump, and freestyle sailors What materials are used in the Panther? • Spectra-fiber X ply: tear resistant for the luff and window areas • High density Spectra-fiber X ply: puncture resistant for the foot and tack • Technora-fiber sail cloth: low stretch Technora fiber for the leech • Tri-Lite scrim sail cloth: lightweight and white for the upper-central area - NEW MATERIAL • Weft-stop sleeve cloth: tear and abrasion resistant for the sleeve • Vinyl window: guarantees perfect visibility for the life of the sail What makes the Panther Purr? • Huge wind range • Superb control • Stable draft • Light weight • Fits any mast • Very strong build • The finest materials in the world • Outhaul and downhaul tuning guides allow you quick and exact rigging • Every Wave Panther is rigged in our factory • Unmatched customer service Features of the new Tri - lite scrim material: 1) It is lighter. It weighs about 40% to 50% less than standard monofilm. 2) It has better UV resistance. The Tri-Lite has more yarns and less film which means it doesn't get "crispy" and brittle from excessive UV exposure. 3) It stretches a bit more. The Tri-Lite absorbs shocks traveling through the sail. This makes the sail feel smoother and less jerky. "Quality is our strength" Also read the fantastic 2009 panther test by BOARDSEEKER MAG
