HYPER 7 FOIL RACE - HYPER CHARGED FLIGHT
The “HyperGlide” is now the “Hyper”. This shift represents the progression from the early-day foil sail development to a podium-winning platform.
The results are clear. Riding the HyperGlide, the Severne team won the following titles in 2023: PWA Mens Slalom World Champion, PWA Mens Vice World Champion, and PWA Womens Slalom World Champion.
The Hyper’s legacy is clear; it has achieved countless national, continental, and world titles over the years, and has formed the base for the current Olympic racing program.
Hyper 7 entry profiles flatter, deepening as you move back in the sail. This design tweak results in more glide and a slippery in-flight feeling. The low drag configuration is boosted by a more open area right above the boom. Altogether, this also generates less downforce on your board. More stability equals more speed.
Power delivery is neutral and intuitive, working with you across a wider wind range boosted by an Xtended range design. The benefit is a much smoother ride, but lock in the Hyper 7 and it will react decisively for a race-winning performance. Fly First Class.

XL PERFORMANCE
Used on the MACH 5, the XL Cam maximizes leading edge stability by allowing increased cam pressure to be distributed over a wider surface area.
Rotation is improved by the increased the leverage of the longer cam.
Mast wear is reduced due to less friction from the 8 rollers.
DIRECT DRIVE TENSIONERS
The DDT 4 and DDT 5 tensioners directly connect the tube batten to the leech of the sail. This new design eliminates the heavy section of the tube that is needed for the standard batten tensioner. And being smaller, it has superior aerodynamics. It is used on all lower tension battens in the OVERDRIVE and the MACH 5.
OPTIONAL CLEW POSITIONS
POSITION 1:
This is the recommended setting and carries the adjustable outhaul fitting. It creates the perfect balance between a comfortable clew height and leech tension. This is the setting that Matteo Iachino will use for 99% of PWA slalom races.
POSITION 2:
This setting is lower and further in. It softens the feel of the sail and may be more comfortable for smaller, lighter riders looking for more control in higher winds.
