New for 2023

Improving a project that has a long history of development and amazing success takes even more time than a new project. It has been inspected and tested in each single corner, but for 2023 we can call it a big change. The 8.8 is a new size that will make sure that you will not need a bigger size for slalom sailing. The new power in light wind of the sail will increase the average speed on the course as in light wind is simply better, maintaining the qualities that we all have experienced in these years. 7.8 has followed the same development of the 8.8, but the feeling of this new 7.8 is the control in the gusts that it will give to the board. The sail has become even easier as the wind builds up and will keep power in light wind. 7.1 is now a 7.0. For 2022 we had lingered the boom as the power was too close to the 6.2 in the past, and that was already one step forward. By reworking the profile, the leach, and the outline, we have produced the best 7.1 AC-1 ever in Point-7. Acceleration better, speed better, comfort better…you name it, and it will just be better. 200m on it and you will not go back to the older model, which was already a great sail. 6.0, 5,4 and 4.9 are the new smaller sizes from the AC-1. The same boom length but a total new outline from the top of the leach. A much tighter leach due to the smaller head is the new AC-1. A faster outline which makes the sail much more stable and firmer when dropping downwind at full throttle. A faster speed in light winds due to its tighter leach. Just 20% less effort needed when sailing in tough conditions.

Rigging

The AC-1 needs to have the mast inserted on top of the cams. After pulling downhaul to 15cm of its final setting you can either put on the boom, and later pop on the cams before putting the final downhaul on, or place the cams on with the right technique, pulling on full downhaul, and then putting the boom on. You will find more instructions and videos on the support section on our website.

Playing with the outhaul will boost up power or increase control. Tighten the lower 2 battens and the top batten, but just remove wrinkles on the other battens, without overtightening them.
