2011 North Duke

The North Duke new windsurfing sail is for wave, freestyle and freeride use.

2011 the evolution of the Duke takes a giant step! The latest generation takes you to the next level with a carefully optimized luff curve, modified sail foil tension and optimized batten profiles. Thus, the new Duke is even lighter in the hand and allows you more flexibility than ever for your very own style and freestyle focus. Although the Duke develops maximum performance on RDM masts, they are still 100% compatible with conventional SDM masts.

No other sail can cover such an extremely wide range from wave to flatwater freestyle as perfectly as the Duke. This rule applies for years and the optimized 2011 model more than ever is like a chameleon that adapts to its environment almost automatically. To enable this broad range of use, the whole team was involved. Only this way it’s guaranteed that the Duke will meet all requirements in all conditions.

The requirements for power wave sails and a freestyle sail are very similar: great planing potential combined with maximum handling and good control. Therefore up to 5.4m2 the Duke has been designed as a powerful wave sail. The effective TWIN.TRIM.CLEW means it has the greatest trimming versatility of all their wave sails and the Duke can also easily be controlled by medium weight riders too.

For sail sizes of 5.9m² and above Kai Hopf improved the new Duke strictly according to the specifications of our Triple Freestyle World Champion Jose “Gollito” Perez, and EFPT Champion Andre Paskowski. 5 battens, the HYPER.LEECH II and the unique foot geometry improve the handling especially during difficult Freestyle tricks.
