From the designer...
Being immersed in nature´s finest wind playground is this designer`s fantastic office... my work is my passion; cutting edge performance in all conditions...
feeling it!
Design quality is critical to performance. Windsurfing conditions are endlessly dynamic. Design quality is not specialization, design quality is range expansion.

The new 2004 Loft designs produce unlimited windsurfing performance in the broadest range of windsurfing conditions.
The Loft is unmatched in design simplicity and efficiency.
Our elasticity and trim reactivity expand your performance...
touch it!

The Loft 2005... evolution
The Lip and O2 2005 sail lines have been finalized. Many new items have been applied to our successful designs. Reduction in sail weight has been a top priority for 2005, and the results are stunning. An average of ½ kilo of weight has been taken from all 2005 sails; The Loft sails 2005 are among the very lightest sails available.

I was originally asked to judge the event but minutes before we started, the thought of missing out on the windiest Gorge Games to date was unbearable and I had to entertain my competitive spirit... The finals in the Masters was perfect with 20+ mph winds and my 4.3 Loft tuned and on fire...

TRIM... new reference for soft vs. hard trim
Setting ALL windsurfing rigs with the correct downhaul and outhaul tensions is critical to get the best performance from the rig. Many, many windsurfers undertrim, even experienced windsurfers often trim too soft after time away from the water.

Planchemag: The Loft Sails LIP Wave 5.2 - TURBO WAVE
Excellent test results for The Loft Sails LIP Wave 5.2 by Planchemag: "Designed by Monty Spindler in Tarifa, the Lip Wave is a rather collected sail that is characterized by the quality of the materials and reinforcements employed. Indeed, one notes only 40% of monofilm on the body of the sail, the remainder is in X-Ply on the foot, the leech and at the head of the sail.
