2009 TR-5
Racing/Slalom

The TR-5 from MauiSails is far beyond an average race sail. Super tuned now after four seasons, the TR-5 is perfectly refined and balanced for easy top speed and the wide range necessary for top results in crowded racing. A consistent soft feel, superior low end, and solid control at speed are sure to deliver the best results. World Champion results in Formula and very competitive speed in Slalom 4/2, has proven our advanced shaping techniques by delivering the performance.

We have been building on an evolving unusual shaping method, and refinement and performance consistency moving size to size has been the focus. Developing an even tension and smooth transition from fuller lower sections to flatter more twisted upper sections results in excellent low end power and amazing upwind speed. Slalom sizes benefit from similar adjustments and a general easing of tension to make a soft feel.

NEW Technical Features for the TR-5

- Reduced Luff Curve and progressive Dynamic Skin Tension for softer feel and twisted flying shape for higher top end with no loss to low end power.
- New Camber Inducers reduce weight and smooth rotation.
- Raised Boom Cut Out opening.
- Improved Chafe Resistance against the boom on the batten pocket.
- Integrated Reinforcement plys in high wear areas increase life.
- New Light Weight Tack Fairing with Impact Bumper.
- New Batten Tensioner smoothes trailing edge with cleaner load dispersion.
