DUALIST ULTRA
Wave Riding Purist
Since introducing the ULTRA-HMPE™ ultralight Dyneema™ construction, the
thought on all our top wave-riders minds was “wouldn’t it be sick to build the
DUALIST in the Ultra construction”, so we did it! The 2026 S2Maui DUALISTULTRA
must be the lightest and most agile wave-riding sail on the planet and is a
perfect example of S2Maui’s passion for innovative design and continuous search
for the next performance breakthrough. Specialized for down-the-line, wave riding
purists, the sensation of the S2Maui 2-batten DUALIST can only be described as
insanely light and agile with tons of drive. These characteristics, combined with the
quick response of a tighter leech and instant power/depower of the 2-batten skeleton,
certainly give you some new angles and opens your mind to possibilities that didn’t
exist before. It provides an advantage for fitting into “unmakeable” sections of the
wave and leaves you scratching your head, thinking “did I really pull that off?” We
are having lots of fun with these at Ho’okipa.
Russ Faurot:
“The DUALIST is basically my down the line dream sail. It’s an extreme design
and I had no idea what to expect when first trying it out but it blew me away.
It’s incredibly light, very stable and has the perfect amount of drive. I couldn’t
ask for anything more.”
Artur Szpunar:
We were all very excited to get these on the water! The ULTRA Dyneema™ material
suits a wave riding sail perfectly and with only 2-battens, it’s hard to comprehend
how insanely light the DUALIST ULTRA feels without trying it! Stability in the
2-batten skeleton of the DUALIST is made possible by the application of our centerof-
effort balanced, FocusPoint™ profile shaping method. This must be the lightest,
most maneuverable wave sail on the water – a game changer in terms of agility on the
wave. Handles smoothly even in the gusts.
