Innovation is our middle name at TRIBAL and we aim to stay in the lead and produce high quality products with a high performance level. Designed in our own sail design software programme, KIOWA shows great ergonomic performance in a light and durable set-up, coupled with functional stability in the sail. With a dynamic leech and crisp gust response, KIOWA will deliver an engaging ride that will put you in the box seat!
SET-UP
KIOWA is available in 1 stunning colour combination: Blue/Yellow. For better vision we have decided to make use of an extra wide and open X-Ply material in the window of the sail, adding the security of a 100% X-ply construction, a heavy-duty construction and a softer feel, which still offers crystal clear vision and a crisp gust response. We have also added an extra mini batten to the top panel in the design to reduce leech flutter when overpowered.
KIOWA VS HELIX
KIOWA has a more compact profile compared to our 5-batten wave sail range, HELIX and less built-in foil shape for a more “throw-around” persona. Also, the recommended boom and mast lengths create a more compact sail than HELIX. Aramid Draft Lock clew stringers help to stabilise draft and provide a stronger, more responsive clew. The use of our hi-tech tri-Axial 2 ply laminate in the top panels of the sail keeps the swing weight down. Added luff curve has seriously improved the sail's wind range and allows the front of the sail to fill up more.
