Falcon Slalom

5 all new PWA production shapes are unleashed after a total tune-up of every single feature with one single aim in mind – speed. Our fresh Compact Design Concept (CDC) made the 140, 125, and 113 lighter wind models shorter for minimum drag and max lift, and the, 89 and 99 lower volume, higher-wind styles longer for security blasting down the strip. Extra width and fuller Comfort Heel Rails around the front feet flow to boxier edges in the straightened-out tails for extra grip, push, comfort, and control in any wind strength. Shaper Sebastian Wenzel’s CAD- analysis produced a unique Scoop Rockerline with a higher entry and shorter Flat Section combined with increased Tail Kick for ultimate no-limits release and a silky easy-to-sail feel. Added Nose-to-Mid-section V and subtle Double Concaves cut through any sea state more efficiently and on-deck the successful mast recess is lowered further and tweaked to blend smoothly into the volume flow. Produced in Biax Carbon Sandwich Light only for ultimate élite and national level racing weight and stiffness performance.

New: Falcon Slalom 79, the “missing link” is now completed! At 56cm wide, the Falcon 79 is the perfect high wind slalom machine, whilst at the same time the solution for all speed/GPS sailors, looking for that “missing link” for less than perfect days to hit incredible top end speeds.

Biax and Carbon Kevlar/Basalt Sandwich Light Technology

Top quality and high-tech specification Biax Carbon has a perfect weight to stiffness ratio as a result of its very fine weave, plus has fantastic dynamic flex. In combination with PVC Sandwich Technology and Glass reinforcements, it provides a perfect stiffness/flex/weight ratio on the Falcon Slalom line.
We used the same basic construction for our Freeride Limited Edition boards, except that on the deck we have a full Carbon Kevlar layup which has a better shock absorbing character than pure carbon, for more comfort, whilst offering a very stiff and light performance, which is needed for these high performance Freeride/Freerace boards (Shark LTD/Hawk LTD/Ray LTD). On the bases of the LTD boards we have the new innovative Basalt cloth, a cloth which is not only technically superior to many other standard cloths, but also environment friendlier in both the creation and re-cycling thereof. All of these models are produced with the light finish sanded look, for extra weight savings, whilst the new polished and airbrushed rails and bases are the ultimate optic for 2012!
