GATORÂ _PROGRESSIVE FREERIDE
The GATOR morphs two worlds into one – fusing the powerful shape of the NCX with a wave-inspired outline to create the definitive freemove sail. 100% X-ply construction ensures strength without a weight penalty.
A shorter boom length provides superior maneuverability while enhancing light, responsive handling across all conditions. The GATOR’s extended range technology minimises quiver complexity. Seven strategic sizes cover all conditions you’ll encounter.
The NEW GATOR feels featherlight in your hands, gets you going fast, and maximizes stoke on everything from butter-flat water to choppy bump & jump conditions. The built in stability keeps you locked into your stance in even the most testing scenarios, enabling you to move with enhanced confidence.
IT’S RIGHT FOR YOU IF…
You want to plane early, gybe easily, and make the most of any conditions on freeride or freewave boards.
THE TECH YOU GET
eM3 and eM4 premium X-Ply materials minimize weight while maximizing strength. SpiderFibre reinforcements strategically diffuse loads. Precision manufacturing ensures each sail delivers consistent performance.
THE FINAL WORD
The GATOR is the benchmark freemove sail. Lighter than competitors yet built from 100% X-ply, this sail delivers real crossover performance without compromise. Rig all sizes on a single 160-210 boom. Revolution simplified.

TECHNOLOGY
PREMIUM CONSTRUCTION
100% X-PLY CONSTRUCTION – Durability without the weight penalty.
eM3 & eM4 LAMINATES – Premium proprietary materials minimize weight while maximizing strength in critical areas.
PERFORMANCE FEATURES
XTENDED RANGE TECHNOLOGY – Eeach sail size covers a wider wind range.
SHORT BOOM LENGTHS – Better maneuverability and enhances light handling.
DEEP POWERFUL PROFILES – Provides rock-solid stability and control in challenging conditions.
BLADE-INSPIRED OUTLINE – Wave sail DNA for responsive handling across all conditions
NCX-DERIVED POWER DELIVERY – Freeride power for early planing and acceleration
FUNCTIONAL
ONE BOOM, FULL RANGEÂ – Rig all sizes on Enigma 160 boom.
SIMPLIFIED QUIVER – Seven sizes cover all conditions.
EM3
eM3 is developed to combine the performance of the e-series cloths with maximum durability.
The use in the upper panels reduces not only the overall sail weight but also the swing weight, aiding manoeuvrability and control. Used in the BLADE and in the FREEK.
BOOM HEIGHT REFERENCE
Boom height gauge for ease of reference.
CAMO 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.
SPIDERFIBRE
A web of fibreglass filament that disburses loads across seams and throughout the body of the sail. By using stronger, lighter fibres and reducing sail patching, we can measurably reduce weight and swing weigh and at the same time, increase strength.
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.
SEAMLESS FOOT CONSTRUCTION
A single panel in the foot area with hidden load patches and zero exposed stitching eliminates seam abrasion and seam creep in this high load area. Maximum durability and minimum weight.
TRIPLE LUFF PANELS
Triple luff panels help lock in deeper profiles for stability and Xtended range.
FULL X-PLY BODY
Full X-ply durability without the weight penalty typically associated with such robust construction.
