Description

COMBAT HD 2025

CORE WAVE - CLASSIC HEAVY DUTY

The Combat is our World Cup Team Riders' sail of choice. Completely redesigned in 2024, the main design features remain unchanged for 2025. A higher aspect design featuring a slightly longer mast, wider head and narrower boom greatly increases high end control in this year's edition of our best-selling wave sail.

HD construction provides pro-level construction techniques at an un-matched price point. The Ultra PE X-Ply sail body with an X-Ply centre window form an extremely durable sail which is still light in the hands. The introduction of Powerfuse in the tack and clew of our HD construction since 2024 represents a significant upgrade over previous HD models, providing a pro-level strength-to-weight ratio at a more affordable price than the Pro Fuse. 2.9 available only in Pro Fuse, 5.6 available only in Pro Fuse & HD.

DESIGN DRIVEN INNOVATION

Designed and tested at our NeilPryde Maui Design Center by Robert Stroj, then further developed through our team riders' feedback from across the world. No stone is left uncovered in our relentless drive to be the best at what we do.

In 2024, we re-invented our wave sail range from the bottom up. We started at the 3D design level, creating new panel layouts and using new materials to eliminate stitches, reduce weight and increase responsiveness. In 2025, the main design features remain unchanged, but we have improved material choices in the foot and clew for even greater durability.

The result is our best wave sail line up in the company's history.

Sail Features

DRIVE & ACCELERATION A new, higher aspect design carried over from 2024 with a slightly longer luff, narrower boom and bigger head gives the Combat excellent drive and acceleration whether on the wave or getting going in marginal conditions.
WIDE WIND RANGE Thanks to the re-designed outline, updated luff curve and new, larger panel layout, this is the most versatile version of this sail yet. Rig it full when the wind is light or you want to use a small sail for extra maneuverability, or pull on a little extra outhaul when rigging for over-powered conditions.
STABILITY Our latest luff curve and sail shaping stiffened up the sail very slightly compared to 2023 and the resulting 24/25 sails will remain stable even in high winds.
4 BATTEN LAYOUT Our new panel layout has drastically reduced the amount of stitches needed in the sail. This combined with carefully planned material selections allowed us to cut around 25% off the weight of the sails from model year 2023 to 24/25.

Extra power and stability for onshore wave sailing.

Ideal for bump and jump free-riding, small to medium wavs, intermediate level free-styling and free-riding.

Robert Stroj & Robby Swift

Robert Stroj - Designer
"In order to achieve the weight savings and performance enhancements that we were looking for in 2024, we redesigned our entire wave sail construction, all the way from the panel layout. We developed very specific materials across the range which enabled us to use larger individual panels with less seams."

Robby Swift - Pro Rider
"The Pro Fuse version is the epitome of all of our design knowledge and it is an amazing step forward. We have eliminated many seams from the sail. The Pro Fuse material itself is also significantly lighter than Powerfuse due to its construction and this has allowed us to make the sails a massive 25% lighter."

PRO FUSE vs HD

PRO FUSE: Ultimate performance, no expense spared pro construction featuring PRO FUSE and ULTRA SCRIM custom laminated panels.

COMBAT: Engineered for strength and economy from the ground up. Featuring POWERFUSE panels and ULTRA-PE TRIAX throughout. Clear centre window.
