FREEK_FREESTYLE
The Freek is pure freestyle performance. The 5-batten frame provides superior stability and wind range while maintaining a weight profile that outperforms most 4-batten competitors. Mission critical.
A precise balance between luff curve and seam shaping enables the Freek to inflate rapidly for explosive power and pop, yet neutralizes instantly for reliable ducking. Higher skin tension locks down stability and extends functional range. The elevated centre of lift dramatically increases leverage – loading up for massive height and instant release.
SEVERNE’s advanced Gradient Panel Technology strategically reduces weight, controls stretch, and maximizes power transfer. Precision construction delivers competition-winning performance straight off the rack. The undisputed benchmark in freestyle sails. Battle-tested by world champions.

TECHNOLOGY
DOUBLE SEAMS
All Severne wave sails have 25mm double stitched window seams. The wider, single colour seam tape ensures maximum tear strength and crash resistance
CAMO THERMOFORMED TACK FAIRING
Protects your board from impact and neatly covers the foot detailing. It incorporates the rope stash pocket for easy storage of your downhaul rope.
MOLDED SOFT EDGE
With recessed grooving, covering any vulnerable stitching the moulded soft edge encloses the hard edge long the foot of the sail and protects the stitching from wear along the board non-skid.
EM4 HIGH LOAD LAMINATE
Based on the proven eM3 platform, the high load eM4 material features twice the amount of X-Ply fibre and increased film thickness to maximise durability. This new material allows weight reduction whilst maintaining puncture resistance and tear strength. Used in the lower impact zone in the sail.
GRADIENT PANEL TECHNOLOGY
Using the new GRADIENT PANEL TECHNOLOGY. Corners have overlapped panels which reduces the amount of patching. At the same time these overlapped areas extend into the body of the sail so it transitions the load much better, will be less stretch over time. It’s a more stable way of building sails.
“Faster rotations, even easier control & lighter weight make the Freek future-proof yet accessible for all levels of Freestyle“

GRADIENT PANEL TECHNOLOGY
With the new GRADIENT PANEL TECHNOLOGY improvements are obvious. Lighter weight and better stability.

The GRADIENT PANEL TECHNOLOGY logically reduces weight, increases strength and controls stretch. Overall weight is reduced but the more significant improvement is the feel – quicker reacting and lighter feel.
Rather than a single curved luff panel, we use separate panels – split luff – that radiate out of the head and tack corners. This perfectly aligns the sail material with the direction of load.
Previously the curved panel would have bias stretch in all the wrong places. Direct transmission of power. Increased longevity.

FAQ
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE FREEK AND THE FOILFREEK?
Both sails perform well in light winds, but the FoilFreek will generate more lift due to its higher aspect design, and thus, slightly earlier planing/flight. The Freek, however, will provide a wide wind range in both upper and lower limits.
If you are mostly foiling, the FoilFreek is your go-to sail. If you freestyle on the fin, the Freek is the right sail for you.
The FREEK is 5 battens.
The FREEK is more stable.
The FREEK has a bigger wind range.
The FOILFREEK planes earlier.
The FREEK is a dedicated fin-freestyle sail.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FREEK AND A BLADE?
The Freek is a true freestyle-orientated sail with all the characteristics that go with it; A bigger stretch of the mast sleeve for instant power and depower, and a tighter leech among others.
The Blade is wave orientated, locking the power in one place, making it more neutral in both jumps and riding.
WHY DOES THE FREEK HAVE 5 BATTENS?
Maximum stability for ducking the sail.
Maximum stability throughout the wind range.
Adding stability while being lighter than most of the 4-batten sails on the market.
Smooth power delivery.
WHERE CAN I ORDER SPARE PARTS OR MATERIALS TO REPAIR MY SAIL?
You can order spare parts and repair material from your local dealer or distributor. Use the dealer locator to find your nearest SEVERNE dealer.
CAN I USE A NON-SEVERNE MAST IN MY SAILS?
All of our development, testing, rigging, and tuning are done using Severne masts. We don’t test the performance or bend curves of other masts, and can not guarantee which performance or durability you can get out of your sail using a different brand mast. Therefore, we strongly recommend our customers use SEVERNE masts.
