All-round Wave, Stability & Control
The S2Maui Alchemy is an incredibly smooth, stable and versatile 5-batten wavesail with the greatest top-end wind range. New for 2024, Gradient Concept Warp-Path construction applies the highest strength, lowest stretch technical fabrics in the lower sail body and transitions to progressively lighter high-tech material as you move up the sail. The lower sail body is now built almost entirely with S2Maui’s exclusive, incredibly stable, extreme strength Carbon WX SpacelightTM which transitions to ultralight, strong and responsive TechnoraTM SpacelightTM throughout the upper sail body. The final result is incredible stability and an ultralight, smooth and reactive feeling without equal. Classic, neutral handling during wave riding combined with outstanding stability and power allow the Alchemy to excel in all high wind wave and bump ‘n’ jump conditions. Superior upwind ability gets you back to take off points faster, and its perfect balance gives confidence in the air. Covering and exceeding the abilities of traditional power, sideshore and bump ‘n’ jump sails, the Alchemy provides the magic combination of exceptional control, stability, power and effortless handling, no matter what the conditions.
Russ Faurot:
The Alchemy is the sail I choose when I want to blast around and jump high. I can ride it really powered up and keep control in the gusts! It is the most stable wave sail, planes early, and just goes faster when the wind really hits!
Artur Szpunar:
The 2024 Alchemy benefits from the exciting new Gradient Concept construction. Having the lower sail body built entirely with the virtually zero stretch Carbon WX SpacelightTM really allowed us to lock in the shape while the sails got even lighter, stronger and more responsive overall. Reducing the number of seams and increasing the use of the superlight TechnoraTM SpacelightTM in the upper sail body further reduced weight and impoved handling. WARP-PATH load oriented panels give the profile shaping full integrity and effectively distribute tension.
