Banzai Surf Iris Carbon , Control Surf Wave – Four Batten Maneuver orientated wave sail
A focus on maximum maneuverability and control in surf and surf like conditions.
This all new design has a very neutral feel. You are free to draw your own lines on the wave and surf exactly how you want.
Effortless drive and lightness allowing you to sail for hours.
Handling Characteristic: Banzai Surf Iris Carbon is a bit more high aspect with a shorter boom compared to Banzai 11 Pro and Banzai Max this combined with the lower and more centered positioned lift gives you a balanced neutral feel for maximum control and maneuverability.
This also makes the sail feel super light in your hands allowing you to sail for longer and be in complete control when wave riding.
The power never pulls too much or too little but is always there when you need it.

Carbon Construction:
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 life of the product in comparison to traditional monofilm.
Upper window panels: 4 mil high quality Monfofilm from Dimension Polyant.
Upper color body panels: 1.5 mil Ultra low stretch linear Warp Carbon fiber laminate yarns arrayed to control load lines in the sail combined with super strong Technora aramid X-Ply. Warp Carbon gives incredible linear control of the sail profile while also allowing a dynamic, torsional, bias stretch and return. This makes the sails feel very quiet, weightless and very resistant to being overpowered.
Lower 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.
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.
- Double stitching around the main window.
- Dacron Leech edge reinforcement.
- Folded rear edge on mast sleeve to prevent fraying.
Carbon advantages:
- Upper body panels are 1.5 mil Warp Carbon, film for emphasis on light weight and profile stability.
- Overall improved handling.
- Improved stability in the mid to high end wind range due to the warp carbon.
- More reactive and lighter feeling.
- Warp Carbon reinforced Technora X-ply for foundational profile stability in the shape design of the sail plus excellent durability.
