Further evidence of Severne's Aussie designed world beating product


The S-1 comes across as robust, is well reinforced and it provides all features to be expected of a wave sail. This fine piece is garnished with a secret fabric material called e3 which is already on land an eye-catcher and it lets the sail feel very light during rigging

On Water: This Severne sail collects the highest marks. As the lightest sail of the group, with best on-off effect, lightest
maneuver handling and best level of control. [b]It advanced as one of the test riders favorites[/b], especially in rough and gusty side offshore
conditions with big waves. The soft sail provides a powerful profile when powered up yet de-powers again instantly atwill. Thus the Severne combines a very new mixture of power and control with a very light feel. Especially when riding down the waves, the S-1 feels like one size smaller.

You feel more connected, more like surfing without a sail. For good and very good wave sailors who prefer a somewhat softer profile, the S-1 is most likely to top their wish list.

The quite far forward located center of effort is not so accommodating amongst sailors with a powerful style who prefer a strong pull during their turns. All in all the sail requires a little more sensitiveness but it stays sufficiently neutral
even in lighter winds and sailing through the shore brake.

Summary: An extreme side shore sail that feels convincingly light in hand and yet has enough power for the North andBaltic Seas.
