COMBAT ALLROUNDWAVE
CORE WAVE – HD & VISIBILITY
Combat is our World Cup Team Riders’ sail of choice. Completely redesigned in 2024, the main design features remain unchanged for 2025. A higher aspect design featuring a slightly longer mast, wider head and narrower boom greatly increases high end control in this year’ s edition of our best-selling wave sail.
The Combat construction provides pro-level construction techniques at an un-matched price point. Identical to the Combat HD but with a clear center window, the Ultra PE X- Ply sail body makes for an extremely durable sail that is still light in the hands and offers better visibility on the wave for those who prefer not to ride an x-ply centre window.
The introduction of Powerfuse in the tack and clew of our HD construction since 2024 represents a significant upgrade over previous HD models, providing a pro-level strength-to-weight ratio at a more affordable price than the Pro Fuse.
**2.9 available only in Pro Fuse, 5.6 available only in HD**
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.
In 2024, we re-invented our wave sail range from the bottom up. We started at the 3D design level, creating new panel layouts and using new materials to eliminate stitches, reduce weight and increase responsiveness. In 2025, the main design features remain unchanged, but we have improved material choices in the foot and clew for even greater durability.
The result is our best wave sail line up in the company's history.

SAIL FEATURES
Drive & Acceleration
A new, higher aspect design for 2024 with a slightly longer luff, narrower boom and bigger head gives the Combat excellent drive and acceleration whether on the wave or getting going in marginal conditions.
Wide Wind Range
Thanks to the re-designed outline, updated luff curve and new, larger panel layout, this is the most versatile version of this sail yet. Rig it full when the wind is light or you want to use a small sail for extra maneuverability, or pull on a little extra outhaul when rigging for over-powered conditions.
Stability
Our latest luff curve and sail shaping stiffened up the sail very slightly compared to 2023 and the resulting 24/25 sails will remain stable even in high winds.
4 Batten Layout
Our new panel layout has drastically reduced the amount of stitches needed in the sail. This combined with carefully planned material selections allowed us to cut around 25% off the weight of the sails from model year 2023 to 24/25.
