RRD VOGUE BLACK RIBBON Y29

Introducing the all-new Vogue BLACK RIBBON, our lightest and highest performing wave sail ever. Fresh from victory in probably the most extreme World Cup event ever, in Fiji, in the hands of Baptiste Cloarec, this sail will take you to new levels.

Long before Covid arrived, we set out to create the ultimate lightweight yet durable wave sail — something that feels feather-light in the hands, yet can withstand all the abuse Mother Nature can deliver. This journey led us to develop our BLKRBN Technora film: an ultra-lightweight scrim using Technora yarns to create an incredibly strong, stretch-resistant structure, bonded together by an ultra-thin film.

The key advantage of this technology over standard membrane construction is that it is produced in rolls under an extremely controlled process, with very high resistance to delamination, resulting in a long-lasting and highly durable sail.
Combine this with the test-winning frame of the Vogue HD, and we have created the ultimate high-performance wave sail, designed for advanced wave riders and all high-wind users.
