Many sailmakers will tell you that there are many different types of wave sail and they back this up by producing three full ranges.Our experience has always been that wave conditions are many and varied and that few sailors are able to specialise in one specific 'style' of wave sailing. Our focus has been to produce one super adjustable sail that will cope with whatever's thrown at it.The 2009 Tushingham Rock builds on the reputation for all-round wave ability. Big variations in power can be achieved by using the outhaul as well as the downhaul. This makes for easier adjustment on the water, even during a competition wave heat. The new panel layout with 30mm double seams in all high stress areas, plus Tushingham's unique PVC crash panel incorporates many detail improvements for an incredibly high level of durability. Although very strong, the Tushingham 'Airframe' construction keeps the sail physically light and its aerodynamic efficiency makes the Rock feels remarkably light in the hands. It's what Ken Black calls his 'Forget about it' feel, allowing 100% concentration on the job in hand. Two new super small sizes extend the Rock's appeal to include storm-chasers and kids with a high level of wave ability.
