The Loft Technology
Breathing, trim-reactive designs.
Greater then the sum of the parts… the board, the rider and the rig become life-like. This is windsurfing at its best.
Designs from the Loft are alive; breathing, living performance available from the rig in all conditions. Forward sail profile orientation, high skin tension and a soft-twisting, exhausting leech work together to produce life-like rigs. That expand performance and wind range. Living, breathing designs are characterized by trim reactivity.
Soft trim raises the power center; powering-up the rig in light winds. Hard trim lowers the power center; streamlining the rig for strong winds.
Expanded
wind range made direct..
The Loft adjustable outhaul is easy. Compatible with all boom types. Included with every Loftsail.
Integrated Panel Concept.
IPC - The Loft’s simple, effective construction technique. At the sail corners, panels are overlapped creating radial extensions into the sail body. The Lip Wave clew is where this technique is most visible. The seams that extend into the sail body from the clew allow the 3 “boomzone” panels to each extend under the clew eyelet. This creates multiple two-plys that radiate into the sail body. 
Molded.
Thermo-foam mast/board pad with uphaul port, batten-tensioner key keeper, line pouch and roll-up strap.
Soft pvc foot edge & foot 2ply seam protectors.
Soft pvc batten pocket/boom protector applied to batten pocket crossing the boom (Blades only)
Stepped panels.
All Loftsails share the application of ultra-durable materials to the exterior and low, lighter materials to the interior and high. The result is improved durability with a lighter feeling.
Material quality.
From specialized mast pocket styles, state-of-the-art first-quality triaxial and bi-axial laminates, multi-sectioned batten systems with specific precision-ground tapers, scrim adhesive reinforcements and 5-layer glued seams, all Loftsails are produced with first-quality materials and construction techniques.
Sensitip*
The Loft’s Sensitip head batten design is a downhaul-activated tip system. The Sensitip rod is flexed as downhaul tension is applied. Stretch your feeling out and up at the tip! An improved head planform is possible with the Sensitip. The Sensitip is soft, stable and natural leech twist at the tip- expanding performance and wind range.

The Loft 2010 batten tensioners - dual side-loops that center & equalize batten tensioner load to the batten/batten pocket/sail body.
