VENOM-XI
SLALOM RACE
The New 2026 VENOM-XI powers ahead of the competition as S2Maui’s iconic flagship race sail! 2026 Venom-XI development and testing has been pushed to the next level by our strongest team of riders ever, including top PWA pros Bruno Martini, Lohan Jules, Brendan Lorho, former world champion Micah Buzianis and US National champ Mark Boersma. The 2026 VENOM-XI is built upon Artur Szpunar and Barry Spanier’s legacy of design experience and optimized for winning performance in modern PWA Slalom-X and IFCA Fin Slalom disciplines. 2026 VENOM-XI design improvements have unleased massive horsepower for instantaneous acceleration and a slippery aerodynamic profile for limitless top
speed. The 2026 VENOM-XI accelerates out of the jibes and blazes down the straights, giving its rider the advantage needed to finish first! The VENOM-XI is also a lethal weapon for speed sailing as demonstrated this year at the La Palme Speed World Championship where S2Maui rider Brendan Lorho, at only 75kg and using a production Venom-X 5.6, set the 2nd fastest speed only a half knot behind the 100+kg champion, Antoine Albeau.
S2Maui is 100% dedicated to provide the ultimate performance race sails that allow riders to achieve their winning goals and S2Maui VENOM riders have to date claimed 2 PWA Slalom World championships, IFCA World Championship, Defi Wind championship and countless National titles. Soon after joining the team, it was great to see S2Maui VENOM rider Bruno Martini showing dominant speed flying far ahead of the world’s best to take an elimination win in Fuerte and achieve his personal best final result there. Similarly, Defi Champ and S2Maui teammate Lohan Jules is becoming a consistent finals contender. Young Brendan Lorho has been untouchable on his S2Maui VENOM, winning PWA Youth U21 contests in Aruba,
Bonaire and Sylt as well as the Youth Speed World title!
The 2026 S2Maui VENOM-XI is pure, no compromise slalom race performance designed for
champions.
Bruno Martini:
“After using the first time the VENOM-XI, I was immediately impressed by the stability and the nice drive
of the sail. It instantly feel comfortable and fast without any specific tune. Is definitely one of the best sails
that I ever ride.”
