2009 Loft Sails Lip Wave
The Lip Wave is The Loft’s hard-core wave design that excels in both onshore and sideshore conditions.
The Lip Wave is trim reactive to an extreme, allowing your rig to adapt to your windsurfing conditions;
onshore and sideshore optimisation.
The Lip Wave is built to last. Our unique integrated panel concept creates a sail body that resists like no
other… the Lip Wave is hard core to the bone.
The Lip 09 is engineered with:
-The Loft’s integrated panel concept, monofilm-free.
-Kevlar tri-axial Xply foot and leech panels.
-Stepped x-ply application.
-Molded thermo-foam mast/board pad with Roll-up strap.
-Updated graphics.
-Sensitip head batten system & adjustable outhaul.
-Soft molded pvc foot edge, foot 2ply and tack batten protectors.
The Lip is born in the wind and excels in the upper end. Rdm recommended sdm compatible.
The Lip Wave has received critical acclaim in magazine tests…
Windsport magazine North America wave tests 08: The Loft Lip Wave 5.7
“The sail is so tunable, we found ourselves straying from the recommended specs with dramatic results in how the sail
feels. …the Lip does an incredible job of splitting hairs between power and responsiveness.
Less downhaul makes it powerful and well-suited to onshore conditions, while more downhaul flattens the Lip for a softer
feel and on/off power required for sideshore wavesailing. …no other sail can alter its feel as much as the Lip Wave.”
Surf magazine Germany wave tests 08: Lip 5.2 “It is striking how easy this sail is to rig, trim and surf”
Planchemag wave tests 08: The Loft Lip Wave 4.7 “Pure wave and high speed”
“…it is a very versatile wave sail meant for alot of different people in different conditions. Once again, it's hard to find a real weakness to this sail.”
+ : ratio softness/nervousness, comfort, ratio handling/neutrality, construction, wind range
- : nothing to report
Wind magazine wave tests 08: The Loft Lip Wave 5.0
“…the Loft Sails Lip Wave 4,3 is a really versatile sail, meant for alot of different people and different conditions, being
always homogeneous and efficient. A good choice and a gentle price.”
