Powerwave
Atlas offers predictable, steady and user friendly drive, ideal for use in on-shore wave conditions. Early to plane, the Atlas is up and ready to get into the action with efficient, usable power at all times. Featuring great upwind ability and acceleration, the Atlas pushes hard when conditions are less than ideal and its high lift characteristics ensure massive jumping performance.

DESIGNER'S COMMENT
The 2016 Atlas has been totally re-designed with the objective of keeping all the drive and power, which characterize this sail, but improving the handling when riding waves. We achieved this by tuning the luff-curve which now permits better twist in the lowermiddle leech so excess power can be released, preventing backhand overload. At the same time, we increased the profile on lower two battens to ensure no power is lost.
