THE MOST REWARDED AND MOST RECORD WINNING WINDSURFING SPEED RANGE ON THE MARKET.
OVERVIEW
In the past couple of years Speed Windsurfing had a big impact on windsurfing history. With the Luderitz canal in Namibia, the overall speed times went up by about 5 knots. In one of the record attempts, Patrik Diethelm scored the best result of the event with a time of 51.18 Knots.
Even though he didn’t break the world record himself his most eye-opening result were his 48.77 knots in marginal wind speed around 25 knots on an over 6 sqm. sail. Patrik Diethelm: “Just for fun I borrowed another rider's 6.3 and could barely start in the light winds. I was happy making it dowwind around the first corner. The run felt slow and almost boring and I was happy to reach the finish without stopping. So far my feelings during the run. After getting the official timing of 48.77 knts I could not believe it. Since then I have bright ideas on how to design faster speed equipment."
The 2022 WOMEN WORLD RECORD by Heidi Ulrich has proven once again how damn fast our boards and sails are.
Today we are happy to be supporting the Prince of Speed organized by Andrea Baldini – Principe that is organizing amazing speed events in the South of France. So if you go really fast sign in to one of his events and break your personal records. If you also want to have a historical moment in your windsurf memory - don’t wait and get one of our PATRIK speed boards which are known to be the most controlled and fastest of all.

SHAPE
SCOOP ROCKER LINE
A board nose as low as possible to maintain the flattest rocker curves, which reduce water and air friction to an absolute minimum.
OUTLINE
Narrow in the tail to minimise the wetted surface area for maximum speeds and a forward wide point for early planing and control. Not too short in length to enable early planing and to allow the rider to use the smallest board possible. Also not too long to optimise aerodynamics and improve control.
BOTTOM SHAPE
Slight V with double concave and side flats in the nose area and under the mast track for a smoother ride. Slight flat V in the tail area for maximum acceleration, speed and control.
DECK SHAPE
An extreme S-deck shape with a low back foot area, high front foot area and a lowered mast track position to provide the most comfortable and controlled downwind sailing position.
RAIL SHAPE
Thin at the nose and at the mid section to reduce weight. Very boxy rails at the front strap prevent water sucking up the rail and allow the rider to stand tall. Thin and low rails at the back foot enable the rider to to stand lower and have the best water release which results in better top speeds.
SUMMARY
We could actually make faster boards, but top speeds are impossible without control. Superiour control gives you the confidence and safety to push yourself beyond your limits. That's why we sacrifice some topspeed on the paper for a controlled and smooth feeling that will get you to your personal records at the end of day. Try our speed range now and you will be hooked forever!
