about the sail
Back in the range, the Atlas offers a predictable, stable and friendly ride, ideal to use in on-shore wave conditions. Early to plane, the Atlas is up and ready to get into the action with efficient, usable power at all times. Featuring great upwind ability and acceleration, the Atlas pushes hard, when conditions are less than ideal and its high lift characteristics propel you up high in the air during jumps.

Mast bend curve and Sail-Mast compatibility
NeilPryde sails are designed around specific mast bend curves following Progresssive Flex concept.
Shorter masts 340cm and 370cm have a Flex Top curve,
larger sizes from 400cm to 490cm follow a Constant Curve Flex Top,
and two largest sizes, 520cm and 550cm are Constant Curve masts.
Using a proper NeilPryde mast with a NeilPryde sail will guarantee maximum rig performance.
