GUNSAILS ZOOM 2026 LIGHTWEIGHT FREERIDE VELA WINDSURF

ZOOM 2026 – Freeriding made easy

Effortless onto the board, smooth into planing and with ease through every jibe – the ZOOM is your freeride sail for endless fun on the water. From the very first session it impresses with playful handling, balanced power and a geometry that gets you planing right away. For 2026, we have completely redesigned the foot area: reduced weight, less wear from friction and a new straight cut that eliminates several reinforcements previously needed. The tack area is now slimmer and more efficient – racing-inspired, but optimised for freeriding.

Key Facts:

• Redesigned foot area for less weight, reduced wear and a slimmer build
• Size-specific batten configuration: 5 battens (4.7–5.6), 6 battens (6.0–8.2)
• Light, neutral profile for effortless sailing
• Short boom for easy handling and maximum freedom of movement
• Quick, hassle-free trim thanks to FRED indicator
• Smooth planing and stable drive

A sail that fits you
Every size of the ZOOM is perfectly tuned to its intended use:

• 4.7–5.6 m²:  5 battens for maximum agility
• 5.7–6.9 m²:  6 battens (3 of them tube battens) for more stability and control
• from 7.2 m²: 6  battens with 5 tubes for maximum profile stability and top-end drive

This graduated batten configuration ensures the perfect mix of power, control and lightness in every size.

Rig up, ride off, enjoy
Thanks to the clear FRED trim indicator and moderate downhaul tension, the ZOOM is rigged in minutes. The neutral profile delivers smooth, even acceleration without throwing you off balance. The forces are positioned pleasantly far forward, allowing the sail to hold the perfect balance on its own – ideal for long planing runs, extended cruising or manoeuvre training.

Light handling, maximum comfort
The short boom makes every move easier – from uphauling to quick turns to jibing. In lighter winds, the ZOOM starts smoothly, then delivers noticeable drive to get you planing quickly. Even in the jibe, it stays light in the hand, responds precisely to your steering and makes every turn smooth.
