Loft Sails Switchblade Windsurfing Sail
2011 Loft Sails Switchblade Multi Cam Windsurfing Sail

The Loft Switchblade = performance optimization through the entire range of use.

Switchblades enjoy innovative rig ergonomics that result in the fastest rig config for many sailors.

Switch Blades allow the sailor to optimise their sail, both to conditions (through many adjustability options), but also to a sailors existing equipment.

Switch blades allow use of rdm and sdm masts. Simply switch the exclusive Loft Rdm Tekcams to Sdm Tekcams, and your Switchblade fits the mast you choose, bringing the best balanced feeling you search for. For rdm masts- 2 Reduced Tekcams are packed into the sailbag… simply remove the 2 lower Large Tekcams, and place the Reduced Tekcams. Switch! Simple!

Switchblade 2011 features include:

  • Blade mast pocket construction: mast panel AND pocket sides (3 elements) tensioned directly.
  • Firm, clean, easy-rotating leading edge.
  • Sensitip head batten system.
  • Alternate side batten pocket applications with xply pockets (centered battens).
  • Metallic cam interfaces.
  • Tekcams (x6). Rdm and Sdm mast compatibility… new, simple, functional, light, adjustable, durable.

  • Planchemag 2009 “Equipment Zapp”, The Loft Switchblade 7.8 Oct 2008. Excerpts translated to English by Anton of WXT Holland:

    “Very easy to rig (490rdm), the construction is a benchmark for the level of reinforcements. Overall performance is excellent, very close to a racing sail. This sail is all you need for almost all kinds of windsurfers. In jibes the cambers rotate well and the sail feels light. The sail has the power to pull the heaviest windsurfboard into planning. We also rigged the SB with a North Gold Sdm, changing the cambers (which is easy!) and the sail seemed perfect. The SB works in a big wind range, in combination with daggerboard windsurfboards (light, and very powerful). Switch Blade: A very nice surprise, suitable for all kinds of windsurfers.”
