HORNET

Dedicated Performance RAF WindFoil

For those looking for windfoil freeride high-performance, simplicity and superlight
weight, without cams, the 2026 S2Maui HORNET will have you buzzing with joy.
In developing the 2026 HORNET we incorporated design elements from both our
latest EAGLE-FR Foil Race as well as the RAF BANSHEE for the ultimate windfoil
experience. A high aspect outline, lower foot and panel layout evolved from our
EAGLE-FR Foil Race sail is combined with a 6-batten RAF skeleton and a tighter,
foil specific leech twist profile. The 2026 HORNET sees increased use of Technora™
Spacelight™ and Light-Film™, which together with an improved, more progressive
twist profile make it lighter, more stable and responsive than ever. Powerful shaping
and high efficiency leech tension accelerates quickly, lifting you up on the foil, while
perfect balance and more forward draft position give outstanding stability and glide
during flight. The HORNET is the perfect wind foil engine for the majority of riders,
providing a high performance outline with the simplicity and light weight of a no-cam.

Micah Buzianis:
“The new HORNET is bred from all our work on the EAGLE-FR packaged into
a lighter, more user friendly sail. It has quickly become the perfect all around foil
freeride sail, light weight, easy to rig, stable and great all around range. Rotation is
smooth and easy, making foiling gybes a breeze!!”

Artur Szpunar:
The 2026 HORNET uses elements of the new “Turbo Leech” profile that we developed
in the most recent Eagle-FR racesails. This improves acceleration, top speed and
stability. Increased use of our technical materials reduces weight further.
