The Loft's top priority is windsurfing performance. The Loft's philosophy is to maximize wind range while minimizing the number of sail lines presented to the market... function over fashion, efficient simplicity.

The Loft Tested
WIND FRANCE | 05 Freeride test issue/O2 Freeride 6.6 “Concerning construction, in addition to the strongest proportion of monofilm X-ply, it is necessary to underline the excellence and the quality of the reinforcements at all the levels. Solid!” ”…one appreciates simultaneously the smoothness of piloting and the degree of acceleration.” ”Loft Sails positions at the top or in second position in each one of our criteria of test, which shows the O2s high degree of versatility. ”…is forgotten completely in the arms thanks to total neutrality and an excellent work of the tip (this is its secret!). For the second consecutive year, the O2 brings a fresh air in this group by its pleasantness of control and its total freedom in the hands.”
WINDSPORT NORTH AMERICA | 05 Freeride test issue/O2 Freeride 5.9 ”The combination of easy planning, easy handling, range, stability, speed and maneuverability left the O2 with limited company.” ”The O2 5.9 is one of those few sails you can trim for tweaked power or just hook in and go. Tuning does tons for that feeling and boosts the upper and lower wind range.” ”The Loft again shows high-quality construction & refined finishing with a packed list of features and robust materials.” “…clean and effective power for any freerider.
