SLX FIN 2026 — Handcrafted Sail

Pure Fin Racing. Back at the Top.

The SLX 2026 marks the strong return of fin racing. With increased power in the back of the profile, superior control when overpowered and explosive acceleration out of the gybe, it is built for riders who want pure speed, stability and winning performance under the latest PWA rules.

>Product Overview

After two full seasons of SlalomX competition at PWA level, one thing is clear: fin racing is back — faster and more demanding than ever.
The SLX 2026 has been developed to answer this evolution, delivering a significant step forward in acceleration, control and top-end performance.


Key Performance Benefits

  • Increased power in the back of the sail for stronger drive

  • Improved control in overpowered conditions

  • Faster and more efficient acceleration out of the gybe

  • Stable and precise handling at maximum speed


New S-Shape Technology

The updated S-Shape design improves leech behavior across the entire wind range.

  • Cleaner and more progressive leech opening

  • No flapping at the top

  • Increased stability during acceleration

  • Maintains exceptional top-end speed

The result is a sail that stays locked and composed, even when fully powered.


Optimized for the New PWA Rules

The latest PWA format allows riders to select 3 sails from a 4-sail quiver for each event.
The SLX 2026 is designed to perfectly match this approach, offering highly efficient quiver combinations.

Recommended Quiver Options

Light Wind Setup
8.5 – 7.5 – 6.5

High Wind Setup
7.5 – 6.5 – 5.5

Lightweight Rider Setup
7.5 – 6.5 – 5.5 – 4.8

This flexibility allows every rider to optimize performance based on conditions and body weight.
