HOW?

At Vandal we are certainly no new kids on the block. We were born under the wing of Gaastra, a company that has been leading the field for over 25 years, and we were born with a purpose… we aim to create the highest performing products at low costs.

Vandal 2015

HOW?

Windsurfing is an expensive sport, there is no denying that. It’s time for a fresh new approach, to buck the trend, to offer more for less... Here we don’t believe in having a large international team of riders, we don’t have the overheads of a small start up company and we don’t invest large bud-gets into fancy marketing campaigns. No, our focus is purely on our prod-ucts, their price and you, our customers.

With Gaastra, we are one of the only brands world wide who produce our own products in our own factory based in China. Our sail cloth is also pro-duced by our own factory in Taiwan. So with the backing and experience of a leading manufacturer, and the best possible materials available, we have been quietly working hard to produce the most durable, high quality range of products that are outstanding in both performance and price.

Have you always wanted that extra sail to your quiver to make the most of those days on the water? Well, we might just be able to help... There are no gimmicks, we produce test winning products with prices that don’t lie.

Page 4: 2015v dealermanual 01sd 20140708 lr

We use only the best materials for our Vandal range. The very light and durable “Dimension Polyant” 2ply and xply material is used throughout all the sails. This along with high quality clear and coloured mono film gives our sails high UV resistance and come in a range of great colours. We also included our own newly devel-oped “IYU” neon water repellent mast sleeve material which is both the lightest in weight and strength around.

We have produced once again a line of test winning sails developed by our in house designer. New for 2015, we’ve extended our Vandal range with a brand new twin cam sail which we have named the ‘Mission’, we also have a brand new design for the ‘Riot’, our radical wave and new school freestyle sail. All of our sails have been updated with a fresh new set of graphics along with these following features.

This is an essential factor to the success of our Vandal sail designs. The bionic concave panel layout is the triangular curve design around the sails window. This panel layout makes for the perfect distribution of power over the seams within the sails body creating better stability, durability and overall performance.

The intelligent mast sleeve curve has been introduced to the ‘Mission’. It is made with a narrow sleeve from the top of the sail down to the first snap on camber that sits just above the boom. The sleeve then opens up creating a deeper powerful profile with a nice twist at the top of the sail. This allows for an incredibly stable balanced feel in the hand and excellent early planing capabilities.

ENEMY

FACTS

ENEMY HD

The Enemy comes once again with two versions with a 100% xply material throughout the Enemy HD and a mono film win-dow introduced for the standard Enemy.

The Enemy is our hardcore wave sail designed to cope with everything there is to be thrown at it. For 2015 we have adapt-ed the concave panel layout to create a better profile for better stability and overall performance. There is the light-weight 2 ply material in to the upper body of the sail to ensure a low swing weight and lightweight feel in the hand.

RIOT

FACTS

The Riot is our best handling and performance wave / freestyle sail. All wave sailors out there want that lightweight feel in their hands whilst receiving constant power through-out their turns, and all freestylers want that power instantly to pop into their moves. For 2015 we’ve created an earlier delivery of power that is always there when you need it.

We’ve made a few defined tweaks to its design and includ-ed a couple of extra sizes to the line up. We kept the short luff concept for maneuverability and adjusted the design to bring better power delivery, better handling and over-all stability. This beautifully balanced feel comes from the improved bionic concave panel layout and the use of light weight materials in the upper body of the sail.

We’re very excited about this sail and urge every wave and freestyle enthusiast out there to get their hands on one.

ADDICT

FACTS

The Addict is our no cam crossover Bump and Jump sail. The extremely versatile 2015 Addict has a new concave panel layout and has also been introduced with a couple of extra sail sizes to this very popular design.

We know how some freeriders out there like to get airborne and mix things up a bit on the water, for that reason we’ve focused on keeping the Addict as manoeuvrable as possible for 2015. The slightly concaved leach design will eliminate any leach flutter whilst maintaining stability and with the full profile the Addict will get you planing straight off the beach.

The dacron luff panel is incredibly water resistant keeping the sail light-weight and comfortable whether you are blasting or water starting. It’s also vital to delivering a great wind range and profile when the winds increase.

The Stitch is our no cam Freeride / Freerace sail. It has blown the competition away with its test winning results and incredible top end speeds. For 2015 we have kept the short clew concept to maintain its excellent control, you can even fit the 8m on a 150cm - 210cm wave / freestyle boom.

The new concave panel layout will have you flying past your friends on the water and into those gybes with maximum comfort and control. The 2015 Stitch does everything for you, just hook in, lean back and feel the acceleration. For a non cambered sail you won’t believe speed and stability delivered with such ease. Simply enjoy.

The Mission is a brand new twin cambered Free race sail to the Van-dal range. We thought it was about time to extend our sail range and build on the incredibly fast Stitch. So, we thought we’d throw in a couple of cams and a new intelligent mast sleeve system to cre-ate an even faster racing machine.

Firstly, the Mission is all about better wind ranges, earlier accelera-tion and speed. To deliver that we introduced a new intelligent mast sleeve concept… Starting from the top of the mast we have a nar-row sleeve down to the first snap on camber that sits just above the boom. Right here we opened up the mast sleeve to give a deeper more powerful profile giving you all the acceleration and top end speed you can handle.

Secondly, we didn’t want to have all this power without it being comfortable and easy to use. So by having the narrow sleeve in the upper body of the sail and the powerful profile at the centre of the sail, we have created a lightweight stable feeling in the hand, perfect for going fast and laying into gybes.
