OFFWIND PERFECTION

3Di Composite Sailmaking, Now Available Downwind

For the first time, sailors can enjoy the benefits of 3D molding and composite construction in select downwind sails. 3D molding provides a precisely shaped and smooth sail surface for optimized aerodynamics. Composite construction enables high-resolution spread filament tape distribution, placing exactly the right amount of material in exactly the right direction. 3Di Downwind eliminates the parasitic weight and inevitable distortion of mylar film – a significant advantage in lightweight downwind sails.


  • Custom designed sails for maximum VMG
  • Targeted for fast, flat Code Sail applications
  • Downwind spread filament tape series; high strength, lightweight.
  • Helix Technology is standard on all Code Sails
