OVERVIEW

Originally developed as a true hybrid design, the RACE MA quickly became a permanent part of our World Cup team riders’ quivers. “MA” stands for Medium Aspect Ratio, and by combining everything learned from the development of both the LA and HA ranges, the new MA brings together the best characteristics of each to create the ultimate hybrid racing sail. Whether blasting on the fin or flying on the foil, the RACE MA GEN 2 delivers a perfectly balanced and controlled feel across a wide range of conditions.

A slightly straighter luff curve compared to the LA reduces back-hand pressure and improves control in stronger winds. At the same time, the power delivery is smoother and more progressive, creating a more comfortable and forgiving ride without sacrificing performance.

The RACE MA is especially suited to lighter-weight riders and recreational racers who want high efficiency and versatility, with a lighter feeling and easier handling. It excels on long reaches, cross-wind and gusty conditions and remains highly effective across changing wind and water conditions. At the same time the MA offers outstanding usability on foil with slighty more backhand response for early flight and the ability to ride smaller sail sizes.

Top-level performance — whatever the conditions.

CONSTRUCTION

We’ve stripped weight where it’s felt most, maintaining the rigid frame essential for high-performance power and control. By relocating the top three batten tensioners forward, we’ve minimized swing weight at the leech for a freer, more responsive head. Our optimized reinforcements and material selection deliver a superior strength-to-weight ratio that resists stretching—even after a full season of racing. Designed with Swiss precision and World Cup approved by our R&D team, PATRIK sails offer the durability that 'disposable' ultra-light sails simply can’t match.
