Description
The Idol is Duotone's freestyle sail for advanced and expert riders who compete or train at the top level of new school freestyle. Built around the BATTEN FREE CENTER concept and the LIGHT DONE RIGHT construction philosophy, it sheds 200 to 300 g over a conventional design without reducing main panel film thickness. The performance is there every session, not just in the spec sheet.
At the heart of the Idol freestyle windsurfing sail is the BATTEN FREE CENTER: a deliberately larger gap between the foot batten and the batten above the boom. That open section changes how the sail loads up. Instead of a sharp, binary on-off, you get a smooth, progressive power build that makes duck moves feel controllable from the first attempt.
The sail goes neutral exactly when you need it to, then reloads cleanly on the way out. For air moves, the CONVEX DACRON LUFF PANEL maintains full elasticity and keeps the sail loaded up when you need lift against the sail. You stay in control of the move, not fighting it.
The HOLLOW LOWER LEECH locks the profile above the boom and eliminates leech flutter. iROCKET 2.0 batten tensioners are calibrated individually at the factory using a torque wrench. The 100-micron ULTRA FILM monofilm holds the weight low. DOUBLE SEAM technology covers all crash areas with triple-stitch zig-zag seams, and break-resistant epoxy battens handle whatever competition riding throws at them.
Available in sizes 3.6 to 5.2 m² on an RDM mast, the Idol also includes a FOIL EYELET for hybrid foil sessions and the full VTS trim system for fast, accurate rigging. 2027 introduces a new black/violet colorway.
