Velas The Loft LIP Wave -

[madspaniard]

Hola,

estoy pensando comprarme una LIP Wave 5.0 del 2006 que me dejan nueva a buen precio para completar entre la 4.6 Windwing y la 5.4 NP.

Queria saber como van estas velas, rango, early planing, potencia, de-powering, ligereza, durabilidad, que tal para saltos y freestyle?

Gracias

Yo no las he probado pero aqui en Tarifa se ven mucho. El otro dia me estuve fijando en una de este año y tiene una pinta cojonuda, muy bien terminada y con muchos buenos detalles. Deben de ir bastante bien. Ademas Monty parece buen diseñador y un tio serio.

Hi there

Sorry for the English, i do not speek Spanish
I have the 5.0 2006 model (black), and it's really amazing...
It's the first year that Monty put's a sail between de 4.7 & 5.2. Now it's possible to have one sail less than normal!!
The Lip is really amazing sail, i use it for wave & freestyle. The 100 % xply in the sail make is bulletproof!!!
I'm using Atan RDM masts in it, SDM is also possible!!!
Depowering is going really supereasy with the new trim stainless tack roller, good protection with the big mast protector....

Thanks Mr. Saxo, what about low end power and wind range? How well the lip wave recover after depowering? I've tested the NP Combat and once depowered the sail takes a bit to get it back fully powered. How heavy does the X-ply feel in the lip wave?
