Windsurf sail NeilPryde 2026 V8 C3

TWIN CAM FREERIDE

 - Our original, best selling power freeride sail.
 - Twin cams for stability, narrow luff compared to race sails for ease of use.
 - Equally comfortable on fin and foil.
 - 7 batten layout. 

Race sail performance without the encumberments of a pure slalom sail. 2 cams and a narrower luff sleeve make the V8 easier to rig, jibe and waterstart than a pure race sail. Don’t let the ease-of-use fool you though, V8 can hold its own around a racecourse and boasts even better early planning than even the most advanced slalom sails. For 2026 we have added Ultra PE X-Ply to the foot and clew, enhancing durability while reducing weight.

Perfectly suited for foil or fin.

INNOVATION

Designed and tested at our NeilPryde Maui Design Center by Robert Stroj, then further developed through our team riders' feedback from across the world. No stone is left uncovered in our relentless drive to be the best at what we do.

Sail Features:

Our Fastest Freeride Sail
Borrowing concepts from the RS:Racing sail line, V8 is the fastest sail you will find that is not a fully race-tuned machine.

Ease of Use
Light-weight, stable profile and easier to rig than a full on race sail. Top speed and acceleration will be close to that of the RS:Racing but rigging, gybing and water starting will be easier due to the twin cam setup, slightly reduced downhaul tension and the narrower luff sleeve.

Fin or Foil
Equally at home on foil or fin, V8 will allow you to get the most out of every session, no matter where you are.

7 Batten Layout
Ultimate control and stability are provided by the 7 batten layout.

Twin Cam
2 mini cams offer the easiest possible rigging of a cambered sail while still providing the benefits of a locked front profile.
