Here are a few shots of the TR9s:
TR9 8.4:
TR9 9.2:
Tested the 7.0 on the Exocet RS6 with a Select Vmax 47 in a gusty breeze 20-27 knots.
The sail felt perfectly balanced, constantly accelerating in the gusts with the Mauisails trademark of light handling and control.
Small refinements from the TR8 that make the difference.
Look very nice, looking forward to getting the smaller sizes up to speed, been a great year on the tr8's, and looking like a good a great summer ahead on the tr9's.
Just recieved my new sails had a quick rig of the 6.3m TR9 before heading to work, sails looks great really stoked with the shape and quality.
I suck at putting on sail numbers though too many tiny air bubbles and yes I did use soap and water
Very nice Choco, rolled mine out tonight for a quick look, noticed a few nice changes in masts and profiles, will rig them up tomoz and sus them out proper, to many work ales tonight!!
Yes stuck some masts in mine this morning and very pleased, rigged beautifully, and the 6.3 now rigging on a 400, i think this sail is going to be a weapon, holds excellant shape, can't wait to get blown off the water on them all. The flouro yellow one is my fav colour.
Drag races over summer hey Choco!!!! Loser buys hey!!
Had my first sail on the new 6.3 wind was gusting to around 18knts so not really ideal size to have up still waiting for my 7m mast to arrive but I was hanging to give it a try.
First couple of runs the sail felt very backhanded and heavy in the hands and the board wasn't breaking free onto the fin properly came back in and measured the downhaul and found I was 3cm off the proper setting added the extra downhaul and went back out again, transformed the sail, felt really light and balanced in the hands and and got going alot easier in the moderate wind, very happy with the performance another 15knts would have been ideal, like all modern race sails out there today the handling and performance is so easy.
First rig of the TR9 5.5m sets beautifully, nice even twist and very full profile below the boom, going to be a weapon on the speed board this summer.
I was out on mine two days ago, and really happy with the sail, like you said great shape around the boom and more shape around the bottom battern, rigged it to specs with minimal changes on the water and it felt great, balanced and comfortable, fun times to come i think
Had my first session with the 6.3(exocet RS2) in some good wind gusts around 30knt mark water very chop with the occasional smooth section, the acceleration this sail produces is outstanding, from a standing start blasting off the wind through the chop hit a max speed of 36.8knts within 150m of distance, the sail is also so comfortable and balanced which lets you concentrate in the choppy conditions without having to fight the rig to stay in control....all in all stoked!!
Just did 39 knots on my Mauisails TR9 6.3 in rough water with a 95l board, they simply smoke off the wind!!!!!
