Pro Construction: Bi-Ply window, Scrim panels.
Extra control and range in wide ranging conditions, the all new Banzai Max Pro is the 5 batten wave sail. 5 Battens bring increased stability overall and higher top end speeds.
Handling characteristic: The lift is positioned slightly higher up and centered compared to the Banzai 11 Pro and Banzai Surf Pro which promotes a more upright but neutral feel. This gives a great drive and low end power but also great control in the high end.
Construction and materials:
- Main window panel – 6 mil Bi-PLY from Dimension Polyant features two 3 mil layers of PET film. This creates a softer hand, improved flex and reduced creasing. The UV inhibitors in the adhesive significantly increases the UV life of the product in comparison to a traditional monofilm.
- Foot/Tack panel – 4 mil Aramid Scrim has an upgraded scrim with larger denier fibers, while still keeping the high tenacity aramid X-PLY®. It has a much greater tear and puncture resistance at the highest impact of pure wave riding.
- Upper body color panels - 2.5 mil Scrim from Dimension-Polyant is a polyester scrim plus X-PLY® which are designed for reduced weight while still offering reduced stretch of a traditional X-PLY only product.
- Carbon stretch control tapes are produced using bundles of pretensioned carbon fiber to ensure low stretch and zero crimp. Upgraded PSA adhesive allows for aggressive tack. The use of these tapes allows for lighter and more efficient patch and sail reinforcement.
- Upper window panels – 4 mil high quality Monfofilm from Dimension Polyant.
- Double stitching – Around the main window.
- Dacron Leech edge reinforcement.
- Folded rear/cut edge on mast sleeve to prevent fraying.
