The package includes:

Sail Loftsails Raceboardblade
If you're into raceboarding, you know that Loftsails Raceboardblade sails have dominated raceboard courses for years, and last year was no exception! First, the European Championships in Portugal, then the World Championships in Hungary, and to top it off, the Masters World Championships - Patrik Pollak won all three events on Loftsails Raceboardblade sails! For this year, Monty Spindler (Loftsails designer) along with Pollak, Rodrigues, and Manchon (also top world raceboarders) have prepared three versions of the sail, each tailored to specific conditions you may encounter during races. Each Raceboardblade version has a size of 9.5m2, but has been optimized for specific conditions to squeeze maximum performance and leave the competition with no chance.
The new Raceboardblade 9.5 is a 6-batten (3-camber) sail that provides tactical flexibility on the racecourse. It is placed between the ULW and HW sails, with a performance window optimized for the mid-range winds.
Sail Loftsails Raceboardblade Ultra Light Wind
Sail Loftsails Raceboardblade High Wind
Loftsails Raceboard High Wind is not the part of the package, you have to buy it separately!
Mast Loftsails Team Edition
UNIFIBER Raceboard Proteus II 378 Carbon + boardbag
However, what raceboard package would it be without a board? That's why we chose the Unifiber raceboard - the Proteus. The special, elongated shape of the Proteus, created by Marcos Ruesch from Argentina, offers unlimited performance on raceboard racing courses. Thanks to its high buoyancy, a super stable platform was achieved, which will perform perfectly in any wind conditions, regardless of the waves. Proteus provides excellent control both in downwind and upwind courses, allowing you to maintain speed with ease. We didn't choose this board without a reason, as its previous model has already proven its capabilities on race courses, ands the new model of Proteus only confirmed the strong position of its predecessor, providing Eric Belot with the first place in the Grand Masters category during the Masters World Championship at Lake Garda in 2022.
Features
- Full carbon sandwich construction to keep the hull weight as low as possible
- Allround race performance across a wide range of different body weights and wind strengths
- Registered to compete by the World Sailing International Raceboard Class
- Carbon daggerboard can be tuned in effective length and angles adapting to different conditions
- Supplied with a boardbag and a mast joint

Boom UNIFIBER Carbon ELITE Monocoque V2
The missing piece of the puzzle is the boom, and we chose the Unifiber Elite V2 for good reason! The Elite carbon fiber booms are custom-made from the highest quality pre-preg carbon fiber and are designed for professional users and ambitious amateurs seeking maximum stiffness and minimum weight. In addition to high-quality materials, the Modular collection stands out in the windsurfing world thanks to its pioneering "Configure Me" technology. With the new Unifiber booms, swapping the boom head is effortless and takes seconds - no tools required. For example: with 1 boom head, 3 boom bodies and 1 tail you have 3 high-performance booms of different sizes. This makes Modular booms much more versatile and budget-friendly than traditional boom options.
Unifiber Elite V2 with its modular head, stiffening screws, and super-light and rigid carbon construction will allow you to fully exploit the potential of your windsurfing setup.
Features
- Modular "Configure Me" RDM & SDM Compatible High Performance Boom Head
- Full carbon construction
- Ergonomic oval-shaped grip
- High density EVA grip sections on the front arch for maximum abrasion resistance
