UPE85/CZ - La Zephyr Wing V2

Lighter and cheaper !
 This is the promise of our UPE85 range. This new material manufactured by Dimension Polyant is entirely designed and dedicated for the wing. UPE is a laminated material, it provides very strong seams and therefore allows higher inflation pressures. Its induction protects it from UVs and gives it a shiny appearance. With its 85 gr/m2 it is lighter than Dyneema which allows us to push the limits even further and obtain even lighter sails.

 The V2 version of our all-purpose wing The Zephyr features several improvements such as:
  
 reduced leading edge and central strut diameters to save weight but also aerodynamic flow,
  
 slight increase in the dihedral in order to gain in low range,
  
 SUP type valves,
  
 modifying the tensions in the canopy in order to have better pumping in the start-up phases,
  
 new extra-light sausage attachment system,
  
 an internal dacron reinforcement system which stiffens the entire wing and better holds the profile,
  
 a reinforced 30% Dyneema 34gr/m2 and 70% CZ05 72gr/m2 canopy,
  
 weight of V2 reduced compared to V1.

 Its UPE85 structure ensures exceptional rigidity and durability while remaining very light. The shape has been designed to provide a certain flex on the wing's ears. This allows you to stay focused and continue to accelerate in full gust, without being destabilized and torn off.

 The Zephyr Wing is the result of many compromises: we wanted to give it a good low range to take off without difficulty but without sacrificing the high range so that when you are overpowered the wing remains totally manageable. Its Dyneema® canvas in 34 gr/m2 and CZ-72 gr makes it more resistant than the spinnaker.

 Its interchangeable handles allow you to choose between flexible, semi-rigid, 100% rigid or the carbon boom !

 The Zephyr Wing is sold as standard with 100% rigid handles. However, it is possible to choose a configuration with the carbon wishbone and the 2 inserts in the middle in order to switch to handles or a configuration with the carbon wishbone without the 2 inserts in the middle (boom only).
