The Test Quiver

When testing it’s important to eliminate as many variables as possible. For this test we chose to use identical Fanatic boards in a range of sizes and styles to get the best picture of how the sails perform. We would like to thank Fanatic for lending us Quad 72 and 79s and Twin 86 boards to conduct the testing. The full tests on these boards will appear later in the year, but in the meantime you can check out the pictures of them within the pages of this test. fanatic.com

Still on the subject of equipment, it’s extremely important to be able to quickly readjust each sail at the water’s edge, so that we can pinpoint its best setting(s). For this purpose nothing comes close to the North Power XT RDM extensions for ease of use and quick adjustment. Thanks to North Sails for their help in getting our Clone test team geared up with these. north-windsurf.com
