Loftsails have consistently been credited with broad wind ranges in magazine tests... the Lip Wave is The Loft’s hard-core wave design that excels in both onshore and sideshore conditions. How? Extreme trim-reactivity.

New profile updates have been cut into the Wave Lip 07: the upper sail body has been tuned for 07 with slightly firmer curve schedules. This refinement allows the application of slightly greater downhaul tensions, which take effective leech release further down the leech. You can feel the result: rigs that adapt to your riding style and your windsurfing conditions.

Hard-Core: The Lip 07 is engineered with:
-The Loft's integrated panel concept, monofilm-free.
-Kevlar-Xgrid foot and leech panels.
-Stepped x-ply application.
-Molded thermo-foam mast/board pad.
-Soft oversized molded soft pvc foot edge specific to the Wave Lip.
-New batten taper schedules.
-Updated graphics and new xply styles.
-Sensitip head batten system.
-Soft molded pvc foot edge and foot 2ply protectors.
-Oversized soft molded mast/board protector.
-Roll-up strap.

The Lip Wave has received critical acclaim in magazine tests…
The Lip is born in the wind and excels in the upper end… easy performance there to feel…

Magazine sail tests The Loft Lip Wave 2006

Planchemag Lip Wave 4.7 2006...
…this rather compact sail is most robust of the group and that which pushes finishing details further …it has a superb rotation of profile and is neutralized perfectly in surfing. The advantage: the wind can increase or decrease without destabilizing it. The Lip 4.7 does not unbalance… with electric acceleration… It is a sail that all the team loved. It is a sail that one completely forgets in navigation.
+: Wind range, performances, stability, nervousness and manoeuvres.
-: Nothing

Windsport Magazine Lip Wave 5.7 2006...
The Lip Wave Concept 5.7 is a user-friendly yet versatile sail. Not just limited to wave, everyone will have fun with this one …the 5.7 has a light, balanced feel and a good wind range as the top twists off nicely to big gusts… tunability both for draft height and wind range, so any size rider can tweak the Lip to feel right.
Ample durability comes from an all-grid construction, featuring a new xply mast panel for more stretch resistance and ultra-bombproof, Kevlar-reinforced foot panels.
