Traditional construction

The Avanti Monofilm sails are made of both high quality monofilm and extra strong Xply. This combination of materials has been predominant in the windsurfing industry for 25 years - for good reason. Monofilm and Xply are extremely cost effective and easy to produce.

Avanti now also produces the most important sail models from these materials in order to be able to meet all customer requirements.

Besides the lower price, the differences to the membrane lie in the general driving feel, durability and reactivity. Here, the membrane has clear advantages.

However, the high-quality production and choice of materials of the Avanti Monofilm series puts most competitors in the shade. So if you are looking for a cheaper, but high quality alternative to the classic Avanti Sails membrane line, you will find it here. The performance-oriented sails are also a highlight on the water in traditional construction. 

Membrane construction

The diaphragm is different from traditional construction: more complicated to manufacture, more expensive and costly to source materials, but with unique, distinctive advantages. These are characterized by less weight, both on the scale and in the driving experience, by longer durability and superior performance. The origin of these characteristics lies in the membrane itself, as each sail panel is individually customized to the specific sail size and type.

Ultimately, aramid fibers distribute the force of the wind optimally in the sail to ensure the smoothest possible ride and an absolutely stable pressure point. In addition, the wind range of the sails increases enormously, since the pressure point does not move around in the sail depending on the conditions. 

While traditional sails stretch in the wind and thus tend to wear more quickly, any unwanted tensile forces are almost completely eliminated by the membrane. 

The result can be felt from the first second on the water and is incomparable.
