For 2026, RS:Racing EVO XVII hones in on the smaller sizes from 5.6 down—inspired directly from the speed sail that shattered windsurfing speed records in 2024. Expect screaming acceleration, razor-sharp drive, and elite-level, race winning efficiency.
The larger sizes remain unchanged in design from 2025, including technological advancements from the introduction of new materials last year: Taffeta in the upper luff sleeve and Lite Skin Aramid in the clew. For 2026, we further enhanced durability by utilizing our strongest rip-stop Dacron in the front of the upper luff sleeve.
These material advancements allowed us to improve durability and increase stretch resistance to create an even more responsive and competitive race sail.
6 out of 7 battens are pure carbon tubes, reducing weight and stabilizing the profile of the sail.
DESIGN DRIVEN
INNOVATION
Designed and tested at our NeilPryde Maui Design Center by Robert Stroj, then further developed through our team riders' feedback from across the world. No stone is left uncovered in our relentless drive to be the best at what we do.
THE MOST WINNING RACE SAIL EVOLUTION ON THE PLANET
RS:Racing holds more world titles and speed records than any other racing sail over the past 20 years.
QUADRUPLE LUFF CONSTRUCTION
4 levels of material make up the luff sleeve to increase strength and load carrying performance in this critical, high-stress area of the sail. This luff sleeve design allows us to carry a maximum amount of downhaul tension and greatly reduces stretch in the luff sleeve area, thus increasing performance.
Introduced in 2024, Taffeta in the upper luff sleeve increases stretch resistance, performance and durability.
7 BATTEN DESIGN
Ultimate control and stability are provided by the 7 batten design.
AIRFLOW BATTEN LAYOUT
Battens are laid out in an aerodynamically correct way, taking into account the rake of the sail when sailing. This improves airflow, allows for easier rotation and faster acceleration.
LEADING EDGE RIB
Carbon ribs sewn onto the upper sleeve’s leading edge stabilize this critical section of the profile on the highest battens where cambers are not used.
This helps maintain the sail’s profile clean, reducing drag, allowing higher top speed and ensuring proper rotation.
NEW MATERIALS IN LUFF AND CLEW
The new materials have allowed us to improve durability and increase stretch resistance to create an even more responsive and competitive race sail.
5.6 OPTIMIZED IN 2025
The 5.6 is now based on our extremely successful 5.7 Speed specific sail but with a reduced foot, optimized for slalom.
