for sale: NAISH windsurfing


For Sale
NAISH - windsurfing

selling a full range:

  • Session 3.7 / 4.2 / 4.7 / 5.3 mast 370 incl.
The Naish Session is a purist wave sail from 3.7 - 5.3.

The entire range features a draft-forward shape and moderate aspect ratio. This results in a soft feel and balanced front hand pressure yet with plenty of available power for the non-stop surfing performance.

The result is both the best down-the-line sail on the market AND the ideal all-around wavesail for smaller, lighter riders, plus new sizes that are the perfect
solution for bump and jump sailing.

Construction: Ultralight Surf
Purpose:Sideshore surfing, allaround wavesailing for lighter riders
Characteristics:Draft forward, soft leech, light feel - large sizes optimized for bump and jump
Geometry: Single Dacron luff panel, moderate aspect ratio, 5 battens 



  •   wave 64
The Naish wave boards are developed directly by Robby Naish, along with riders like Kai Lenny and Julien Taboulet, who ride them every time they hit the water— no custom boards allowed.

 A new rocker line is coupled with a singleconcave midsection and v-tail section that flows into a continuously lifted tail kick behind the back foot strap.

Softer rails in the nose and mid-area of the board, combined with thinner pinched rails at the tail, perform miracles on a wave.

The boards deliver both the versatility of a single fin AND the loose, tighter "on-the-face" turning ability of multi-fin setups.

Supplied with two fin sets—single center fin and our independently designed thrusters—the rider can customize his own board for his preferred riding style
and/or the conditions of the day.

  NAISH NO KA OI
