More safety, more confidence, more fun on the water
Anyone who's been known to pick up some serious speed while windsurfing knows that when you wipe out, it happens in a flash. A moment of inattention, a small mistake – and boom, catapult deluxe. Now there's something new for just such moments: the Patrik Free Fall Hook.
This isn't a gimmick, but a real safety tool that protects you and your equipment when things go wrong.
How it all began.
The Free Fall Hook was invented by Frank Rozier, a passionate foiler who had had enough after a violent crash that left him with a broken foot. Instead of just complaining, he tinkered around – and came up with the idea for an automatically triggering harness hook system.
His goal: to prevent injuries and restore confidence in foiling.
Together with Diethelm, Frank's idea became a market-ready product. The result: a clever mechanism that does exactly what you need in extreme situations – it lets go.
Here's how the Free Fall Hook works:
The Free Fall Hook recognizes when things get too intense. If the load gets too high, it automatically releases – right when you're hanging in the air and a crash is unavoidable.
The goal: to protect you from injury while also protecting your gear. No broken booms, no destroyed sails, no unnecessary stress – just more safety and confidence on the water.
In principle, the whole thing works like a ski binding for windsurfing – smart, safe, and customized.
Technically sophisticated, but easy to use
.A robust lever ensures reliability, and the entire system is maintenance-friendly and durable.
Even if you bury it in the sand, it's no big deal. The hook can be easily disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled.
